Still, not sure I completely get it. Same. One legitimate criticism of how rich people interact with the economy is that rich people have a tendency to hoard their money instead of pumping it back into the economy. Spending all your dough may look tacky and ostentatious, but it creates more jobs than piling it up in a vault.
So this guy’s thinking is contorted in fascinating ways. I am starting to wonder, though, does being a bad thinker make you more likely to be racist? Or does racism harm your thinking? Both?

Black people aren’t supposed to have inherited wealth, therefore all rich black people are nouveau riche (new rich). In a spectacular display of racist logic this chud is saying that spending with abandon is something only a newly rich black person would do.
