If you Look at Londons development through the industrial Revolution with the factories in the centre of the city. The wind blows west to east and all the poor housing is in the east end and the fancy housing is the clean west end. The poor will always be oppressed and I’m sure this hasn’t changed to this day.

Calling it racism to draw attention and be pc. If you would call it inherited poverty because of cruel capitalism it would be true, but then they would call you a communist.

Same thing when Europe tries to reach certain climate goals, we moved all the manufacturers to Asia and the pollution too. It’s a global issue as well, the poor get the garbage.

At first it was about segregation when it came to developing towns and cities but now its more about low-income than racism. So superficially it seems its racism but in actuality its because low-income is more prevalent among poc.
