I didn’t have this on my bingo card for today:
Folks, this is what identity politics brainwashing looks like.
This is what’s birthed from a marriage of ignorance and privilege.
Imagine believing that your race determines the quality of the cards you choose to buy. 🤦🏻♂️
📠 The facts: Better collections are built with better finances, not your race.
Asians do far better in the US financially than any other race*, hence they’re able to afford cards that the hobby hive mind deems “aesthetic”.
- Median net worth: $579K Asians, $188K for Whites
- Median household income: $98K Asians, $68K for Whites, and $45K for Blacks
Disparities in access to scarce resources (like cool cards) can almost always be explained by factors other than race.
I recommend hitting ‘unfollow’ whenever you see someone advocating for this type of garbage. Your collecting enjoyment and mental health will improve. 📈
