They are woke because they have potential to improve lives regardless of class, race, or gender. Obviously they should have to “earn” those improvements by buying a car instead.
Quite literally this is why a lot of public transit got cancelled and destroyed - it made it easier for “those people” to come to the wealthier white parts of the city. In my city they literally built an interstate straight through downtown to make it harder for the large black population here to get out of the traditionally-black parts of the city.
I keep recommending The Color of Law: A Forgotten History of How Our Government Segregated America by Richard Rothstein. In the book, he documents how the modern suburb was created through zoning in order to keep Black people out by making living there too expensive, both through the land cost and the car needed to navigate it. It’s really crazy just how open and deliberate it was!
