It more about "Wealthy White Men, who want to retain the Political, Economic and Industrial Seats of Dominance.... by ANY MEANS... They create these narratives.
It has very little to do with poor working class whites, because they are not much more than pawns of the wealthy, who feed them any lie, to get them to back and support "Wealthy White Men of White Nationalism, and their Agenda of Wealthy White Male Dominance'....
Sadly, working poor and dire poor white people are led today, the same as they were for 100's of years to "vote for the 'Wealthy White Man" while blinding themselves to the fact it is the Wealthy White Male Establishment, that fights against higher wages, fights against better medical care, fights again earning enough to buy foundation built homes.
It's why there are so many white people Living in ... "Tornado Magnet Mobile Homes" in the Middle of Tornado Alley, and the wealthy white man of white nationalism, who controls, Industry, Finance, Banking and Wages. Simply, "don't care" they see these white people as , "Self Replicating and Disposable, and Replacable" and when they get sick and can no longer make money for the wealthy, they are treated no different than Poor whites and slaves... they are "left to die" and the quicker they die, the better the wealthy feel about it.
- The wealthy NEVER wanted any tax money to go to anything that benefits and help the working poor white people or the black people.
Anything that helps the working poor whites people and black people, is seen by the wealthy white men of white nationalism who's goal is wealthy white male dominance... consider any help to poor whites and blacks... is seen as taking the dominance power away from Wealthy White Men of White Nationalism and Wealthy White Male Dominance.
Their agenda has always been to "Dominate" and "Dictate" public policy and living standards for the poor working whites and black people, and they have NEVER lied the thought or concept of women, being "independent economically", because it is seen as a threat to the power wealthy white men have always had over women, and when she does not need him for money and upkeep... he become threatneed and becomes extremely vicious toward women in general. He has never wanted to loose control over women, poor whites or black people. Politically and Economically.

Racial segregation as a way of life did not come about as a natural result of hatred between the races immediately after the Civil War. There were no laws segregating the races then. And as the noted historian, C. Vann Woodward, in his book, The Strange Career of Jim Crow, clearly points out, the segregation of the races was really a political stratagem employed by the emerging Bourbon interests in the South to keep the southern masses divided and southern labor the cheapest in the land.
You see, it was a simple thing to keep the poor white masses working for near-starvation wages in the years that followed the Civil War. Why, if the poor white plantation or mill worker became dissatisfied with his low wages, the plantation or mill owner would merely threaten to fire him and hire former Negro slaves and pay him even less. Thus, the southern wage level was kept almost unbearably low.
Toward the end of the Reconstruction era, something very significant happened. (Listen to him) That is what was known as the Populist Movement. (Speak, sir) The leaders of this movement began awakening the poor white masses (Yes, sir) and the former Negro slaves to the fact that they were being fleeced by the emerging Bourbon interests. Not only that, but they began uniting the Negro and white masses (Yeah) into a voting bloc that threatened to drive the Bourbon interests from the command posts of political power in the South.
To meet this threat, the southern aristocracy began immediately to engineer this development of a segregated society.

President Lyndon B. Johnson once said,
“If you can convince the lowest white man he’s better than the best colored man, he won’t notice you’re picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he’ll empty his pockets for you.”
