Saturday Night Live star Michael Che condemned the hatred being stoked by President Donald Trump’s supporters against recipients of SNAP benefits, also known as “food stamps.”
In a fiery Instagram post, Che wrote, “This SNAP freeze is really f---ed up. and I keep seeing a lotta racist videos celebrating (mostly black) families not being able to buy groceries. There’s this weird idea that since some people have taken advantage of welfare benefits in the hood, NOBODY should receive help, at all...?“
Che continued, “This country is built on greedy motherf----rs taking shortcuts and gaming the system to their benefit, but for some reason, when poor people find a way to turn nickel into a dime, they’re judged more severely, especially blacks. I know the whole hustle is to hate each other here so we can fight in the comments and up our engagements. but let’s draw the line at feeding the poor.”
