Washington State University is amplifying claims that farmers markets and food charities are examples of “white supremacy” and “white dominant culture.” It has nothing to do with helping farmers thrive. This is about creating left-wing social justice activists.

Chances are that they have never been to a 'Farmers Market', but are regurgitating some trope that some professor had stated in class as doctrine.
At a Farmers market you will find fruits, vegetables, cheese , and sauces all at 20%- 30% less cost than retail in the stores; and many of these are 'organically grown'.
Growers are everything from commercial farms, to backyard growers, to middlemen who buy at cut-rate and then sell, in all kinds of weather from their appointed stalls.
So they get their Caesar salad topped with feta and croutons, and then dine on risotto with lemon-garlic sauce with little understanding of how it got on their plate
They demonstrate their arrogance, and yet because they have never experienced a farmers market, they call it "racist", the ultimate reply of stupidity and ignorance,
especially when they don't know what to say, or have any intellectual rebuttal.
Calling something that you haven't experienced "racist" is a 'cop out'.
When hard times come, most of them will starve once the shelves are bare; they think that chocolate milk comes from brown cows,
and that vegetables are grown within foam packages with saran wrap, all that you need to do is bend over and harvest off the ground.
They prove that 'ignorance is bliss', and have no appreciation for those that work with their bodies and their minds to overcome insects, weather, cropp failures, etc.,
to produce foods for their snacks and dinner.
They resent private enterprise, self reliance, and people who work. These things are an offense every good collectivist who want to take all private property collectivize it, and and make dole out slops for the proles as they see fit!
Only bleeding heart white american women beat themselves up and apologize for being one of a world superminority, that resides in one of the few countries in the world where they could be safe in their lives and homes. And only a mental case would insist that same world superminority surrender their interests to world majorities, magically transformed by race hustlers and deathmerchants into ‘American minorities”, simply because the world superminority has managed against all odds to advance beyond the majority who couldn’t or couldn’t be bothered to get it together.
Back in my old town in Maryland, there were TWO farmers markets. There was one that was regularly open on the bypass road called Knills, which offered a variety of things during the week, including homemade pies on the weekend. There were all kinds of fresh veggies, including some you wouldn’t find in the grocery store.
The other one convened regularly on summertime Wednesdays in a parking lot downtown and sold all sorts of things, including more pies.
After I buy a house here in Florida, I will be on the hunt for farmers markets in the area. Given the climate, they’re likely open all year in the Pensacola area.
One of the interesting things about humans is we are the only species that shares food outside of a parent/child or pregnant female/male relationship.
We will not only allow those outside our pack to eat with us but will actively take food to strangers in need.
This is a quite unique phenomenon so she is striking at the very heart of what it means to be human.
I have occasionally toyed with the idea that what they actually want is humanity pre-fire but it might be much more then that.
They might want to take us all the way back to pre-human.
Check with any of the local leaders (municipal, church, etc.), as they would welcome your local financial support.
Buy locally and support your neighbors, and earn mutual respect for person and the produce (which is probably less expensive).
I’m about ready to sue the state to re-name the University to something other than the state name, like Western Communist Indoctrination Site.
I’ve already stopped giving to the Salvation Army as of two days ago (when I read that article on Freep about them telling us we are all irredeemable racists).
Next it’s the local food bank, which I’ve given to for years, calling me a “racist.”
I’m giving it all to the local animal shelter this year (not kidding) - oh and some to keep this site up and running too.
