Guy who understands nothing about the workings of cities: “I just can’t understand what is racist about people leaving their crime infested decaying cities for a new suburb”

Like how do you not understand what White Flight is and how it is caused, the urban crime is the direct result of white flight taking away resources from the inner city leading to the neighborhoods of people who couldn’t afford to leave to become poorer, and those neighborhoods were usually black due to redlining and racial covenants. Even if someone is not leaving the city because of black people being there, they are usually leaving because of the negative effects of the white people leaving due to those white peoples racism
