You know that part of Huckleberry Finn where his dad goes on a racist tirade? That was actually criticism of poor whites being ok with their shit conditions simply because they could look down on black people. Twain was based as fuck for his time period.

Mark Twain’s quotes are my goto in many situations. He is based AF, indeed.
