Just finished Robin DiAngelo's insane "White Fragility." And it is insane. But there's good news for Robin DiAngelo: precisely because it is unfalsifiable, cultish bulls***, the mere fact that I say it is unfalsifiable, cultish bulls*** is evidence of my white fragility!
This is literally the entire book. White people are solely responsible for racism; they are especially responsible for racism if they consider themselves non-racist; if they deny any of her claims, it is because they suffer from unacknowledged "whiteness."
All dissent is turned into evidence of undiagnosed racism. And the only person who can cleanse you of your racist thetans is, of course, Robin DiAngelo. My God, what a beautiful scam.
And it all makes white woke people feel INCREDIBLE, because they have ultimate power! They are the only people who matter in the universe. They are the only people who can solve racism. Black people have no agency at all in Robin DiAngelo's world.
