Yeah...... again. White society engages in a lot of pontification about socialism & capitalism & this & that & it’s really just about whiteness & we need to get real about that. Black ppl have never had full freedom here & white society never expresses equal outrage about that
There’s a lot of white people who have no comment when Black ppl are being killed, beaten, imprisoned, silenced by the government. But then they suddenly have eloquent arguments to make about protecting the constitutional rights of the white racists they claim to disagree with
They will swear up and down it’s a good faith argument, lean on their advanced education & cite various philosophers & literature to make a case that they’ve convinced themselves is rooted in objectivity. But what truly motivates them is concern in seeing challenge to white power
