The reality is the civil rights movement is both about increasing the social power of non-white citizens AND decreasing the social power of white citizens.
The former is what usually feels okay for white citizens, but the latter tends to be what white folks call “reverse racism”. It doesn’t feel great losing the social power tied to your caste, but it’s necessary to create an equal opportunity society.
The hoops many progressives jump through to justify them institutionalizing racism is appalling.
Instead of housing, educating, and providing daycare and after school programs historically discriminated and low income populations we’re just going to discriminate against white people and call them racist or snowflakes if they speak up.
I believe this kind of behavior is just one of many that is helping feed into this funnel of anger and hate.
