In thirty-four years of living in America, I have never faced the problem of radical racial resistance from committed individualists, many of whom fall within the conservative camp. They have mostly accepted me as an individual and treated me as an equal. My race to them was neither a qualifier nor a disqualifier, but a sociological marker which, as far as I could tell, was irrelevant to how I performed. In my experience with far-left progressives there exists an insidious racism that is often hard to diagnose. Their sense of their own whiteness required black helplessness and inadequacy to shore up a sense of guilt, which would then prompt action on their part, from which they could seek redemption and contrition.
There is unbridled hubris behind such psychic exploitation, because one needs to posit an inferior before one can masochistically experience redemption from some perceived wrong one has inflicted against another. That wrong, which the so-called progressive feels she or he has wielded, is white privilege.

“So, what did I do in the face of the holder of this white privilege? I committed the worst crime possible: I communicated that it was a farce. I laughed at it, made it clear I was unharmed by it, rendered the holders irrelevant, and incurred their repressed but seething wrath.”
Good for him. Some bridges are worth burning.
That is half what is happening. Our whole social and educational structure is feminizing men and the whole nation. On the other hand if you "act black" your are accused of Cultural Appropriation which is to say you are flaunting White Privilege when you should be tugging your forelock.
Actually it is Insecurity with a pose of Superiority born from an inner fear that one is inferior.
“Actually it is Insecurity with a pose of Superiority born from an inner fear that one is inferior.”
Maybe he secretly feels overwhelmed by the responsibility. Nevertheless, he should be implementing more systematic testing so we can understand what we’re facing. Yes, that does make a difference. And it’s better than “shut up and do exactly what I say, or people will die because of you”.
