And what if the white people have all the money and all the best schools?

Certain german guy said the same, except he used "jews" instead of "white people".

Stop thinking like him.

And today's Godwin Award goes to "affirmative action is like what the man who oversaw the Holocaust said".

Racism against white people is still racism.

Pointing out the effects of systemic racism. Is not racism. But a strawman is a strawman.

White people have it good. Equality feels like oppression when you’re privileged.

You seem to misunderstand.

Prejudice exists throughout all people and cultures.

White Supremacy is a focused method of prejudice.

Racism is a tool of white supremacy.

Racism towards Jews, PoC, indigenous, etc. has created societal disparities.

White people are not victims of those societal disparities, and cannot be a target of racism, because again, racism is a specific tool of white supremacy.

You're thinking of prejudice, which will never go away.

But racism can go away.
