    Did you read the post?
Yes. Remember, I linked to it. And, as painful as it was, I did read the whole thing.

    White men, on the other hand, have the power to not hire her, to fire her, and so forth.
So the implication is that a majority of these white men in position of power are bigoted? I think an alternative explanation for her not getting hired is that maybe she didn't meet their standards. I understand that this is maybe a difficult conclusion to accept if you're a female supremacist with a fragile ego.

    Why are you mounting an all-out attack against her because you were reminded of her thesis?
I think the attack is well-deserved for reasons that should be obvious by now.

Please address my points.

If you read the whole thing, you should have read that she says that your self hate isn't what she wants. She explicitly says that's useless.

If white men aren't responsible, then who is?

Her perceived attack is completely without power. She has no power to harm you. She addresses this in the post. So why do you feel so hurt? Why is it so painful?

Who hurt you, buddy?

Please remember that your guilt is pointless. Pointless. Nobody wants you to self-hate. Your intentions can be noble and pure, your prejudices (which you do have, just like anyone else) can be unintentional, and you can still be taking up unwarranted space.

    If white men aren't responsible, then who is?
Maybe she is responsible for her own failures. What a radical idea is that?

    Who hurt you, buddy?
Please, I'm not your buddy.

According to whom? A deranged feminist blogger? Maybe her opinion does not matter for a reason.
