I agree to some extent, but there are emotional aspects to oppression / discrimination that are difficult to understand if you haven’t experienced it personally.

But there’s an even more egregious and insidious lie here: the idea that a person can be reduced to their social identity / group membership, and that this gives a complete understanding of somebody’s life. Many people nowadays are even offended when you tell them they can’t know if I’ve had an easy life or not by looking at my skin and knowing what my parents did for a living.
