> So if I pushed back on the notion that my identity is a "malignant, parasitic-like condition to which 'white' people have a particular susceptibility" [1], by e.g. stating it is merely "okay", that would be racist?

If you push back on it /using far right slogans/ of course it's racist.

> When they see we're not resisting, they'll tone down the rhetoric until we all get along. Because that's what has been happening so far - as we get closer to equality, the rhetoric is becoming milder and milder, right?

The problems that you think you have - that you're not allowed to express yourself in terms of far right slogans - are fucking pathetic and you should be ashamed of yourself for pursuing them. You have been clearly been given a life of privilege, because people who experience poverty or racism don't pick such cringeworthy fights, divorced from the suffering and problems of the real world.

I think we agree. As the experts tell us, whites have no legitimate issues to complain about, face negligible adversity, get lots of unfair advantages by virtue of their unearned privilege, at the expense of other groups, who suffer greatly due to the near-exclusive fault of whites.

So it is completely justified to interpret even their smallest act of self-defense as not defense, but a hateful attack. That is why being defensive, which one might otherwise argue is a natural, healthy reaction, is rightly pathologized in whites [1].

Thank you for educating me. I will strive to do better and avoid such far-right, hateful positions, like claiming my group is okay, should not be hated, or has a right to exist.
