White People Can't Criticize White People on behalf of their Whiteness, Now? *
White people dismissing other white people's views on the basis of them being white is really a trend I could do without.
Oy. Some White people use their whiteness in wiley ways...
Other white folk notice this, and call out their pretentiousness. Don't be afraid. Just... don't use your Whiteness, or membership in da club, to advance yourself. Because it is going to get cold, and critical, out here for many who are not used to those things, I am afraid...
