Today we’re seeing the result of nearly 400 years of white-American fabrication of this ideal of whiteness. In other words… way beyond the point where white folk would just say… “hey we’ve been messing up, we better just stop.” No after 400 years… whatever is still going, will not stop by the devices of those in error - they must be saved. Only, saved from themselves.
As it is with smear campaigns and other hallmarks of abusive personalities, racism really backfires on “white people” even if they are not a racist personally, because there’s no way to distance themselves from the social outcomes of collective racism. You’re stuck with the baggage no matter what! I get that.
For the non-racist white mind - the psychological cost of participating in or going along with the enforcement of white supremacy (the colonial macro-economy) still exist. This is problematic and cannot be understated. But we know now that many deaths of despair (suicides) are from White Men who detest the effects of ongoing racism and grossness of their cohort’s behavior (Rest In Peace Robin Williams, Anthony Bourdain, and my late friend, Brotha Phillipians).
Either way - racist or not - inherited psychopathy is quite the serious matter. When people hand down the game, and the attitudes necessary to maintain white-priority to their offspring, the young have little choice but to become malignant themselves. The gifted white man is vexed by the situation. The gifted white girl is speechless - she doesn’t have the words to express how she feels. So no one knows. They’ve told me though. PREED is my response.
And where we live today on the frontier of the timeline of Human progress, the game has been going on so long, everyone we know was born into it, and raised by adults who were born in it. All of us, completely born into iniquity; disorder. There is a psychological cost for having been handed down such levels of disorientation, and I think we are living in the days when the lies have come full circle.
