Thanks for this, and I stand not with you but not against you. I believe identity politics is fraudulent politics. It seeks to identify with a group based on skin color, then call out a common gripe, then capitalize on it as a tool to recruit that group. White privilege is a byproduct of this fraud, attempting to fight racism with more racism, rounding up victims on one side, to throw rocks at purported villains on the other. I have no interest in white people, protecting white people, or standing in the white people's camp and fighting their wars. I'm Irish, Kenyan-born, raised in Italy, then in anti-Irish England in the 70's when it was very uncool to be Irish. No white allegiance here. I simply do not believe in the alleged benefits of shouting white privilege. It's an extension of the scam we've been falling for. Good news: Joe Biden is a color-blind democrat who seeks good in all people regardless of their skin color. I'm with Joe Biden.
