Yes, this is true that whiteness maintains itself through expansion. It’s a good point which on closer examination completely shifts the lens to view the problem correctly. I need to keep in mind that anti blackness is the root cause of dislike for other minorities who aren’t black. Some of which they engage in themselves.

Thank you for refocusing me on the point. Especially since I firmly believe that whiteness is just a socialization process and the features may change over time as to who qualifies as white.

Ugh this makes me upset because it means we are still in the infantile stages. We are focusing on black lives when the only way to address racism is though detailed examination and deconstruction of whiteness.

Of course who wants to do this as a non white person the subject of their socialization and culture is so boring to repeat. It’s just basic caste systems 101 but it’s like everyone just ignores this.
