I have a lot of new followers! Welcome! Let me make something clear, though. I'm not here to advocate for a "white identity" or "white culture" in any respect. I'm against all identity politics and advocate for liberal principles and the real meaning of colorblindness.
The real meaning of colorblindness is lost in all of these Woke distortions. It means not ascribing social significance to racial categories and/or minimizing it, not ignoring any possible relevance. It doesn't mean ignoring racism or people ("racism blindness").
Colorblindness means that when we evaluate someone, we evaluate them as an individual. Individuals can, in fact, suffer racial discrimination, racism, and other genuine injustices. Groups, however, cannot. "Colorblindness" means minimizing the "group" aspect.
It is perfectly consistent and the right ethical position in our free, liberal societies not to judge or prejudge people based upon their outward characteristics but instead on the contents of their characters and merits of their achievements AND to be willing to hear.
It has always been and remains my position that racism is not best answered by more racism, identity politics are not best answered by more identity politics. This is a strong, popular, mainstream position that we're being misled to believe is fringe, radical, and racist.
