White people need to reclaim our decimated heritages (& therefore stop being "white people" in the sense of homeless hungry ghosts vulnerable to authoritarianism).

Centrists will have sth bad to say about it. They'll make it into an ism or other because they are afraid to grow
Members of minority groups who have fallen into the faux power of #cancelculture bullying will hate it too if their prejudice has hardened them so much nto seeing all people who are white as "white people" that they find they can't soften the fuck up again.
Leftists who feel all this smells a bit "right-wing" will hate it too if they see humans in tedious reductionist capitalist terms.

But history, place-connection, people, culture all matter. They determine your strength. Of course white people are fragile. We are like
spindly thin reeds with nutrient deficiencies in a cyclone. Is anyone surprised at this? We too have been products and victims of the capitalist system.

It *feels* like ppl think it's Pauline Hanson territory to examine all this stuff. But it's the history of our own decimations
I'm tired of the framing of white people as if we are all elites who willed the capitalist deathcult but not acknowledge we are also victims of the sacking and looting of our own multiple indigenous cultures long, long ago.
