    "what we crave tells us what kind of emotion we're trying to escape from, numb, or comfort" is a huge connection piece. When food becomes a crutch to compensate for how we're feeling and what we don't want to feel the habit doesn't get disrupted/broken until we acknowledge and investigate the source of the emotion.

    One can only think they have white privilege, if they believe that white people are a superior race. This is basically pushing white supremacist ideology. See the thing about all racial supremacists of all races is, they try to install racial hierarchies and classify different races with levels of privilege, which they later use to segregate and discriminate people based on their skin color. The only difference is which race is on the top of that racial hierarchy. If you are teaching your race that they must humble themselves and lower themselves to accommodate other races, you are announcing to the world that you recognize your race as a superior race.

    One of my favorite interview responses ever was from Coleman Hughes, who is, in my opinion, the best young writer in politics today, not merely the best black writer or best writer on race issues. Following Roland Fryer's work, Coleman has argued that police shootings are not statistically motivated by race - the data - and the dramatic examples of police violence routinely cited are mirrored in white victims - the stories. He additionally advocates for color blind policies, as in a Ted Talk he recently gave whose promotion was curtailed due to complaints from folks like these. (It was only released on the condition he debate someone with an opposing view, something I think unique to his talk.) That's the background. So in an interview, he's asked about the allegation that white people listen to him in order to assuage their guilt. I can't find the exact response, so this is my less eloquent paraphrase: "If white people listen to me to absolve a sense of guilt, then I'm glad. They shouldn't feel guilty for wrongs they didn't commit. They don't deserve to feel miserable over things they have no control over. There's a long-standing push, coming from elite institutions and being shoved downward, to make white people feel collective guilt. If I can do something to counter that, I consider that to be good."

    Lol. I use to believe in this crap. I’m a white guy who grew up in France and then New York, where I attended NYU and even marched in Gay Pride parade and volunteered in a soup kitchen. Later, I started working in HR and became a very successful recruiter, fully embracing DEI and really made an effort to support the hiring of minorities and LGBTQ+ people. But then about 10 years ago, I started to see a change. The minorities we had hired had become more empowered, which we of course saw as a good thing. But the it started to snowball, as some of these now empowered people entered leadership roles they not only started hiring more people like themselves, but then turned around and started firing people who were NOT like them, especially white males. Covid really accelerated this. In 2021 I worked at an online learning company that totally cleaned house. Most white males in leadership / decision-making roles were pushed out and replaced with black, Hispanic or LGBTQ team members. It was getting weird, but I tried to embrace as I occasionally sensed a sort of reverse racism, where people would allow themselves to say things that seemed mean and vengeful. Yet I continued to take pride in being an Ally. Until the day came when our team hired a new admin-a jovial black girl with a head full of dreads. As she sat in a separate area from us, I worried that she might feel left out, so I made an effort to say hello, goodbye and just make casual chitchat when I would see her. She seemed receptive to it. I definitely wasn’t hitting on her (I’m much older, married, grown kids etc.). One day she showed up with a new hairdo. Her dreads had been dyed bright red and was in a very elaborate updo. I was genuinely impressed and said so. “Wow! That looks awesome! I love your new hairdo.” She smiled and seemed pleased. Well, imagine my surprise when the next day I was called into a meeting with my new boss and a representative of our HR employee relations team. (Note: my previous boss-a red-headed white Irish guy-had recently been fired and replaced by a very flamboyant gay guy-which was weird because my former boss had been incredibly inclusive, including having also been married to a black woman for 20 years, with whom he had helped raise their two daughters). So we were called into this meeting with Employee Relations and were genuinely surprised when we were told that our admin had lodged a complaint against me, claiming that she felt that my compliments were a form of “micro aggression” and that my interactions were making her feel uncomfortable. I was told to CEASE interacting with her! I was like, “Whar!?! Where is the inclusivity and support of diversity in that!?!” And, no surprises, a few weeks later I was let go! That was the moment I realized that the world had basically gone insane, and that DEI had simply ended up empowering and facilitating a new form of Racism. So long story short, this guy in the video can continue to glorify DEI and do everything he can to support it and entertain the other people that he works with, but I can already relate to the pain and disappointment that he’ll be feeling the day they turn on him. Which I can guarantee WILL happen. Anyway, after that, I decided to move with my family to Sweden, and am grateful to now be living in a country where it’s still okay to be white and simply relax and enjoy white culture without fear of offending anyone. Of course there are growing DEI initiatives here too, but for now it’s more about including women, gays and the few minorities they have here, but hopefully they’ll keep it at that. Not sure what to do about the U.S. though. Sadly, I think white culture will be forced to die off, with the tables turned and white people being the minority “aw shucks” crowd, forever having to apologize for being white and all the “bad” things they supposedly did in the past. DEI was made mainstream because of all the white people who supported it and made it possible, got the sad truth is they’ll never get the credit and appreciation for it that they deserve.

      I also used to be in a similar mindset. Then I realized how much the leftist agenda is akin to authoritarianism. Much like democrats in the US ALWAYS have been. They try to gaslight us and tell us “the parties switched!” but they never did and their racism has now convinced the people they hate that they’re going to save them. We are in some dark times for liberty and freedom, but most Americans do not go along with this stuff. The media tries to make it seem that way, but the saying “go woke, go broke,” isn’t from nowhere. Good for you for making choices that were right for you and not in favor of propping up divisive ideology. I’m sure both of our comments will be censored. I know my first one here was. Wishing you the best.

      In a working class job this would never have happened.

      This is how woke ideology constantly attacks itself. There’s no ‘reverse’ racism. Racism is just racism. Excuse the expression, but ‘useful idiots’ who think they’re good boys and girls and virtue signal like the two in this video also ended up in the Soviet gulags, Nazi prison camps, and still get cancelled, fired, and publicly shamed today.

      Loving all the comments here or is YT filtering us all into our own echo chambers?

    Why own whiteness when you can own people?
