The article is nonsense. I'm not going to walk on eggshells my entire life because someone somewhere thinks that systematically I've "got it better". The mere thought makes me shutter.

Believing that all white people somehow "have it better" is sheer intellectual blindness.

The article completely ignores the fact that there is all kinds of oppression WITHIN white ethnic groups. No one ever mentions that because they all subscribe to the myopic idea that it's "white against all". Ridiculous.
