    This is why “white genocide” actually does have a meaning beyond “racial integration.” If you take away a white person’s ability to live as the undisputed master of the universe—to take his own experience as normal and privileged, and to presume all others to be debased copies of his own primary existence—then you take away his whiteness.

      Would this be like thinking walking through a super market to buy apples and bananas before going to the baseball game is primary and then assuming someone in India is walking through an open air market to buy mangos and papayas before going to the kabaddi game? Like they can’t imagine another structure to society, just superficial changes to the underlying permanent, ‘natural’ structure?

        I think you’re giving them a bit too much credit. They don’t imagine an Indian doing anything, they don’t think about them as people at all, only as vague “threats.”
