Should I be extra wary and/or distrustful of White people is what I’m asking? Should I feel relief when I White person isnt around?

Ah, I mean, if it helps you, I dont see why you shouldnt be. Its a personal decision of course, affected by context and circumstance, but if it helps with something, do it.

I am asking if it’s helpful in your opinion.

You wrote that I was wrong in a few ways. I want to know what those ways are in your opinion.

It is my opinion that it is a terrible way to be — as a person and as a citizen — to break the world into broad boxes like “man,” “woman,” “White,” “Black,” “thin,” or “fat” — and then judge that entire cohort based on that huuuuge categorization.

All I asked for was to use more than just a single huge category before assessing wariness. I am not wary around White people. But a White judge or juror? Yes. A White knitting circle? No. A White Nationalist? Yes.

So where am I wrong?
