“Blanche” all you want to, Michael. It’s your prerogative. What I am objecting to in this particular essay is White people who act like the criticism White people are now facing from Black people and their allies is some pandemic of epic proportions where White people are going to die - or that the supposed “oppression” White people now face courtesy of Black people is anything compared to the oppression Whites have been doling out for centuries and continue to dole out. (“Some” Whites, if that makes you feel less defensive, though “some” is always implied.) No one is going to die because a White person’s feelings are hurt by a Black writer. You get to write a basic comment and move on. Enjoy.
