    I think the reason the advice is so pointed to one group is, there’s many people who disrespect the opinion of every minority, and think they’re all in a sympathetic league against them. Being belittled by another white man baffles them and makes them worry about being disincluded.

    The people you’re protecting also didn’t necessarily answer that dumb bear question.

      That’s true, and I wouldn’t say the phrase I quoted is specific to this post, but damn does it feel kinda close.
