p.s. my anonymous comment was meant to point out how I had been a demonstration asshole and was surprised to realize the scope of my own assholery, not to act like this is a new finding re: white people or acceptable methods. I don't know why it's so hard for us to get it through our heads that POC wouldn't just invent these narratives of oppression to make us white people feel guilty for no good reason. Oh wait, it's because we derive enormous power and privilege from acting like we got where we are in the world by being the deservingist.

And now I am committing white-person concern troll sin number 458: treating a person of color's blog like a confession box. And I apologize for that one too and will now STFU.
