> Why is a white minority a bad thing?

I addressed this question: "Or will that leave them as individualists in a country dominated by inter-group competition, as current polls suggest?"

Of course this is not guaranteed - once Whites are a minority (in the US, not just globally), other races in the US may also turn away from in-group preference, and the culture might turn away from harping on white privilege all the time. It's just that that hasn't happened yet.

The reverse is also plausible, and whites could begin to show in-group preference again.

I agree this is interesting to watch. Minorities have more voice in the culture as the demographics change, and some in the majority want to push back. Identify politics is toxic, no matter where it comes from. The media and politicians don't seem to be helping.

This is so absurd it’s borderline gaslighting, nobody would willingly go from a majority to a minority, it’s nothing but negatives, and it’s only trotted out to white people.
