Learn to think dialectically
I agree 100%, and I make this little dialectical formulation wrt the specific circumstance of white HBs posting about how they should be genocided.
But yeah when workers are united, race is used to divide them, and once they're divided by race whites get exploited well beyond what anyone would consider privilege. Using the privilege formulation, I used to think about privilege being something thrust upon whites, where privilege becomes a sort of "not-oppressed" status. But I've become aware of WEB DuBois's formulation of a "white wage" that is paid to white workers, and while I haven't yet read Black Reconstruction I have begun to think of it in those terms.
Take my statement above as something more like optimism than hard critique
One of Paulo Friere's theses is that to the oppressor, moves toward equality feel like oppression.
While it is always good to be ruthlessly critical of everything, rather than just merely being "white people making it about them," or self-hating whiteness (a reactionary trope in virtually every other context) or even just toxic and cringe, when you have a large group of whites saying, "yes I deserve it, violently oppress me based on my skin color," assuming it isn't some awful kink, it really could be an authentic way for white people to say that we truly desire equality.

Elon Musk reading:
I PLEDGE TO KILL FOR FREE to anyone with institutional authority to shield me from legal responsibility. I am extremely bored, uninteresting, insecure, paranoid, with three divorces. I have a closet full of black clothes with holsters stitched to them, a hat that says "veteran" on it so I can get thanks for my service whenever I'm standing at the professional sales counter at Home Depot, and I'm on a first name basis with all of the police officers who work home football games at the local high school where my daughter used to go before she moved in with her mother, and filed a restraining order against me (because of wokeness.)
I've been doing more hobby-type stuff lately after 5 years working as a dev and doing very little coding outside of work. Before now it was always work, even my free time I'm like struggling to get things running or stuck or whatever. Now I know a few languages and I can just make stuff so its a little more fun for me lately
That's a really nice and genuine thing to say, thank you
I agree in principle, but my alienation from nature and real social relations manifests as guilt, which makes me externalize my self hate toward others when I see them enjoying something I feel guilty enjoying
There are no televised bean awards shows, no bean celebrities, almost no bean merchandise, no bean sequels.
While unfortunate, I now know how I'll answer the question, "what would the world be like under communism?"
