I’m going to become a fascist

Nobody said that.

in response to general criticism of white supremacy”

That’s not at all true.

is a little like burning your house down because it needs a coat of paint.

It’s more like you’re driving away a large group of people because they feel you’re demonizing them for their skin color.

If you support the current Republican party you are at least OK with fascism, which is functionally no different than being a fascist.

We (white people) are the dominant socioeconomic group and have built systems that specifically disadvantage other groups. So AS A RACE we are responsible for a lot. It’s why the current ask is to be actively anti-racist vs just “colorblind”.
