He wrote:

Your defense of whiteness looks like a fish contorting its body every-way imaginable to get off the hook. But I’ll be blunt; the whiteness you so defend invented ‘white people’, created a ‘white race’, created a ‘racial hierarchy’, created ‘racism’, and yes, your whiteness is the very epitome of what it means to be ‘race-ist’. Your whiteness owns it and it’s up to you to do something about it.

I’m saying:

Okay, okay, let’s cut to the chase. Some, if not most people, are already aware that racial classification was invented by Johann Friedrich Blumenbach (1752–1840), a white anthropologist, in the past, it was partly done to categorize and justify racial hierarchy.

But, defending whiteness? How does one defend whiteness? So according to this writer, if a white person decides they are not having any of this social justice bull shit of white privilege or subconscious bias, and take it upon themselves to defend themselves and their integrity, it is deemed ‘defending whiteness’.

If anyone knows what defending whiteness means, could you please tell me in the comment?
