Perhaps systemic racism operates. But it is a gross oversimplification to assume that it favors whites. Perhaps it did once, but nonwhites now have privileges that whites never had.

For instance, whites never had the right to burn down privately-owned businesses, loot and assault people, take over entire neighborhoods calling them "autonomous zones" while city officials simply turned a blind eye, and while being cheered on by a complicit media, whose favorite term is "mostly peaceful."

Whites are not immune to cancel culture, but blacks are. Joy-Ann Reid, for instance, is a raging homophobe who told obvious and embarrassing lies about how he account was hacked and her entries vandalized. Yet, she's still relevant.

UberEats will not direct you to white-owned businesses, but they will direct you to black-owned businesses.

And if a white person so much as finds fault with a single aspect of anything BLM does, they will be instantly cancelled and labeled a racist.

If you want to know who's really in power in society, think about who you can't criticize.
