Because privilege is power and power is responsibility.

By the time someone has enough millions to toss them around to various causes, their race is a rounding error in their level of privilege. All this does is try to reframe a class vs class struggle as a race vs race struggle.

It's so funny that you guys are getting up voted when I said almost the exact same thing and hammered for it. Love the consistency. I have the exact view you do. Adding white to this feels performative rather than actually wanting too solve the problem. It's "woke 1.0" vibes.
