You aren’t the individual you think you are. Your style, tastes, politics, genes, psychology, and values are all inherited. Even your views of individuality aren’t original, they are inherited from existentialism. You cling to your cherished self-image as a pure individual because it is the source of your sense of superiority when all such sources are denied you by your stated egalitarianism. It’s OK to be just another normal white person. Give up your pretensions and resentments. Be normal. Get your self-esteem from your family, friends, and successes like a normal person, not in public displays of holiness, showing how much you can deny and punish yourself.
You don’t have to believe what you know is false: that men and women are psychologically identical, that racial disparities are always caused by racism, that heterosexuality isn’t nature’s norm, that multiculturalism doesn’t increase inter-ethnic conflict, and on and on. Political Correctness is just a set of mandatory lies in the service of political power. It’s all bullshit; you don’t have to believe any of it. It’s OK to admit that you prefer people like yourself. That is normal human nature. It doesn’t make you x-phobic. It’s OK. It isn’t scary for long. You can join the truly reality-based community.
