I could say a very similar thing about the Jewish people and you'd call me an anti-semite for it.
Is this another case of redefining words and "anti-white" no longer means what I think it means or what? I'm confused.
edit: I'm rate limited, responding here.

No serious person claims that this or other ethnicity is an elite as a group, so I'm not sure what does it have to do with anything.
> Well, because factually socioeconomic elites (in America) aren't overwhelmingly Jewish
Biden's cabinet being 1/3 Jewish (pretty sure it was about half few months ago) is just one example. And they're like what, 2% of the US population? Is that just an antisemitic lie or is the US administration somehow not a part of systemic structure?
Once again, people are worried about CRT causing unintentional antisemitism, but no one cares if it's going to cause anti-white hatred, despite that the exact same argument was used against others who tried to explain why things are like this. It's completely transparent what it is and any sane person can see through this gaslighting. But it's alright, if you want to genocide each other then I guess it's none of my business, since I live on the other end of the world and it doesn't involve me personally. I'm not sure myself why I care so much, I clearly shouldn't. Now go ahead and crucify me.

That's not the issue previously claimed but, like it, also false. CRT is not anti-White.
