“Liberal white people are ridiculously easy to guilt trip”

It’s more that they are terrified to talk about it because they risk being fired from their job and losing everything for talking about it. And they’re also not allowed to talk about how they are not allowed to talk about it. So this is the way it comes out.

While you are not wrong at all, neither is OP:

In many cases, the cowardice is served with a side of genuinely internalized guilt.

Its served with a healthy portion of irrationality.

Yup, keep your head down. Accept everything you're told even if you agree with it or not. There is nothing to be gained by asking questions.

I am a white person in San Francisco and I do experience a lot of casual racism from POC. Just things like “there are too many white people here”, “that’s white washed”, etc as well as mild harassment on public transit.

I am often the only white person in any group, so comments like these among acquaintances get tiring, and I have nobody to talk about it with, partly because, according to a lot of these people, I am privileged despite me growing up in a far poorer neighborhood and single mother household.

This frightens me because it sounds like the setup for a preference cascade, where everybody realizes that they aren't alone, that everybody else thinks as they do. Suddenly the familiar order inverts almost overnight.

Who are liberal white people afraid of? What group has power and what is their game?

Lawyers and HR people

They themselves. Some liberal whites are at the sebior level will exact the whip to get them in same group thinking...pretty much like Dems that always act in unisons as compare to Rep for decades.
