IMO that’s tangential and misses the point. What you believe about the average of a group is not the same as whether you think individuals in that group should be evaluated on the merits and not based on the group.
I believe in individual, merit-based evaluation. If you do not, then you are racist. That doesn’t mean you are “bad” or should be canceled or any of that bullshit. But it does mean you consent (whether you admit it or not) to being evaluated on the basis of YOUR group, not your individual behavior. And be careful — because the group to which you are assigned might not just be based on race, could be religion, whether you injected yourself on command with pharmaceutical chemicals or any other basis by which you might be categorized. Once you green-light collectivism you’ve opened the door to hell.

I agree with you. I try in my personal live to evaluate people as individuals and not get caught up on group labels and assumptions around gender or race.
The problem in America specifically is that the game theory is going against us hard. White people are told to think individualistically and never consider their collective group or culture as something worth fighting over, while every other group is allowed to make group based decisions. That leads to negative outcomes and is part of the reason why we are losing what our country is.
In order to regain that, we need white people to start thinking as a collective a bit more and advocate for their race. Everyone else will do it to us whether we like it or not.
