more positive the conversations would become if certain people would just say "yes, I benefited from that. That's not fair to you and I see that. How can I help?"

Instead we get pages up and pages down about how talking about racism is racist against white people, and by bringing up rape and "women-centric" issues, we're shaming men for being men. Good grief.
