White hypocrisy

It is stunning (NOT) that a 'complaint' from whites objecting to the tearing down of statues of racist, sexist white men is "If statues are torn down, then where will it stop - with art, with science, as the whole country is built on enslaving people and genocide?"

Yet when pointing out that everything white people have has been stolen from the lands and off the backs of enslaved people, white people deny and protest with the "I worked hard, I followed the rule book, I started with nothing and pulled myself up with my own bootstraps".

Interesting (NOT): when defending white cultural icons from uncovering the truth of racism and sexism, and then being torn down, white people know our true history; but when challenged to look at where their wealth came from, white people are blind to the advantages skin color has awarded them with as well as who has been targeted and exploited in order to provide those 'advantages'.
