"I just think it is healthy to be able to view things from a non white-supremacist view and ask ourselves the likelihood of this person actually being a demon."
How can you make a meaningful, post high-school level analysis of a white Brit talking down about Mexican culture and not take into account the existence of white supremacy? You then say he made the comment from a place of privilege, but what do you think white privilege is a product of? You think that concept came out of some college think tank? You think folks haven't penned down the benefits of white supremacy in critique since whiteness was invented?
Ultimately, is this a situation where you're upset that people are taking his whiteness into account at all and thus trying to defend his honor from being construed as some KKK member in disguise or, as you put it, a "demon" when ultimately no one is doing that? Are you doing that thing where people pretend whiteness and white supremacy can only be displayed in outrageous acts of evil? Because it is almost 2026 and we should have moved on from ironically performative defenses for whites making dumb insensitive statements by now and recognize what time that white people are on all the time.
To reiterate, a man said he didn't like a certain Mexican bread. That's where this is all coming from.
...and the person criticising him also said, "yes the bread is cheap and shit, but it's meant to be cheap and shit".
