Our successful author expresses himself clumsily, but I think what he's trying to say is white males get more "points" to begin with, so even assuming similar mistakes as other groups, white males will be more successful, because they have more points to waste before failing.
I find this section more interesting:
There is no point in being black, a woman or a gay. Their cultures and individual traits have no value when compared to the glory of being a Straight White Male! All else is but a failure to live up to the universal standard. StatueOfDavid.jpg
Scalzi is either secretly based, or openly stupid.
