You know the saying "the grass is always greener on the other side?" That's because when it's your yard, you're close up and able to see all the faults in the grass. When it's your neighbor's yard, you're far away and so can't see the faults in his.This is likely going very deep into that rabbit hole: why are SJWs so inherently against whites -- at least or especially white males?
Is it because SJWs do not like the image of strong and successful as that one crazy cabin guy claimed? And if so, why is that as well?
SJWs are anti-white because they are rooted in a majority white culture. So they can see all the sins and problems whites have. Talk to them for long, and you'll notice they have no knowledge or awareness of what other, non-white people have done (often just as bad if not worse as white folks).
I also think CS Lewis had an accurate assessment. Just replace "national repentance" with "racial repentance" and it 100% still applies.
The first and fatal charm of national repentance is, therefore, the encouragement it gives us to turn from the bitter task of repenting our own sins to the congenial one of bewailing but, first, of denouncing the conduct of others. If it were clear to the young that this is what he is doing, no doubt he would remember the law of charity. Unfortunately the very terms in which national repentance is recommended to him conceal its true nature. By a dangerous figure of speech, he calls the Government not ‘they’ but ‘we’. And since, as penitents, we are not encouraged to be charitable to our own sins, nor to give ourselves the benefit of any doubt, a Government which is called ‘we’ is ipso facto placed beyond the sphere of charity or even of justice. You can say anything you please about it. You can indulge in the popular vice of detraction without restraint, and yet feel all the time that you are practising contrition. A group of such young penitents will say, ‘Let us repent our national sins’; what they mean is, ‘Let us attribute to our neighbour (even our Christian neighbour) in the Cabinet. whenever we disagree with him, every abominable motive that Satan can suggest to our fancy.’
