Hell, they get angry when their carefully manufactured, homogenous reality is disturbed by kneeling athletes, requests that people be treated as if their lives matter, being inconvenienced for a few minutes by people trying to break through that crafted bubble to try to get them to look outside of it. I mean the whole article talks about how white people react to anyone even implying that something they've done is the result of racism. They can't and don't want to hear it.

My particular rage gets worst when I'm dealing with an associate I'm trying to bring along who is helpful to me and who happens to be a minority.
Yes, it is about me as much as him or her. I hate to admit it, but it's true.
The fact that other white folks aren't in a rage tell me they aren't investing in minorities in their own workplace. They aren't bringing anyone along other than white folks like them.
WTF, White people? WTF?
