I’m native but I see nothing wrong with being proud of your race. Same as black power, no difference.
People who are offended by this type of shit just want attention, or they are just weak people who feel like they need to signal to other races for attention / acceptance. 🤷♂️
The issue is when you're white, nobody is doing anything to you because you are white. Nobody is targeting white people, nobody is pulled over for being white in a black neighborhood, etc. etc.
So when you say "I'm proud to be white", it's like "okay, proud of what?"
Contrast this with gay pride. We're less than 10 years into gay marriage being legalized, and less than 50 away from gay people being social outcasts because of the aids epidemic. Gay people have had to overcome a lot just to be able to tell people they are gay. So "gay pride" has something behind it.
Saying "I'm proud to be white" is like saying "I'm proud my parents were rich". Like..... okay?
