Pretend all wealth is completely unearned—in fact, it’s stolen. Pretend that IQ is not correlated to wealth at all, despite what all the evidence suggests. Pretend that many of the “underprivileged” and “disadvantaged” aren’t truly dumb fuckups who’d blow $1 million in a month if you handed it to them.

Pretend that white males aren’t responsible for most of history’s inventions and technological advances. In other words, pretend that the Native Americans actually had guns and printing presses and computers and motorcycles and air conditioners and WaterPiks and that white males simply crashed the party and swiped it all.
