Obviously talking about white Americans, not Europeans. White Americans have never been systemically oppressed. Your reaction to the OP is a textbook case of white fragility [0].
And "white fragility" is simply a way to dismiss objections without addressing if they are factual. So in that sense, your use of the term is correct. Any resistance is "white fragility", and the only way to avoid that accusation is to submit to and agree with every attack against whites.
Nothing but heads-I-win-tails-you-lose bad faith arguments.
White Americans have never experienced oppression in America. Full stop. Europeans typically are not racialized and do not identify as white, instead as Italian, German, etc. This discussion is obviously about whites in the US.
>Though I don't see why oppression is a requirement for pride - does achievement not suffice?
It's not an achievement when you spent centuries conquering, colonizing, and extracting everything you can from BIPOCs. When you start out so far ahead in a race it's not an achievement when you win.
>And "white fragility" is simply a way to dismiss objections without addressing if they are factual.
I addressed them, you're not factual. White Americans recoil to the facts that they created and live in a society that upholds their supremacy.
This is obviously false, as shown by the different reactions in Europe to immigration from countries within Europe, to those outside of Europe.
Wow, this is an incredibly stupid comment.
If you simply looked at the history of Italian and Irish immigrants you would know so.
Well besides all that canal digging and train track building you know.
And even after all this oppression they managed to succeed.
