So I think you’re overlooking the fact that rich white countries conquered the world and back up rich white guys wherever they goes. His money and white skin have power because of what’s behind it.
It’s not unlimited - if he became a nuisance to other rich white guys they’d have him dealt with.
I think Chinese, Saudis, Indian, etc rich folk would have just as much power as any random rich white guy. That you are so hyper focused on white skin is really just proving my point.
Any random rich white guy has the full backing of whatever rich white country he comes from. His white skin isn’t magic, it is a flag to everyone else that he’s untouchable because he has its implicit protection as a member of a white ruling class in a white ruling country.
… most of my thinking comes from secretly listening to podcasts at work - I put bone conducting headphones into my hair, boss doesn’t know shit! 🤫

That you believe a rich white guy can go in and just command authority purely on the basis of him being a rich white guy is objectively wrong.
