Don't you think that part of the luxury of whiteness is in not having to define yourself by race? I think it's unenviable that so many people are essentially painted into a corner whereby they need identity politics to represent their interests. I have great love and affection for the Scots and Fins, but I wouldn't ever consider voting for a person based on their Fin-ness or Scottish-ness. That's a position that only WASPs can enjoy fully.
