Let's call this what it is: racism and sexism. Every racist thinks his racism is for the right reasons. The author is no different than any other racist and should be treated as such.
A number of 'visible minorities' are more affluent than whites, such as Japanese Canadians. Why? In the leftist's view it must be discrimination. That is the only reason one group could out-perform another. So is Japanese priviledge a thing? No. No more than white privilege. Groups who succeed do so because work hard, have strong families, get educated, and obey the law. Evidence show discrimination is no longer a significant factor.
So Machin wants to replace imaginary discrimination with real discrimination.
