How are white people supposed to feel about their own race?

It's not that difficult to grasp, someone growing up a certain way and being made to feel like they're not as good, or bad or worthless can have a very negative impact on someone.

And then seeing someone with that same thing, wether it be skin tone, disability, social awkwardness, being a nerd etc succeed. You feel proud of their success and relate to it on a personal level.

It's psych 101 man

Edit: I had a really short hispanic friend growing up. And Rey Mysterio was his god. xD

I can understand people relating to other people who are successful, sure. Collective racial pride itself is nonsense. No one ever put any work towards being born into the skin tone they were born into. People being proud of their skin color is silly. An achievement that requires zero effort.

People only feel pride in their race/orientation/disability when others make them feel like they should feel bad for it.

I drink water a lot. But if a large group of people around me was telling me how awful I am for drinking water, and I'm worth less because of it. I'd think, "Fuck you, I like drinking water and proud of it, bitch" 

Silly example but I hope the idea came across..
