I think both the sense of not-being-targeted and the sense of being celebrated has declined. eg white Christians' persecution complex.

And I think they are experienced as the same thing, often. "When you are accustomed to privilege, equality feels like oppression."

But I don't even thing we've had an increase in real equality. I think the sense of oppression comes from availability heuristic.

What does "equality feels like oppression" mean when income and wealth gaps haven't narrowed? Equality of what?

Amount of time your kid spends talking about Christmas vs Hanukkah vs Kwanzaa obviously!! (Joking but kinda serious).

So, the decline of the cultural supremacy of Christianity? I could buy that. That's definitely real and recent.

But also like... black president, last WWC sitcom was Roseanne (or maybe King of Queens.)

Feeling that poor whites are the last group it's OK to make fun of, cf Honey Boo Boo.
