Pretty sure there's no one out there saying it's "not ok" to be white. Lots of people out there saying it's not ok to be a shitty person, and white people seem to hold a corner market on that demographic the past few (hundred (thousand(s of))) years.

What isn't a 4chan or some other troll campaign these days. It still finds a sincere 2nd-order audience. "Brogrammer" was a FB internal joke once. Re novelty, the Terry Brockman anecdote was a new angle for me. "When people stop being scared of you" must be a strange feeling

Ah, that. Yeah, as far as I can tell all of these arguments are really just about relative power (not diversity or whatever). People are always testing to see what that can get away with. The balance between white and not-white get-away-with-ness is noticeably shifting.
