You can easily delude yourself with any media narrative as you wish.

White christian Americans are not even the most privileged group in the US.

I think we all see what we want to see and listen to what we want to hear. 

 

Far right MAGA Republicans having a bias towards the white straight Christian male identity is not a media narrative. Lol. Its quite overtly in some of their rhetoric. One of their main and perhaps legitimate gripes is the perception that the white straight Christian male is becoming less privileged and less influential with time, given the increasing diversification of America.

Yes, there are non-white communities that are doing quite well economically but that won't insulate them from an authoritarian regime that is rooted in maintaining white straight Christian male dominance. Furthermore, their economic prowess doesn't necessarily translate into political power.

Some whites have a self bias. I am not surprised. This is true in every democracy. 

Anyone that had talent and hardwork can still "make it" ,with a pinch of luck of course without having to face these imaginary political barriers.

People across the world has far more issues to deal with in terms of upward mobility. 

There are also people who are depressed because "climate change" is going to kill their opportunities in future. If you believe it, it will become true to you. Same with the narrative that you need to be born a specific colour to get upward mobility else you are fucked.

For young talented people it's more worthwhile to spend your energy on personal success rather tha  whining about social justice, which is filled with tons of fallacies and mistakes of their own, which they never admit.
