You're being racist and sexist by assuming wealthy westerners or those in stable relationships or those being able to call home to family are white males. If that's not racist I don't know what is. I don't think it takes being a white male to be able to call home to family when traveling internationally. You're assuming a point of view is invalid due to someone's race and gender.

Quit being racist and projecting identities on people.

This is about people who would have a hard time recovering digital identities. I imagine there were lots of white males fleeing war in Europe who probably struggled to get access to accounts backed with things like passkeys and other forms of 2FA. But I guess to you their struggles don't matter.

Its almost like you including gender and race was just your own projections of your own hatred for a particular group. You should probably think about things when painting people with such a wide brush of "white males" when trying to paint people in a derogatory fashion.

I spent a chunk of my life homeless. Don't project some identity on me that's not valid, or that I just totally lack some perspective due to your assumption of my race or gender. Its not a fair thing to do, its literally racist and sexist.

You could have tried to make your point without throwing in racist and sexist comments by just saying "wealthy western software developers" or whatever.
