i can "not identify as white" all i want but i'll still get treated like it in a white supremacist society and benefit from my skin color or fall through the cracks just the same.

i can be agender but without signs and signifiers communicating that and the vast majority of people not having any cultural context i'll still get treated like and assumed to be a cis man (even in queer spaces unless i've got a nametag and people actually bother to read it)
