Funny to see a bunch of [what I suspect are] white guys re-characterizing a simple question from a brown guy as driven by anti-brown-skin racism (though I guess the device of "self-hating X" can be borrowed from the right). Funnily enough, they are probably correct in their analysis (when applied reflectively) that we tend to see what we want to see.
