this just feels like an egregious oversimplification of the subject. when you want to know the answer to a question such as “what is it like to (insert conscious experience)” you don’t ask someone who’s never had the experience. you’re just completely missing the experiential part of why they’ve drawn the conclusions they do. while i don’t agree with the total and complete dismissal of one’s opinion in these sorts of discussions, of course a black person is going to understand better the true answer the the question “what is it like to be a black person in america?” similar to how a blind man doesn’t know the answer the to question what’s it like to see

Did he say that, though? It feels like an egregrious application of what he said.

Suspect you mis-heard. He is saying that one's ID group alone qualifies you (or disqualifies) for discussion. How absurd is that. Does it mean that a white dude can understand as well as an Asian lady what her particular challenges are in the business world, for example? Not unless he's been a witness to it but rather than canceling him, enlighten him. Logical conclusion is fighting factions with no hope ever for peace.
