You can't do any of that because that would be representing, and helping, white people. You cannot do that ideologically, which means that you cannot do it at all, which means that your ability to reduce the rage that hundreds of millions of people you rely upon to sustain your society is nonexistent.
You can't stop us. You can't help us. You can't give us what we want and you can't punish us. You can word it in a condescending above it all way if you'd like, but your post is an admission of total helplessness. You gave up all of your weapons. You surrendered your arms--not the weapons of war, but rather the weapons of peace. You abandoned what you claim to be your virtue--empathy--and picked up our weapon--cruelty--to wield it clumsily and ineptly.
You should've left it to the professionals. Instead, you have turned our liability into an invincible asset. You can't give us what would satisfy us unless you have a time machine. So, our satisfaction is off the table. We cannot be bought. We cannot be dissuaded. You're certainly not going to kill us, you need us. So, if you were writing this story, what happens next?
