You can say "oh it's a psychological experiment" but the fact is that there are people, real people, who use that argument without a hint of irony. These are people who have been emboldened recently (whether by Trump's success, or by the rise of anonymity on the internet), but the fact is that by pushing those "hypotheticals", it IS legitimizing the opposite viewpoint and makes it so that white supremacists like Richard Spencer can actively claim to be victims in a society that really doesn't treat them that poorly, outside of rejecting their racism views. --- Touch fuzzy.
