"white fragility" is inherently bad faith (both because it's inherently racist but also because "fragility" is a kafka trap as previously discussed), and you immediately clarified that you were, in fact, using it in bad faith: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23634713.
Repeating unsubstantiated statements, as if that makes them any less unsubstantiated, is a favorite exercise of some famously fragile white people, but is ultimately fallacious and futile.
