You're not the only person who took offense to that sentence, and I just wanted to apologize for the confusion. Just to explain why I included that part, is that white males in his age range are generally portrayed as the most anti-immigration. A lot of people assume because of his age and ethnicity that he is anti-immigration. People tend to forget that it hasn't been that long since white immigrants also faced discrimination.

So the "despite being a white male" part was kind of ironic sarcasm on my part, since I've spent a lot of my adulthood being argued with that white males can't experience discrimination.
