    An example of giving racial majorities special treatment is racial segregation like what happened in the US in the past. Controlling immigration on who you let in at your country is not an example of special treatment because they live outside of your country and are not citizens. Once they legally move into the country then they will be given the same treatment as everyone else living in that country.

    Which still means giving a highly privileged status to a dominant majority; a status many members of the majority don't want and, to be treated like special snowflakes, would find personally condescending.
