Demonic hatred of Christ

Something I hadn't thought of before: Are social assaults on white males really a hatred of Christ? At Touchstone Magazine blog S.M. Hutchens has written a far-ranging and hard-hitting essay that ties together anti-semitism, anti-white male sentiment, Christ, and a belief in demons. Here's a sample:
The same campaign is now carried on under the ideological banners of those who must [at] all costs and in every way put down the “white male,” the new ewige Jude, the victimizer behind so much human misery, and whose titles and image coincide so fully with Christ, the pre-eminent exemplar of the genus. He is the Western man who must be put in his place by multi-culturalism, the sovereign man who must be equalized by feminism, the Lord who must be brought down by egalitarianism, the king who must be commoned, the man of war who must be disarmed, the man of the harsh and stupid old Law that must be supplanted by the kindness and wisdom of the new Freedom, the elite man who must be democritized, against whom only discrimination is never unfair, the pastor whose place can be filled by a woman, the virile man who must be homosexualized, the pioneer and settler now damned as a destroyer, the begetter of new men who must be emasculated, the elect man of an elect race in a world where every man and every nation are equal, the man whose pretensions to pre-eminence must not only be done away with, but have become the new definition of evil.

Christ, the white male in his perfection, is the (as yet mostly) unnamed devil lurking behind every substantial evil that plagues the modern world, der ewige Jude, no longer the Abrahamic man through whom all the nations are blessed, but the source of the earth’s sorrows, the pale Galilean at whose breath the world turns cold, and we—we, who are too wise to believe in Satan have been trained in the name of every good thing to see the world through demonic eyes.
For some reason Dr. Hutchens's article has received a large number of comments at Mere Comments. I recommend reading the whole essay.

Update: You also might be interested in the comments section, which appears to have a clarification from Dr. Hutchens himself.

Jesus was a white male? The "standard" definition of white male must be expanded somewhat if it is to include middle eastern semitic men I think.

I noticed that, too. Semitic peoples are Caucasian, but "white" might indeed be a stretch.

For what it's worth at this late date, I'll add a comment. It appears to me that for purposes of "political correctness," by and large Jewish and oriental men are regarded and treated in North America as "white." This impression follows from years of reading the material generated by the National Association of Scholars, in which male members of these groups, frequently stigmatized by disproportionate numbers of high-achievers, rarely if ever appear as "protected," and therefore end up in the same target sights as males of British or European ancestry.

I will extend the hypothesis to suggest that "white" in this context is less a racial or ethnic designation than identification as profane, as unworthy of treatment as holy, as protected, by egalitarianism. Thus Ward Connerly, Condoleeza Rice, Clarence Thomas, and Thomas Sowell, are all in effect white males because of their close association with the contagation, with the Unholy for which the notion of the white male is iconic.
