I would have gone elsewhere with this. As a white person I can say that what white people like is also what they want, but it may very well be a qualitatively different type of wanting. In fact, I guess you basically said that towards the end, kind of negating the distinction between wanting and liking? Was that on purpose or something?
I did wonder if you've read "Finite and Infinite Games" by Carse as it seems mildly similar in style. Just a recommendation.

Charles, you are on a role with recent posts, as another commenter said.
Ideas expand consciousness into the abyss - there is no end - but with understanding (and awareness that complete knowing is not possible) there is also a kind of brilliancy that is like sunlight glimmering off of water, or maybe coming through your window at dawn. It makes the abyss somewhat bearable, maybe even gives it meaning, and, as a bonus, occasionally helps inspire interesting bloggings.
