As someone raised as a white Christian male: no, I have never felt like people were calling me evil, shunning me, or pushing me away because I am white, Christian, or male. That is such a bullshit take and people need to not tolerate that persecution complex nonsense.

Isn’t it nice how of all the people commenting ITT you’re the only one whose personal experience can be generalized to an entire race+gender of people? You’re very lucky.
The post never claims all white males are being vilified, just that enough are being vilified or at least ignored in leftist spaces to push them away and into far-right / alt-right spaces.

Which I have never encountered. I see no data supporting that claim. Why is there anecdote more valuable than mine? Are you ignoring me because I’m a white male?

I’m not arguing they should be shunned, I’m saying people need to not feed into this “white male” persecution complex bs.
Absolutely having gentle conversations with them helps. And sometimes that gentle conversation is “they’re not treating you this way because you’re white, they’re treating you this way because of how you act.”

So we agree it is not a universal experience that all white males are vilified for being white males?
