Motherfuckers need real struggle in their lives if this is the shit they're wasting their time on. Art will be diverse, always has been. Get the fuck over yourself and move on to something that caters to whatever bullshit narrative you need to wake up everyday and be an ignorant piece of shit. I mean, the Bible is a work of fiction that's been whitewashed with a cracker ass jesus, how about we start there?

Apologies for the rant, I usually have this type of nonsense filtered outta my feed.

These are people who rely on "I may be a piece of shit, but at least I'm not (minority group)" to get through their day and not have to try to be a better person. If minority groups get treated as well as "normal" people there will be no one for them to look down on!

Man, I hadn't even thought about that. Valid point.

I hope they get to truly enjoy their experience of being a white male minority soon! Maybe that'll help with the empathy some day.

I hope they get to truly enjoy their experience of being a white male minority soon!

The main reason that scares them is that they are worried that if they become a minority they will be treated the same way that they have been treating minorities.

I have no doubts about that. It's a sentiment I hear echoed all the time in the smaller PNW town I live in. How can someone possibly have freedoms and equality unless it's taken from someone else.
