Toxic masculinity and white privilige. What to do?

No, like a fat 13 year-old. They never left the basement.

There’s a lot of males like that. Some don’t even play video games.

There’s a very good reason why they are INCEL.

That plan fits your needs, not everyone’s. If someone believes that “white privilege” is a thing and believes it negatively impacts the lives of those who do not possess, then asking them to “respect your opinions” and not to “bother” you is absurd request.

Life begins at conception.

Another woman’s abortion doesn’t affect you at all. Zero.
Someone getting a promotion over you because they are a different race DOES affect you.

Now you can choose not to believe in white privilege or that it has little to do with social inequality or EVEN that inequality is okay – but your abortion comparison doesn’t work.

Here’s a better comparison for you:

“My owning a gun has nothing to do with mass shootings.”

Now that’s debatable.

Abortion isn’t debatable from a practical POV, just from a “moral” one.

So…a person’s first birthday is 12 months after they were conceived. And any pregnant woman in a car alone can drive in the car-pool lane.

Car pool lane were designed to get people to share rides to work. A pregnant woman has no choice. Car pool lanes don’t affect her.

Fragile masculinity is a better descriptor. Or rather, fragile masculinity is insecure and resentful, and without being coddled too often goes toxic.

And the proud boys want you to believe that they are a harmless fraternity that cares about how many breakfast cereals you can name while being punched in the chest.

I’m not worried that we can’t make everyone in the U.S.A turn into a good person. The Proud boys are like Antifa. No power, very few members, no influence. Just the occasional temper tantrum. Yes, every country has bad apples. So what?

A better descriptor would be us not being obsessed with finding descriptors. Our society is not improved by the endless obsession with identifying and labeling other people’s so-called flaws. Maybe we should just relate to people as individuals without the amateur psychological exam and all of the stooped assumption that go with it? Fair enough?

It depends on the woman I guess. Some do some don’t.

It absolutely does fit your needs to. Unless your need include forcing me to share your opinion. They have a name for that. It’s called tyranny. The beauty of the situation is that I don’t ever have buy into the whole white privilege thing. If you want to believe this nonsense then by all means, do so. As long as you do not demand anything from me. It’s my right to believe or not. And there’s not a damned thing you can do about it.

LOL. What a joke. There is no neutrality, only a pretense of it.

I’d be more concerned about Toxic Liberalism. If I gave a damn about this garbage society of course.

You came back after two weeks and jumped back into this thread? This issue really chaps your hide.

Makes sure he stays as far away from this garbage society as you do and he’ll be fine.
