You're not understanding it vor even trying to take it serious. No wonder voters are running ax from you.
If you constantly tell someone they are at fault for something because they are of a certain race, if you constantly deny them any of their achievements and say is because of privilege, if you constantly chastize them, don't take them serious and ridicule them when they talk about their problems, they aren't going to feel represented by and vote for you.
Voting for Trump isn't a rational decision, it's a emotional one.
You need to Figuren out where you went wrong so the elections became emotional instead oft rational.
Remind me who they were running as VP again? Was it another cishet white guy? Also maybe you should be the one trying to understand privilege instead of projecting your own insecurities onto the word. Cool flags though bro.
-signed, Another cishet white guy
please, I am a green-liberal.
But sure, go on and bitch around, being all cocky and passive aggressive about the problem instead of trying to fix it.
I mean, just look at it: You're framing it in a way that a white cishet guy running for (vice-)president is a problem.
You are making fun of a person advocating for the troubles of young white guys. When in literally the sentence before it you were framing a white vice president as a bad thing. And then you're wondering why they aren't voting for you.
It is on the nose. Especially since I already typed it out for you in my comment.
Tim Miller of the Bullwark was just so pissed off by the audacity of “White Guys for Harris”.
When asked why, he would mumble something about White guys being for anything is bad and then he would hear how ridiculous that sounds and change the subject. I saw him do it a couple of times.
How do you reach out to people are who are addicted to faux-american outrage porn with a side helping of persecution fetish?
preferably you'd not let it get this far.
Or you can just cry around and watch the next batch of savable (saveable?) boys become radicalized.
I see Trump voters and people who want an excuse for their behavior saying this has happened. I've not actually seen it happening beyond the odd anecdotal outlier. I've seen people choose to interpret things like white privilege and systemic racism as if that's what's being said, but it always seems very clear to me that it's not what is being said, it's how they react to folks suggesting they be more mindful of how they interact with others or less dismissive of the ongoing impacts of historical injustices.
Signed, a white guy, who doesn't deny all the awful things perpetrated by other white guys in the US, nor feel personally responsible for those awful things, nor feel blamed for those awful things, despite also having struggles, no money in the bank, and plenty of my own personal challenges.
It's hard for me to have a lot of sympathy for the folks willing to fuck shit up for all of us (including themselves) because they aren't willing to stop and actually consider what is being said instead of what they think is being said, or because being mindful of how they interact with the people around them is somehow just too much courtesy to ask for.
And psst - fixing a lot of those things would help white folks too!
