I kinda think that's why the white males are so upset. It is getting harder for everyone. They've just never had to work as hard.
You know white male socialists exist too, right? Please don't lump us all in with these fools just because we share a few external characteristics that we didn't choose.
Unless you really hate working class solidarity, because making this about demographic categories rather than sociopolitical persuasion is actually doing a lot of legwork for the oligarchs.
They're upset because they know daddy and pawpaw had it way better so they cast about to lay blame. In a larger sense, that also explains the immigrant hate. It's not so much straight racism as a huge demographic swing combined with worsening, well..., everything.
They've been playing in easy mode for easily 500 years, and now the difficulty is on par with what everyone's been playing this whole time. Sorry kid, you did this to yourself
Hahaha like it's only been 500 years.
We have been writing our own rules and forcing them on others since the Holy Roman Empire. Then the Anglo's copied the Roman's notes and a different group of white men started forcing their rules on everyone, and some of them came to America to force them on the indigenous. (Key among them, one particular paesano we just "celebrated" a couple weeks ago...)
And white men are nowhere near equal level with anybody else. We've still got a huge advantage over every other racial and gender-identity group out there, at least in America. Racism is still alive and well, and getting a breath of fresh air and support from the feds. Women have lost autonomy over their body and their health decisions in many states, and voter ID laws in the works disproportionately effect married women.
I think you're confusing the Holy Roman Empire with the Roman Empire. They are two vastly different things.
Agreed.
In the name of unity we should not generalise this much.
People doing the bidding of the ruling class can still be victims and it is simply not true that any working class in all of history had it easy, more privileges sure! but "easy" not so much.
We have a class problem more than any other problem and i simply do not see how telling any specific demographic outside the 1% that their life is super easy helps to change that.
#NotAllMen
Also, equality feels like oppression to the privileged.
Idiots think the enemy are people in the same or lower social class.
People who are paying attention realize how little we actually gave up to get to the point of racial and gender equity we have today (and granted we have a lot further to go on those...but Italians and Irish are white now and some Latino's are even getting a pass...)...we have to give up even less for the real inequality -- wealth.
I mean, the government is hunting Latinos in the streets, so there's still some room for growth.
