Can Leftists stop Whining about and Demonizing White Men? I’m 54. For my entire life, it has been not only acceptable but actually required to openly discriminate against White Men for school applications, jobs, government grants, etc etc. White Men far more than any other group have been demonized and belittled by Hollywood and in the corporate media. In fact, the corporate media go miles out of their way to tout whenever a criminal is White while doing the exact opposite whenever a criminal is Black going so far as to only describe what the perp was wearing or only talking about the SUV that was used to mow down a bunch of people at a parade in what was clearly a racist attack.
The Courts have openly discriminated against men in terms of handing out harsher penalties for the same crimes, in terms of awarding custody of children far less often in divorce cases, in terms of giving women a choice as to whether to become a parent or not when there is a pregnancy but giving men no choice at all, etc etc.
Yet, when White Men FINALLY start pushing back against this non stop demonization and outright discrimination...when White Men point out that we have laws against discrimination against anybody for their ethnicity or sex, here you are to whine about White Men again. When will you Leftists ever stop whining about White Men?
It is disgusting that in 2025 discrimination against white men is still tolerated in any form or any place.
We need to see more lawsuits against anyone and everyone discriminating against whites or asians on the basis of race.
Oh....did I mention the AP capitalizing Black but refusing to do the same with white? Did I mention - FOR YEARS that the White guy was always portrayed in commercials and on TV programs as the idiot, the fool, the dunce who had to be bailed out by the oh so clever woman or Black person?
Did I mention that media portrayals of interracial couples are OVERWHELMINGLY of a Black man and a White woman but very very rarely the other way around?
You Lefties want to claim all of the above is no big deal? My response is You’d DAMN SURE NOTICE if it was ANY other group of people treated this way. Literally ANY. You’re super quick to notice any perceived slight directed at any of the group you favor. Yet you’re more than happy to dish it out to White Men.
Yes, we noticed. We’ve noticed for a long time.
The problem is we let it go on too long. I graduated from college in 1975. When I went to a headhunting firm for an interview, I was flat out told behind closed doors that as White man I’d be hard to place. But if I was a woman or especially a Black or Hispanic woman, I could have my pick of jobs with Fortune companies.
For whatever reason the country and White men in particular put up with that crap. We didn’t stand up to it when it started and push back. Now we have a huge hole to dig the country out of. I’m not sure one four-year term is going to be enough to correct 4-5 decades of this stuff.
