“The victimhood syndrome buzzwords — “disenfranchised,” “marginalized” and “voiceless” — don’t resonate with him.”
‘Pissed off’ has a much better ring to it, don’t you think?
Let’s hear it for the Disgruntled Xenophobic Nativist Vigilantes. It’s about time the political hacks started pretending to care, lying to us and promising undying fealty.

Angry white men, like myself. Unless the article itself was tongue in cheek, in which case I’ll kindly remove the stick from my ass.

There is one group no one has recognized, and it is the group that will decide the election: the Angry White Man. The Angry White Man comes from all economic backgrounds, from dirt-poor to filthy rich. He represents all geographic areas in America, from urban sophisticate to rural redneck, deep South to mountain West, left Coast to Eastern Seaboard. His common traits are that he isn’t looking for anything from anyone — just the promise to be able to make his own way on a level playing field. In many cases, he is an independent businessman and employs several people. He pays more than his share of taxes and works hard.
I don't know, I'm not too offended or insulted by what was written. Did you actually go read the entire piece??

Yeah, but I think I was looking for something to get pissed off about. I thought it was another “white people are to blame for the world’s ills” piece.

Well it didn’t. Which I’ll grant you, is surprising, considering it is from an Aspen paper.

He pays more than his share of taxes and works hard.The victimhood syndrome buzzwords — “disenfranchised,” “marginalized” and “voiceless” — don’t resonate with him. “Press ‘one’ for English” is a curse-word to him. He’s used to picking up the tab, whether it’s the company Christmas party, three sets of braces, three college educations or a beautiful wedding.
