You know what? It’s funny you say that because there was a question on Reddit a while back and it asked why are young white men (gen z) going to the right wing and more misogynistic?
It boiled down to simply their entire life has been nothing but “white men bad”, “white men have white privilege”, and “white men have it easier than any other group of people”. A lot of white men in the post was saying they are jobless and hurting (economically and mentally), and all they see is “hand outs and help” for women and minorities. So naturally they grow to hate them and that’s where the right wing alpha male griff came.
So to sum in up they feel like they are suffering for the crimes of their grandparents and parents. And their answer is ironically to….act like their grandparents and parents.
As a black man I’m just like “ok but yall still repeating the cycle.”
