The disclaimer:
The reality:
To be fair, we have an anger problem in general with men. This just adds an interesting racial dimension to it.
- Lindsay Graham 2012We're not generating enough angry white guys to stay in business for the long term.
The disclaimer:
This may sound like hyperbole. But no one is saying that all white men are inherently violent or that they are the biggest threat to America. To make sweeping generalizations about any group is to make the same mistake that racists and anti-Semites make.
The reality:
Angry white men seeing "primitive aggressions" in others that they refuse to see in themselves:
White men warn the public about vicious Central American gangs invading the United States, even though white men have committed more mass shootings than any other group. Some white men say "radical Islamic terrorists" represent the gravest threat to America, even though far-right violent extremist groups are responsible for more deadly incidents in America since 9/11. Some white men, such as white nationalists who rallied last year in Charlottesville, Virginia, say they are in danger of being replaced by nonwhites, even though they still make up the vast majority of the country's CEOs, billionaires and political leaders.
To be fair, we have an anger problem in general with men. This just adds an interesting racial dimension to it.
