Doesn't read as fifth grade to me. Just has a little spiciness to it, I appreciate that. Think about it, the person could have linked and linked and linked to other articles to back up some point of disagreement. But instead, they shar

"intellectually dishonest" as opposed to physically dishonest or...? Preferential admissions, sure. And that's not new, admissions take a lot of things into account besides race, like religion, family members who were alumni,

worse educational experience? thats dramatic as hell. You are just mad that can't steal support reserved for other folks. You keep throwing around priveledge and advantage but I don't think you get it. Do women make less money t

your right, sarcasm is a tool of the devil and it's so unauthentic, it's like lying but with an even more evil purpose. You are complaining, right now, about how now women get a situational advantage. And we shouldn't celebr

white dudes are underprivileged? See it's better when you share your opinion, that way it's easier to see what you are thinking. You are getting mad at me for all these assumptions, but I was right, you really think white people a

all the men on here complaining they aren't getting support while others are, definitely aren't blaming anyone, you're right, I took that too far. Seeing a lot of men write how they are super stoked women are finally getting

Why do you think a college would have an "advantage" for someone black that would not be available to someone white? Is it possible, hear me out, that maybe white people are still at a massive advantage getting to college and that

Happy Thursday buddy. The premise of your question doesn't relate to that last part, (masculinity vs men, different things) but I can answer the last part: they do get the same level of support maybe even better, but no, they shouldn&#

> Do you understand what masculinity is? This is the best question. Masculinity is just an archetype. It could have been three dudes standing around, "Hey you know, we are all strong, smart, and like to protect our families. I bet

You are making a lot of huge jumps there, incorrectly, (except for the sarcasm, completely on point), and you asked like 5 questions. Everyone should get support! More support! Everyone. By focusing on men, you are stating it is MORE challe

yea it's a basic situation everyone deals with, this person just thinks it pertains to males.

Yea black people always getting that advantage, you should let more people know. I mean, people just don't understand how hard it is to be white these days with twitter hate and everything. Be the voice! Let me know how it goes.

yea totally changed my mind, it does sound like things just aren't fair and the other "groups" have it better while the white man "deserves" it's fair share. Should we start a group or what? Which other group

Just saying thats not answering the question, guys today have so much more, except for more severe inequality over their counterparts.

What support is not offered now that men had in the 1950's?

> A racist solution would be to give advantages to black people. Let's try it and find out. Love to see us even try to give black people an advantage. In the US, it take 200 years and 12 civil wars.

It's called therapy, not blaming other people that don't look like you coming up. And yea, therapy is expensive and usually not covered by medical insurance. So vote.

I hear you, this is alarming. No support! We deserve it, right? Being a young white male is probably the hardest thing to be in the world. Getting profiled... by twitter. And then, not to mention, all the dirty looks we get when we lock our

That's not the point that person was making. But (figuratively) its very true not many people at all can own such a car. Imagine owning one, you got well over $100k of f-off-money, but then tell your barista "life is rough with th

haha not so much, feeling sorry for someone that can afford a Ferrari and then complains about the car insurance would be ridiculous. Similar to feeling sorry for white guys having to deal with politics, its warranted, not serious, and doe

> crosshairs of reactionary political ideologies You feel sorry for young white men because they have to deal with politics? "Ferrari owners pay an unfair amount of car insurance."

I was young once, and I am white. Yea sure, I understand it. And this is no way new, I had plenty of other white people feeling sorry for me because, "the country is being taken from the white man". That is ooooold, old, old. Fear

No, I just get outdoors and live with real people, and see it myself. I've been pulled over in a car with two other dudes, and watched the darkest skin guy get the crap kicked out of him because they thought he is a gangster, while we
