Our politics, our entire lives, the fate of the natural world, the future if the human race - all held hostage to rich white cis male victimhood.

Should have said parents. Had an old ex boyfriend and his mother thought he could do no wrong. He disrespected her and eventually me. His father wasn’t around much and didn’t have a lot to do with his upbringing. Oh and they were in no way rich.

Do you know that a father is the main role model for how his son grows up?

Geez oh Pete. Mothers get blamed for everything.

Heavily weighted with surival-of-the-fittest theories, dominance.

When they don't get it all, they are victims.

Shove it down our throats until that's all there was.

If they want to be victims, I can think of some things to make them actual victims.

There comes a time in the life of every Man where the eyesight dims, hearing gets worse, muscles weaken and your self concept of white male superiority and infallibility becomes questionable.

Then you wind up the neediness and greediness, despite what you already have, to maintain your self declared status.
And complain like mad about the 'not fairness' of it all.

Trump started this early though, in his teens.

This is why we have retirement ages in most jobs, for crying out loud!

Why isn't there a compulsory retirement age for those sticking on limpet like, do nothing politicians?

Barney Frank can literally go to hell.
