That's an excellent article.

It reminds me of an incident a couple years ago. I was shocked when a white female (Fox viewer) told me, with all sincerity, that it must be hard for me being a white male in America now. Apparently I've been discriminated against because I'm white and male! She honestly believes that!
She did NOT believe me when I said I couldn't think of a single instance when being a white male put me at a disadvantage.

Needless to say, she voted for Trump.
