What the author said: “They are everywhere.”

Dude, chill. I’m a white woman and I feel a twinge of what you’re talking about, now and then. I want to protest that the alt-right is an itsy bitsy minority, I want to point to my United Colors of Benetton Facebook friend list, I want to help without being mocked as an ally by the people I thought I was supporting.

Man, sit down with that. Your upset because there isn’t a line in the article that says, “I know not all whites are .....................” so that you can find your identity - your place - in the dots.

I feel like a man without a country.

1. you’ve been on the various GM blogs since 2014 complaining about the content and the writers - this has to be the definition of crazy. If you don’t like something - the internet is a wide and wondrous space - take your eyeballs elsewhere. really please go!
2. if you decide to stay and comment at least offer some

The majority of straight white men who voted, voted for Trump. Around 67%, I believe. That’s not a fringe, that’s a fucking majority. And all those people were OK with voting for a man who was explicitly racist throughout his campaign and was praised and endorsed by David fucking Duke.

If going on Deadspin is the one time in your life in which you are maligned for an identity you were born into and had no control in choosing or crafting - congratulations. Consider yourself lucky and stay off that particular message board. For women, for people of color, for people who aren’t straight or cis - they

That white people are somehow evil, soulless conquerers, while the other ethnic groups are pure, virgin victims of our evil oppression.

Ok. You’re accusing this person of simple and binary thinking but you say you’re a man without a country because you think you have to side with either extreme left or right ideologies. That’s binary thinking you twit. Please take you’re pity party and narcissism else where.

You’re tempted to become a white supremacist? And that’s because the LEFT is emboldening you and making it more enticing?

Look, the reason people are saying “this isn’t fringe” is that white supremacists are in our midst. If we don’t start speaking out louder against them, we’re allowing them to be comfortable among

You miss the point so massively that it goes some way to explaining where we are at right now.

Nope, Black people have never been told they are worthless, evil, violent, lazy, rapists, criminals, less intelligent or anything like that. Let me know when you get out of your feels, and we’ll talk.

This is the new tactic I’m seeing pop up all over the place. It’s not that I have shitty views, it’s that you made me have shitty views because you previously called out my shitty views but also I’m a smart, independent thinker and tough. But don’t shit on my shitty views or else they’ll get shittier! You made me do

You should really stop the assumption that anyone is personally attacking you though. Everyone that sits around and complains about how it’s “impossible to be a straight, white, male” needs to show me where someone took something away from them over that. If you look at people complaining about Nazis and get offended

the constant insinuation that white people are somehow ethically worse than other races by the left is emboldening them and creating an environment where this ideology is more enticing

Complaints about racism are making you a racist. Sure. OK.

Pretty sure if you can’t get through the day without being told how awesome you are, you’re just a fragile white dude. You’re more upset that your ethics are being exposed than you are that your skin putting everyone else at a major disadvantage. You feel like a man without a country? Well, think about how all us

I’m also a heterosexual white male, but I don’t have this problem?

Then don’t read Deadspin. Stay off anything connected to Kinja. Or your social media sites, forget about those. Fuck it, stay off the internet. Don’t watch TV, don’t listen to the radio. Stay indoors, with noise cancelling headphones, in the bathroom, with the water running.

Not all countries.
