@ cishet white rich men who are able-bodied & sane, and perceive the empowerment of others as their downfall as they cannot take away priviledges from someone else anymore to get the status they have.

Heh oh @Chae. I like you.

Well white rich straight men just tend to be selfish assholes and not really caring that they are that way, they just kinda thrive off it. It can be rather obnoxious. I think I might be more scared of the straight men who were never really empowered or privileged - except for the fact their orientation wasn't really discriminated against, but angry and gleeful and trigger-happy redneck straight white dudes. That aren't very bright either. This type scares me because it seems like it's the type to do the most real harm based on faulty premises. These people feel super angry because they do see a bunch of gay dudes and women from rich uppity liberal cities being successful while they've been bitter truck drivers all their lives. It's not so much they are 'rich asshole white str8 men' but that they are poor asshole str8 men who only wished they were rich. It's not like rich white straight asshole men are going to genuinely care about their other bros at the bottom either, of course. Only pretend to and it's really sad to see them get manipulated by some rich douche.

Oh just a minor pet peeve (and I don't mean to take away from your message) I am wary about calling cis men "cis" because it's not really an identity they have for themselves? Cuz yeah technically that might be what they are but I just like to refer them as 'str8 men' cuz it seems more accurate. Anyway I don't know, just something petty.

Also, the world just isn't naturally fair. People mollycoddle me in ways they would never a straight man (that lungs likes to point out to me when I'm being an asshole lol), but there is this faulty premise that gay men are ALWAYS mollycoddled or treated with kid gloves in america or something, that milo tries to speak about and it's so stupid and not true. It's just a sociopathic right-wing lie. I am sometimes shat on... and sometimes I'm not. Sometimes you're the windshield and sometimes you're the bug? Unless of course, you are a rich asshole str8 white man in america. Yeaaaaah those types of people are put on this weird pedastal.

It's not about 'SJWs.' Soooo many people did in fact, vote for Trump just because he was an asshole rich white straight dude and not a woman. And kinda dumb how they try to act like the people fighting against that misogny are the bad guys. The left needs to stop being so sugary and PC tho. Fight fire with fire.

My statement refers much to the institutional power that these people have macro-wise and by birth (as cis, as white, etc), the ones you describe are those who fail to rise into this elysium - exactly. What I say is not to be anxious but taking responsibility and pride with your orientarion, not being a target but you yourself a powerful person who won't let fear control you. Fire with fire is a bad idea - it perpetuates the very systematic oppression we live in as marginalized groups. Power is always an equation, one side can't go without the other. Take yourself out of the equation and the problem is solved. That said, I keep my fingers crossed and support you

To me, they just like the feeling of power, but they haven't really done anything to earn it. They also like the predictability of knowing their place even more than they like power since they're intimidated by an unpredictable and ambiguous world, so they don't get why people in non-privileged groups (who are pretty much the majority together rather than "minorities" at this point #thismeanswar) would give up predictability for power even though they themselves enjoy both. #authoritarianpersonality I think authoritarians should break off and engage in their weird political BDSM away from people who don't enjoy that ("you do you"), but unfortunately authoritarianism is pretty ubiquitous since it's sort of implicit in what kind of thinking is considered prestigious and valid.

Also, I don't think gay men are ubiquitously "mollycoddled". I don't see gay bikers clad in black leather from head to toe being particularly "mollycoddled", or big hairy bears being "mollycoddled" either. But they're still treated with a kind of distance that macho "str8 men" really wouldn't be. (I love the term "str8 men" by the way. "Cis" comes off extremely demeaning to me, like people have to happily accept every part of their socially-appointed gender role, or they have to go resign themselves to a lifetime of hormones, surgery, and essential physical disability and dependence on doctors. That's an extremely nasty and obviously wrong false dichotomy to me. Some people want to identify with and socially live as the other gender without becoming a medical experiment, others are not particularly happy with their gender role in major ways but find identifying with it to be a sort of lesser evil compared to identifying as trans or another gender, some people just hate Tumblr feminists and gender ideology even if they want to be trans or one of the nonstandard genders in every typical way, etc. This actually comes from what I consider to be the main problem above, with people wanting to put everything in boxes to avoid ambiguity and that being the root of authoritarianism.)
