Maybe people are getting sick and tired of this constant bashing of "privileged" men (especially white men) and this is welcomed opinion.

It's good that bad people are exposed, but when the opinion starts to shift more and more towards grouping all "privileged" people in same group (like you are doing in this very post) it is only creating a bigger problem by making gender and race the primary thing that defines a person instead of their character.

The idea that nationalism will save industry is a welcome opinion in rural America right now (speaking as a white male in rural America) but a welcome opinion does not equal (and in fact, rarely does equal) a CORRECT idea. White men need to not take this shit personally which believe me, I understand is incredibly hard to do but the fact is that people like me were born into a system designed by people like me, for people like me, and even though I've had my share of rough times, I can't then go and claim that racism and sexism are over because I overcame them and I've seen women do the same thing.

Just because one room is saved does not mean the rest of the house is therefore no longer on fire and we can all go home. There is still work to do, and "good enough" for 51% of the population, is just not good enough.

Now if you want to make the case that an opinion or idea that makes you feel good is inherently as legitimate as one backed by numerous anecdotal accounts, solid demographic data, and downward trends in the industry then you're free to die on that hill, but I will not be doing so.

Yeah,.. I keep wanting to believe it is satire, but i'm missing the usual cues.
