From a white guy I know - RWer. AS IF HE HAD *ANY* IDEA. [View all]
"You are not really free in life unless you can talk honestly about position on matters rather than be subject to the imposition of those of others upon you! The later is actual oppression!"
He and another AWM spend half the evening several times a week whining and complaining about how oppressed they are. Angry as HELL about LGBTQ and their pronouns, black people, poor people, immigrants, women. "Ai herd they givin free tampons to wimmin in Californy! Got damn socialists!" (all while HE is living on so-called socialism ie: Medicare and Social Security and votes for Republicans who TELL HIM they want to cut, gut, privatize, and 'sunset' it)
They don't MIND "socialism" at all - if it benefits THEM. They HATE it if it benefits others - especially people they hate - like women, poor people, people of color, LGBTQ people or immigrants. THAT just sends them off in a huff! I don't see Mr. AWM sending their Medicare card and Social Security money back to the 'guvmint' telling them "I don't accept socialism!"
Of course not.
