I would like to extend some but not all of these responses to situations like but not limited to:

X Should be the first ones to be shot.
They're gonna make everything better.
These people always think that Y.

Lul, yes, I was supervised how much to think about using "disguising" causes any haters that automatically think you are on their side.

But this post gives me an idea of being a bit more prohibitive, eg 'don't ever talk to/about them like that'.

As a gay guy who's definitely been in the room for gay jokes because they didn't know I was gay: yes, you do. If you are only willing to call out bad behavior when you may get caught associating with it, then you aren't actually an ally.

Honest question wtf is a "het" now?

I'm pretty pronoun positive but seriously this shit is getting ridiculous.

As soon as you van stop using weird vocabulary as "cis man", i would start thinking about saying any of that.

Yes, there is a lotmof right wing bullshit going on but this entire Snowflake "Im special so we need to change language" is in large part what has pushed so many people to trump yo begin with.

To out it simple: you're part of the problem. Fix yourself too

start with coherent messaging, which means you need to define terms as you use them

I see we're in the "Trump was elected because of political correctness" phase. I remember this from 2015.

"Hey white guys, fix this so we can improve society. Also, I'm choosing the bear, fuck white men."

This sort of thing bothers me. It seems people only want white men for what they can potentially provide, then I'm sure we'll all go back to hating again. Thanks for giving me another new label too I guess.

This should be gender agnostic advice, not specifically for white men.
