      Hate to break it to you, we’re still near the top of the heap.

      Honestly him getting re-elected is the first time in my life where I felt the absolute gravity of “Oh, THIS is white privilege” like theres no fuckin nuance to this. I’m straight, white and middle aged. If I say the right things I’ll probably be fine, not much is going to change for me.

      I cant say the same for a lot of other people.

        I know what you mean, but I think lying under racism is classism, and the trumpers are a party to service rich people. I doubt they will take care of their “base”. Did Trump do anything for the impoverished whites last time? I dont remember.

          He gave them table scraps while feasting with his cronies (remember those COVID checks?).

        I mean, you say that, but even straight white guys often have wives and/or daughters.
