      “Against me? No. The differentiator I experience is because I’m male. I’ve had a lot of anti-male sentiment. I lost a job because of it. Because somebody didn’t like having talking to a guy. Such is life.”

      This is some borderline incel bullshit here.

        You ever read one thing about someone, and all of a sudden, everything about them comes into focus and makes sense?

        I’m sure there is nothing else to the ‘I lost my job because somebody didn’t like having to talk to a guy’ thing either.

          That’s kind of what I meant by the incel thing. To be it reads like “I was talking to coworkers in a terribly sexist and misogynistic manner and I got fired. That’s how a TOP 1% MAN speaks, so obviously I got fired because someone doesn’t like having to talk to a man, not because I’m a piece of shit with no self-awareness.”

          The whole bit about sympathizing with the BLM protesters but wishing they would protest in places where cops have actually shot people instead of in his city because it inconvenienced him screams that he’s unaware of both his privilege and his power, which only reinforces the whole lack of self-awareness thing.

      This isn’t satire? It reads as satire…

        I’m having trouble believing an article titled “White Progressive Discovers Portland’s Unwanted Reputation” isn’t satire.

        So their profile picture used to be a picture similar to that. And now theirs is a picture of I voted in Oregon
