You don't like media? Sorry bud. We're not the target audience anymore
We're not being marginalized. Our voice isn't being suppressed. we simply aren't where the most revenue can be found. Not anymore.
The world has moved on, and if we don't stop crying like victims and asking for special treatment just because we're white dudes, it's gonna leave us behind. Because other people want different things, and there's just plain more of them. We had our day. It's over. We're not special and we're not entitled to anything. We built the world this way and it's silly to complain about it now. Don't like what's on TV or on the radio or on the internet? Turn it off. Find something else.
That's what people who aren't us have always done.

I read the first post and could only think "jesus christ what life experiences have you gone through to view the world through a lens like this"
Hey if he wants the be the victim so badly he will succeed. Come what may.
