Brian, you officially have my vote that you're race trolling us. Being a conservative firebrand is one thing, this is another. It's intellectually dishonest to ignore context and delivery. The cynical appeal to a "double standard" is a dead-giveaway. Suddenly you're a proponent of an even standard across-the-board? Game--the major basis for this forum--is
predicated on a series of different standards (as Gio alludes to above). What's more, you have a long history of inflammatory political trolling and baiting.
The fiction of white-male persecution coming from the WN branch of the manosphere is borderline tin-foil hat, delusional paranoia. It's taking reality--the effects of feminism and the real problems facing men today--and seizing them for the "white race" and taking them to their logical extreme. It's ahistorical and embarrassing. When I worry about being associated with certain ideas from the manosphere, it's those that concern me most.
There is small group of cats on here that subscribes to versions of this worldview. I've never been one to silence dissent, but when it crosses the line something has to be said/done. There are many guys with whom I don't see eye-to-eye on political and other matters, but I respect their game and our differences. I'm basically the opposite of you, politically speaking, and I let you and your beliefs be. But, when you agitate a thread that talks about race in
one way, and try to turn it into a thread that talks about race in
another, I can't help but think that's deliberate.
