These are people who rely on "I may be a piece of shit, but at least I'm not (minority group)" to get through their day and not have to try to be a better person. If minority groups get treated as well as "normal" people there will be no one for them to look down on!

Man, I hadn't even thought about that. Valid point.

I hope they get to truly enjoy their experience of being a white male minority soon! Maybe that'll help with the empathy some day.

The main reason that scares them is that they are worried that if they become a minority they will be treated the same way that they have been treating minorities.

I have no doubts about that. It's a sentiment I hear echoed all the time in the smaller PNW town I live in. How can someone possibly have freedoms and equality unless it's taken from someone else.
