Who is hurt the most by left-wing political ideologies?

[ForevrLonely29]

I strongly believe Caucasian (white), straight, Christian (and now also Jewish) males are hurt the most. Really think of the sociopolitical movements that have swept the US in the recent decade or so.

LGBTQRSTUVblah... encompasses sexual and gender orientations other than being straight

Liberal feminism... address issues pertaining to women with emphasis on woman

Gaza Riots... emphasis and support for Islam and its regimes with antisemitism

Race initiatives to promote those of "color":... races and ethnicities other than white.

Christians largely support Isreal. The Christian faith prohibits LGBTQRSTUVblah causes. Christians have been subject to threats of violence, government surveillance, and the cancel culture.

The two-teared justice system penalizes conservative activists more harshly than leftist rioters.

They are about to remove "Boy" from Boy Scouts. Woke ideologies are now ruining an institution over 100 years old.

I am a white, straight, Christian male. The only "protected class" I may belong in is disability. Although, I don't see any hot-topic movements to address mental health and disabilities. In fact, I face more hardship, no matter what political ideology the companies I work for have.

I agree

OK, so I am appending more details. According to the current US census data, white males account for around 30 percent of the US population. Now, I don't know if this included or excluded non-hispanic males. If white Hispanic males are included in that statistic, Caucasian/Euro-decent males are even less than that. Then, you have to factor in religion, gender identity, and sexual orientation, which isn't included in the census data.

Left-wing minorities (LGBTQ, Blacks, communist, etc.) are hurt the most by left-wing policies. Why? Because the policies are directly set up to promote bad behavior from left-wing minorities which is then extensively documented and presented through media outlets to show off that bad behavior. In the moment those minorities think they have the upper hand because they are being show favoritism, but it is a classic trap. The silent majority always holds the power through numbers and the resulting propaganda campaign that shows off the bad behavior of the left-wing minorities persuades the silent majority that the left-wing minorities are subhuman and incapable of living in a civilized society. They are now stained in the mind of the general public. The fist thing you do when you go to war with someone is to dehumanize them. The left-wing minorities have volunteered themselves to dehumanize themselves in the minds of the majority. They are in an extremely bad position, where the majority wants justice and now has no sympathy for the very outnumbered left-wing minorities.

[ForevrLonely29]

I see your take on that. Yes, I agree. What they may believe will "help" them will actually hurt them. Although, I think I am speaking more so about what group of people is excluded from these ideologies the most. I guess that is what I am getting at.

[patois]

The majority is excluded the most. That's the entire point. It's a gambit to set up the minorities so that they can be genocided. You can't just eliminate Black in a free society unless you trick him into making a mistake first...

It's almost like Democrat Socialists offered up that pawn with Proposition 47 on purpose...

White ”cis” people. You mention boy being removed from boy scouts and white men certainly are a big scapegoat for the left, but we also see every single female ”space” being invaded by males and anything female being eradicated. Men get to compete in female sports, enter female restrooms, female prisons etc. as long as they just say they identify as female. In healthcare they’re changing it from woman/mother to ”birthing person” when referring to pregnant women/women in labour and ”chestfeeding” instead of breastfeeding to be so called more inclusive. They’re even trying to change ”vagina” into ”front hole” because apparently the name of female genitals is not inclusive enough. It’s also changed to menstruating person and person who has a uterus. Anything to not even mention the word woman. So we’re just described by our body functions or body parts like some sort of cattle or object.

There’s also a trend to name baby girls boy names and this trend has been going on for years (reasons parents state is not liking a single girl name, saying they don’t want ”girly” or ”frilly” names or that they want ”strong” names and for their daughters to be taken seriously in the board room and apparently feminine names can’t be strong or serious) and women who’re into femininity or traditional feminine gender roles are ridiculed, made fun of and attacked online. There’s a lot of hatred towards it and even accusing these women of being a danger to society and traitor to all women and an embarrassment for women who historically fought for equal rights. Girls and women are thaught to be like men and dress and act like men because femininity is weak and bad.

It’s very interesting that people who claim to be feminist and fight for womens rights seem to do everything in their power to stop woman being a thing and having a place in society.

Really good points. Thank you.

How is helping a bunch of groups hurting a different group? It's not like leftists are saying you have to pretend to be gay or a woman or join Islam. They mostly just say, leave those groups of people alone and stop discriminating against them. And that doesn't even work half the time. Why do you think most positions of power—including leftists politicians—are held by people in your exact same groups even though they only make up 30% of the population? Doesn't sound like you're being hurt very much, as a group...

[ForevrLonely29]

It hurts a group when other groups are handed DEI incentives in the workplace and education. In addition, I am excluded from the groups they are trying to promote, so not only am I not a concern for the leftists, but their policies and inflation have caused damage.

[Opinion Owner]

How though? How does helping other groups get job and education opportunities hurt your group? Nobody is barring you from the same opportunities. You can still apply to all the same jobs and schools. How have you been hurt by this?

[ForevrLonely29]

Yes, but in the competitive nature of my job, declining my application in favor of someone else because of their race, gender, or ethnicity does hurt me. All the applications I have completed asks DEI questions. I figured refusing to identify may actually help me.

[Opinion Owner]

That's illegal, it's called discrimination. If someone declines your application because of your race, gender, or ethnicity, you need to report it. They can get in serious trouble for that. DEI questions legally cannot be used to make any effect in the hiring process. They're only to be used for data allnalysis AFTER someone has been hired, to have a rough estimate of the number of (already hired) employees of different races and genders there are.

[Opinion Owner]

Also they legally cannot be mandatory, so you can absolutely choose not to answer them.

[ForevrLonely29]

This happens a lot actually. Workplaces and universities are trying to make their workforce more "diverse" and will prioritize certain students and candidates based on their race or ethnicity. DEI is actually discrimination in the name of "diversity and inclusion".

[Opinion Owner]

If it happens then REPORT it. This is NOT the intended (or legal) function of DEI.

Jews?

Dude... Do you have any idea of how much the Left is popular because of the support of the Jewish communities?

They thought they'd be spared from the liberal's rage and only the "oppressor white man" would be targeted. They are okay with that. But now they're being targeted for supporting a real genocidal state. Oh, shocking!

[OfDeath]

You have a misguided view of what left means. Left is not loony bin gender benders and feminists.

The political left is those who are in favour of a social safety net and investment in public health and education as opposed to the right which are in favour of extreme capitalism where the vulnerable have to rely on trickle down economics.

What you consider “left” has nothing to do with actual politics.

[ForevrLonely29]

You speak of economical factors. There are more to politics than economics. Social issues intersects into politics, hence the reason I mentioned the term "sociopolitical".

[DarkLegacy]

Younger people and women are hurt by it but they do not know it and full for it. But yes white men are very hurt by it. I should also add men with disabilities also because the left takes support away from them and gives it to the single mums.

[Anonymous]

The only people not harmed by left-wing political ideologies are left-wing politicians. The problem is, many of the people who have been harmed by it are not bright or honest enough to realize it.
