so not only did reply 1 not mention "toxic white masculinity" but it came off like lip service when shit hit the fan, especially when you can cosign statements like
> Some of you guys are reacting to the phrase like white folks
>do when we mention white privilege or institutional racism.
White folks aren't disconnected from those things, yet white patriarchy is hegemonic, meaning only a certain (white) group of males is included. Other males are termed "subordinate" and are targeted for subjugation and/or elimination. So this idea yall keep submitting is deeply flawed. There's a really good reason Black men react this way to being called patriarchal, and when you consider the historical labeling of black males as rapists and beasts, even while black males were enslaved, there's really good reason why we don't react well to being called "toxic" by a society that has always treated us as toxic regardless of how we've conducted ourselves... and that continues to happen. The only difference now is that some of our own are Team White Supremacy and have joined this centuries-long jihad against us.
