The grievances of white conservatives
Philip Bump has a good piece on his site today about the right’s inferiority complex. It’s an old story but it’s never been more relevant:
This is predictable. They think white people and evangelicals are suffering from discrimination which is simple bullshit and they ludicrously believe that men are more discriminated against than women.
I do find it interesting that Republicans admit that immigrants and transgender people are discriminated against, as well as those who are Hispanic, Black and Muslim. Apparently they just believe they should be? They certainly don’t support measures to protect any of them from it.
I would imagine that if they’d asked, the Republicans would say that the people who face the most discrimination in America are … Republicans. Their grievances know no bounds.
