Wtf are you taking about? Actual real people who are Americans are voting: women, Black and Brown Americans, recent immigrants that work hard and make our economy run and Native peoples who’s ancestors have always lived here, Trans and LGBTQ people who have always existed here (all of whom have literally been economically and socially oppressed since the founding of our country) wanting and getting representation, being democratically elected is not you “getting punished” just bc you’re a white heterosexual male.

You’re entire mentality is flawed. Actual Americans, who are citizens and just as American as you and deserve representation just like you, getting representation in government positions doesn’t take anything away from you at all and you are not the victim here. Stop flipping the narrative to center yourself. The whole point is for EVERYONE who lives here to have equal representation.

This is a democracy and if the people elect diverse candidates that actually reflect the diversity of our country then that’s what the people want. Just bc you don’t like it doesn’t mean you have to turn yourself into some sort of victim or like you’re getting punished. Just let marginalized people have more of a voice, that’s it. That’s what this person was trying to say (I agree she could have worded it better) and that’s what many of us are trying to say.

Furthermore, most elected positions are still overwhelmingly white males (look at our congress and state legislatures), there’s no insurrection against you and you’re not getting punished for being a white male-it’s just that more people are getting elected to represent actual Americans who are not white males (there are many people here who aren’t white males- in fact the majority of our population are not). Again- this is how an actual democracy works.
