They are victims of the younger, more diverse America that rejected Trump and voted for Biden. They are victims of their own white male aggrievement and resentment.
Conservatives have officially become a sad group of angry, bitter, whining, radicalized, and mostly white men, who fear being made irrelevant by the inevitable demographic changes of America’s 21st century and as such now call themselves, wait for it, “victims.”
They lie, openly. They distort the truth. They claim that their heritage is being stolen from them when confederate flags and monuments are removed from public places. They rail against critical race theory, diversity and inclusion training, calls for social justice and police reform, and label it “socialism,” which they associate with every Democrat from AOC to Biden.

Anyone who believes that they are being victimized should speak up, make their case.
This illegal illegitimate regime that runs America is at fault...not me.... they do not represent me and I have long objected to their crimes against humanity.
White Male Conservatives Think They’re America’s Real Victims

Guno and I agree on most things, but all old white males aren't Republicans. I'm a democratic socialist, lower case letters.
A multi-cultural nation is hard to pull off.
It always has been in the past, and some people are better at it than others.
Homogenous nations have the solidarity to do more things collectively.
Multi-cultural nations tend to be socially regressive--like America.
The reality is that people want different things, and from our very inception as a nation,
we foolishly put former colonies with very different values into the same new nation.
Every state has all kinds of people in it, but only one group of people within each state--the majority--gets their way.
Anybody who doesn't agree that most interior states and most coastal states have, within their majorities, radically different values
is not being honest. Interior states tend to be far less cosmopolitan and far more provincial. We see in our national politics that both groups
have enough clout to make the other pretty miserable.
Both sides constantly complain, but neither side has the courage to take the radical steps required to alleviate the situation.
The 50 state American format is an abject failure,
and both sides are too optimistic in thinking that they can make it work.
Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel. Samuel Johnson, 1775
Religion....is the opiate of the people. Karl Marx, 1848
Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose. Kris Kristofferson, 1969
