First off, I never once said those things aren't actual problems. I never even implied it. Your attempt at whataboutism has no relevance. You may as well have just said "first world problems" instead of typing all that up, if that's the perspective you're coming at this conversation with.
Your entire position seems to be that knowingly using inaccurate, inflammatory rhetoric is fine because of the demographic's complicity in the injustices that you've brought up. My two cents is simply that inaccurate, inflammatory rhetoric that paints all white cis het men with the same brush is going to lead to conversational derails when people who have different opinions from the ones posited by your generalization are present in the conversation. Again, I will source the website's demographic, it is a gaming website after all, it skews heavily white, cis, and male, and many of them will feel like they fall outside of said rhetoric given that the userbase of this site does heavily skew left. They are very much a part of the conversations that this forum has, and their participation is a natural consequence.
It's apparent I'm not going to change your mind or anything here, so it simply would be best if we dropped it. It's just going to devolve into an "Uh huh!" "Nuh uh!" about the complicity of all white men from here on out now that we've both shared our points of view, and ultimately it's only tangenetially related to the main thrust of the thread anyway.
