Yea, this hate for white men alone is weird. I've heard nastier shit from women in my many years. It's almost like anyone can be a hateful piece of shit, and drawing these hard lines does nothing but help keep people separate.

This is ABSOLUTELY correct but only half the equation. Assholes come from everywhere, but white male assholes from the colonial era engineered a system that pegs your ability to ACT on that horridness to your proximity to their racial and gender group. And the assholes in successive generations of said white men have made it their lives' work to maintain those lines and stay powerful. Everyone has the capacity to be horrible, it's just that this specific group set up extensive infrastructure for it.

I'd assume that women are more worried about being gang raped than about being hunted for sport. Big talking point for far righters, at least here in Europe (nevermind that actually, most rapes happen between people with personal connections).

So your perception is that a minoritized group targets the majority group more than that group targets them?
