From the perspective of other white men I'm sure he's a great guy and since that's almost universally the case here FFs will have the day.The lack of empathy for people who aren't white men is a bit disconcerting though.

I am not a big fan of misogyny and racism though, even if it is all beneficial to me.

BRTD logic wins the day. All misogynists must support all anti-women positions and one must either always hate or always love every person in the world.

It's funny how Memphis calls me out of touch when he thinks that it is easier for women than for men to get high-paying executive positions and also thinks that Sweden is a country where women have it especially tough. His level of ignorance is so high it is hard to take seriously.

Prejudices are difficult concepts to understand thoroughly, especially if one belongs to the more privileged group out of two groups (like being a white man, for example). One can still understand the plight of others through empathy, assuming one possesses it. While I certainly don't claim to fully understand what it's like to be a woman or an ethnic minority I at least understand that it's a problem and do not, like Memphis, delude myself into thinking that they are enjoying unfair privileges while us white men must bear the burden. A position that I think is quite deserving of scorn.
