What's this?

Projecting? Uh, no. Just because some academic somewhere is curious

about a small subset of white men who are angry and violent doesn’t mean they are painting all white men with that brush. That you feel somehow threatened and/or insulted by their intellectual curiosity just because it concerns people who coincidentally share your race and gender is your problem, not their projection or mine. Why would you call it racist unless that’s your own projection? As for intellectual curiosity, yours apparently goes no further than counting other peoples’ beans. That’s fine though. Bean counters are useful to thinking people. Must be mind numbing though. Seems to have turned you into a nihilist.

No males ever got angry before 1950. Very interesting stuff. LOL. ** -- Hokieesith 08/15/2022 09:38AM

I do wonder if they will only study angry rednecks...or will they include -- Tuckahokie 08/15/2022 08:22AM

Nope, just the ones that have experienced someone asking -- VaTechie 08/15/2022 11:46AM

You sound a bit... angry. ** -- HoosWillWin 08/15/2022 08:56AM

Best I can figure people that make those posts think everyone is as bitter -- HokieDan95 08/15/2022 09:21AM

Not guilt so much as the narcissism/self congratulatory nature of wokeness ** -- HokieDan95 08/15/2022 08:44AM

There was none of that before wokeness!!! SMDH! All "wokeness fault." -- HoodatB 08/15/2022 09:48AM

LOL from the same people that have lived and breathed raging about Trump -- HokieDan95 08/15/2022 09:55AM

Wokeness gave Trump the opportunity he had to be President. -- Hokieesith 08/15/2022 10:01AM

Another way this could be said, is the resistance to change ** -- HoodatB 08/15/2022 12:17PM

Educated Rednecks ** -- Tuckahokie 08/15/2022 08:59AM

Great question as usual from you. ** -- BocaHoo91 08/15/2022 08:31AM

Don't you wonder why they would teach a course like that? -- Hokieesith 08/15/2022 09:40AM

There were four mass shootings in the entire decade of the 1950s in the US. -- SixerHoo 08/15/2022 5:05PM

Do you realize how stupid that is? 138 white guys -- Hokieesith 08/15/2022 6:04PM

What’s your response to the tremendous increase in mass shootings? -- SixerHoo 08/15/2022 6:15PM

It’s because all white men are bad. Lol. -- Hokieesith 08/15/2022 6:57PM

Projecting? Uh, no. Just because some academic somewhere is curious -- SixerHoo 08/16/2022 03:27AM

Yes it does. And it’s racist. It’s not intellectual -- Hokieesith 08/16/2022 06:34AM

Sorry you’re so threatened by it. Maybe a good therapist could help you -- SixerHoo 08/16/2022 07:01AM

What victimhood? What threats? You just don't like the truth. -- Hokieesith 08/16/2022 1:46PM

You don’t have to SAY you’re a victim. It’s quite obvious that you BELIEVE -- SixerHoo 08/16/2022 1:57PM

No. That's not what is going on. You just don't know the difference -- Hokieesith 08/16/2022 2:23PM

Nothing in your posting history suggests you have the capacity to -- SixerHoo 08/16/2022 3:19PM

You understand the entire course based on the title? It surely succeeded -- HoodatB 08/15/2022 09:49AM

Something as insane as that title should get anyone's attention. -- Hokieesith 08/15/2022 09:54AM

Not sure how a title of -- HoodatB 08/15/2022 1:54PM

Really. They went out and compared all the angry white males -- Hokieesith 08/15/2022 1:59PM

From a mass shootings perspective I am sure the numbers are staggering -- HoodatB 08/15/2022 2:57PM

Not really. I don’t care. There are lots of stupid college courses. -- BocaHoo91 08/15/2022 09:46AM

Then you can also be happy in having figures like Trump in the future. ** -- Hokieesith 08/15/2022 09:50AM

Maybe for a bit. But the angry white men -- BocaHoo91 08/15/2022 09:56AM

Not for a bit. For the long haul. And it's justified to have that. -- Hokieesith 08/15/2022 09:58AM

Why should a group be attacked like that? -- BocaHoo91 08/15/2022 10:07AM

Nice even response. It's great having a civil discussion with you. ** -- Hokieesith 08/15/2022 10:15AM

Don’t be such a wuss. ** -- BocaHoo91 08/15/2022 10:19AM

I have no idea why you think I'm being a wuss. -- Hokieesith 08/15/2022 10:25AM

Seems like you’re complaining about my sharp elbows. -- BocaHoo91 08/15/2022 10:37AM

You think it's just old white men? -- Hokieesith 08/15/2022 10:43AM

From a voter demographic standpoint it’s older men -- BocaHoo91 08/15/2022 11:53AM

Why? ** -- Seattle .Hoo 08/15/2022 10:04AM

Obviously a white male cannot teach a course on angry white males. That -- Lazarus 08/15/2022 08:37AM

Why do you think those FBI protesters in Arizona were -- hooshouse 08/15/2022 08:23AM

With signs that FBI arrest "traitors." LAHoo-level lack of self-awareness. ** -- Seattle .Hoo 08/15/2022 08:40AM
