If someone with a psych degree can add a new term to the list of disorders, I’d be much obliged. Let’s call it “Virtual Empathy Overload Syndrome” and define it as “Someone who can’t read another hot take and/or virtue signaling attempt, be it in the form of a solidarity avatar, hashtag, or asinine essay from mush-minded twits desperate for strangers to know Just How Much They Care(TM).” Because I’m suffering from it and need some kind of pill. Or a special bathroom. That’s how it works, right? Bake me a cake or I’ll sue.
Not helping is Vox’s latest take straight from their porcelain throne: blaming a specific gender and race, rather than ideology, for acts of terrorism. Behold a headline and byline so problematic, I used my control + B option. This sh!t is getting serious.
White American men are a bigger domestic terrorist threat than Muslim foreigners Since Trump took office, more Americans have been killed by white American men with no connection to Islam than by Muslim terrorists or foreigners.
Both the headline and subhead need an enema. Lemme snap on some sterile gloves and get to it.
Firstly, and this is the thru line throughout the entire post “White American men” is singling out people by their race, gender, and country of origin. Which up until Friday, was a strict no-no in the How to Be a Woke Leftist guide book. Which Lena Dunham passed out with glow-in-the-dark condoms. Compare that to “Muslim foreigners” who can be defined as either gender (yes, there are only two, grab a paper bag and take deep breaths) adhering to a certain set of religious and political tenets. Such as believing women are second class citizens.

White men came up with commercial junk food/fast food/frozen foods etc etc.

It depends on your use of terms. Do “white men” kill more people in the U.S. each year than “Islamic terrorists” do? I’ll bet they do, especially if you count “white men” who kill themselves, “white men” involved in fatal traffic accidents, etc.
However, this comparison isn’t of the slightest use.
>> Since Trump took office, more Americans have been killed by white American men with no connection to Islam than by Muslim terrorists or foreigners.
526 dead in Chicago alone since 2017 began. Want to guess the skin color of the shooters?
And Paddock could very well turn out to be one of them.
Ping.
WTH is “Vox”?
There is nothing more dangerous than a white man on a mission. Such men develop sound plans, are well organized, conscientious and driven.
A “general interest news site” according to the website.

Similar to Huff Post. They have a partnership (and/or were purchased by) with NBC.
Thank you!
You’re welcome.
I bet Muslims kill more Muslims than anyone else,too.
The Iran-Iraq War, for example.
