Are we really going to just keep repeating these cycles over and over? Do Humans learn nothing?
These low-effort comparisons to previous movements don't work, because this isn't the underdogs coming up or anything like that. This is THE status-quo trying to maintain it's status-quo status as they feel it slipping. It's sort of similar to how Trump was able to campaign on his anti-establishment message, while he himself IS the establishment.
White men are not the victims in all of this, and are certainly not the victims in corporate America. They run corporate America. This shift highlights a larger society-wide shift to conservatism and the far-right. While we had a small window of progressiveness in the 2010s which landed up many wins, such as the legalization of gay marriage, society is once again closing in as the top brass starts to feel their way of life is threatened.
Yes ideally we would want to live in a world where the patriarchy doesn't exist, or where whiteness as a concept doesn't exist. But we are not in that world. So when we have movements such as these, we have to understand they're not coming from a place of unfairness or inequality. They're coming from a place of the establishment, the status-quo, the power, wishing to maintain their power.
You don't get any moral highground here, sorry. It's not as simple as those who believe in equal value versus those who don't. The world is complicated, such as naive and simple world view as the equalivent of "I don't see color" doesn't hold up to any amount of scrutiny or analysis. You may not wish to see it, but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
