That's "white male votes," obviously.Some HRC supporters have proposed that courting white make votes is no longer necessary to win and this is a good thing. 1

I agree with both the observation of the electoral eclipse of white males and the judgment that this is a good thing. 2

Recognition of these facts isn't hateful or dismissive at all. Approving them follows from rejection of white supremacy & male domination. 3

By the way, millions upon millions of white guys are supporting HRC.Why wouldn't they? Nothing preceding recommends otherwise. 4

The "its" refers to the Clinton campaign.It's easy to judge Clinton the better candidate even if you aren't the center of its universe. All you have to do is get over yourself. 5

Anybody who thinks it is "self-flagellation" for a white guy like me to deplore white supremacy or male dominance is rather sad. 1

Neither is it self-flagellation to recognize as a beneficiary of privilege I have to be vigilant about complicity in what I deplore. 2

Oppression is painful, why should anybody expect efforts to overcome it to be painless to its beneficiaries, even if they would resist it? 3

Why on earth would it be hateful or self-hating to find whiny white guys ridiculous as they're marginalized from their unearned privilege? 4

I think all these attitudes are straightforwardly commonsensical. I am quite cheerful about them, to be honest. 5
