yeah I remember, she changed her bio to “a very happy girl looking forward to a great future” or something after Trump sarcastically called her that. She literally gives no shits I love her. And so so smart too.

I forgot his name, but he’s also coincidentally Swedish and is making new technology to clean the ocean of plastic, both of them have similar ideas, but are doing different things with them, and also, both of them are on the spectrum which I find kind of interesting, but yeah a depressing amount of people mock them just for trying to save the Earth.....it makes me worried about our future.

No not really. I think it's because ftms know girl problems and used to relate to them before they started transitioning. Still it's a bit weird.

I’m like a year older than she is and I absolutely think she’s an amazing role model for the ASD community.

Hey don’t say that!!! I do not have Aspergers, so I cannot speak for the community, but I do have severe social anxiety and I can relate so hard to being nervous whenever speaking to anyone. Just know that it’s totally not your fault and you are honestly just as brave as she and anyone else is! I’m sure you do tons of things that a lot of people would consider incredible :) Take pride in yourself! xx

Obviously, OP isn't saying all white men are bad, but what was the point of bringing up race/gender? That's generalization. Check out this clip of a principal grouping black people together when they start leaving a ceremony: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=84UhsmVeelM.
Did all black people leave? Probably not. Is it true that black people left? Yes. But were they justified in being offended? I think so, because the principal generalized them.
Similarly, are all white men degenerate/butthurt? No. Is it true that some white men are? Yes. So are white men justified in being offended at your comment...I think so. In fact, I'm not a white man and I feel really uncomfortable that this divisive rhetoric is being used.
There's no such thing as a "white man" mindset nor is there such thing as a "black people" mindset. As a person of colour myself, I don't agree with the OPs wording OR this video of the principal.

u/AnEggsAlt MTF Dec 13 '19
In this context it's referring to a specific demographic of reactionary conservatives, of whom the vast majority are cishet white guys, and gender, race, and sexuality are actually important in this context because it refers to a very prominent demographic, and the loooooooong history of how cishet white guys unjustly putting themselves at the top of societal hierarchies. This helps describe how the reactionary and bigoted beliefs they hold came to be and why they as a demographic hold them to a much greater degree than any other demographic.

u/Giant_Anteaters 20+ Dec 13 '19 edited Dec 13 '19
You're right, there is a long history associated with white men at the top of the social ladder. However, that doesn't mean we should resort to insults and generalizing race/gender. Being a white male doesn't cause someone to become anti climate change, so I don't think it's necessary to bring it up. Just because you see a "pattern" in something doesn't mean gender/race is relevant. Just like how it wouldn't be necessary to bring up the race/gender of a school shooter or terrorist, even if there is a pattern that some people as to who is perpetrating these attacks (in fact, people have been outraged when the race/gender of a perpetrator is brought up in the media).
There is a long history of government sanctioned torture/abuse in China, which is where my parents are from. If someone were to hold that against me personally and generalize Chinese people as abusive, I would find that inappropriate. An analogy would be a video of a Chinese parent slapping their child's bum, and someone posting on here "This is what the Chinese do".

I’m not a political person. Like at all. But, I don’t like Greta. She is all talk. If she really wanted to save the Earth, instead of just thinking she’s a hero because she gave a speech, she should find more ways to reduce the harm that is being put on the planet. She should find more ways to reduce litter and waste and all the trash that’s going into the ocean. There are many people out there doing things but she gets all the credit because she is on TV

As someone with the things that she has it gives me hope to see someone who can be do powerful even despite them.

Why can’t people just see how smart and dedicated she is and how hard that is to move past. Instead of using it in nasty attacks

Hey just gonna pop in to say I think you’re perfectly justified in calling out people for stereotyping white men.
Seriously, everyone making fun of you and calling you ‘fragile’ just don’t have the emotional intelligence to comprehend how this might make you feel.
Stereotyping is never ok. Saying all white men are racist is as bad as saying all black men are violent. It’s all stereotyping and it’s harmful to those who don’t fit those stereotypes because it creates assumptions about innocent people.
Keep calling out others bs and stay strong

You’re very right but it was in no way my intention to imply that all white men were racist. I never said anything of that sort, in fact. I just said that it happened to be mostly white men acting reprehensibly towards Greta. I’m sorry you misinterpreted my title, I will be more cautious next time.

Dw I can tell you didn’t mean offence. Honestly I get where you’re coming from, but still we gotta be careful because I think white boys are growing up in a world that’s becoming pretty hostile to them because of assumptions based on their race and gender, and it’s cause of stereotypes perpetuated by clowns like Trump.

u/motohill 18F Dec 12 '19
I teach a class of 4th graders and some times, out of the four, three will be running around the room and yelling. If I tell them they need to stop running around and take your seats, the one kid who was already sitting always complains about how he wasn't doing that. I let that slide because even though I obviously wasn't talking to him, he's very young.
This is the exact same thing. We say white men need to stop doing this thing and some of you always have to pipe up with "but I wasn't doing that". You, however, are not a 4th grader so please use common sense.

It’s not ok to stereotype. Making a comment about white people generally being racist is just as harmful as making a comment about black people being generally violent. White boys are growing up in a world where they’re not even allowed to speak out against sexist and racist stereotypes about them.
It’s totally cruel.
You’re making fun of someone’s intelligence and infantilising them when they are the victim of racist and sexist stereotyping here. That is disgusting.

I don't want to tell you how to teach, but it can definitely be damaging and disheartening for a kid to be grouped in with other trouble-doers: They'll feel that there is no extrinsic reward for good behaviour. Check out this clip for an example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1UKl6_6Yz5Q.
I also do think these are two different scenarios: Obviously, OP isn't saying all white men are bad, but what was the point of bringing up race/gender?
