I don't find it particularly humorous to be perfectly honest. Invert the gender and race and I guarantee you wouldn't find it that amusing.
This just in: problems with discrimination have absolutely no context to them and must be just on a purely objective basis without regard to societal or institutional biases
I'm not sure where this condescending chip on your shoulder is coming from, but I suggest you drop of it for the sake of the discourse. Educational disadvantages are now a thing for working class white men. It's an incontestable fact. I'm not really sure what kind of illogical hoops your attempting to contort through in this discussion, but it's a problem that needs addressing without the classic cop out answer of 'oh well, it's a working class problem.' Yeah no shit, but broadchurch assessments like that are rarely ever productive. If we're to solve any problems then we need to analyse them with impartial surgical precision.

Affirmative action and gender orientated scholarships favourable towards women has pretty much left working class white males in the dust in regards to education. So yeah, I actually do think there is some form of positive discrimination going on in Britain that has left quite a substantial portion of lower income white males feeling disorientated.

Woah, all of a sudden poverty, poor education, and oppression of the working class are all problems. Strange that nobody noticed that until just recently!
It is certainly strange how nobody seems to want to talk about the fact that white males sustain the most damage from poverty.
Yeah, man
If anybody's got the short end of the stick throughout history and the modern age it's been white dudes, that's for sure.
le progressive white bashing meme
You actually going to address the statistics, or are you going to subtly denigrate and handwave genuine grievances that white males in the UK withhold?
Okay, what about the statistic do I address? The fact that white males make up a significant part of the working class of South England and that class-based divides are pretty much the ultimate divider?
Or the "RACISM NOT REAL WHITE PRIVILEGE IS FALSE HURPA DURPA" one that people love trying to push with this statistic?
No, just the fact there is a systemic problem for working class white males in the UK that we need to address, and that we should also be approaching the 'white privilege' meme with a bit more sceptical rigour.

The workers need practical jobs and skills for a trade, the academics need to not be held back by the gumby of the classroom. But how are you going to categorize the two without coming off as extremely classist? Not every working class student who can barely afford a pair of Filas is going to necessarily be gifted in handiwork, and likewise, not every upperclass toff who relies on daddy to pay for everything is going to be a sublime academic.

There's honestly more important stuff in the world to be hand wringing about, like say, actual oppression of women in predominately Islamic countries.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fallacy_of_relative_privation
This would only be a fallacy if the issue OP raised was actually an issue.
so it's a definitely a fallacy then
because just earlier, you conceded that it was a non-issue "for you"
well, not everyone's you
What exactly are the serious repercussions that arise from issues like these sans being a little emotionally uncomfortable over what people think of you then? Nothing really springs to mind for me. More to the point, what exactly are the solutions for this alleged problem?

It's really just a non issue to me as a classical liberal.

And in the West girls face immense social pressure to wear make-up. Honor killings are family specific, not inherent to Muslims.
Except you don't really get stoned to death for not wearing eye-shadow in public.

THREE FACTIONS LMAO
Eh.
FNV had 3 (4 if you technically count yourself), F3 had 2, and prior to that it was... 1?
What? FNV had like 8 factions. That's not even factoring The Strip factions either.

we still don't know if Ulfric is a sleeper agent either, by the way.
JESUS christ this fucking meme I swear to god. Can people not read?
Ulfric is not a sleeper agent. The Talmor view him as an asset because a prolonged war is good for them. I don't think I need to explain to you why, but I will if you don't know. They want a Stormcloak victory as little as they want an Imperial victory, so long as the war goes on for as long as possible.
They even describe him as uncooperative.
>is described as 'dormant' and an 'asset' in The Thalmor dossier
>conveniently manages to escape imprisonment on which the details are never divulged
Yeah okay mate, there's nothing suspicious about his background whatsoever. Keep deepthroating the Stormcloak shaft.
"uncooperative"
"uncooperative"
"uncooperative"
"uncooperative"
"Uncooperative to direct contact.
Operational Notes: Direct contact remains a possibility (under extreme circumstances), but in general the asset should be considered dormant."
"Uncooperative"
Why the fuck would they be vague in an internal document? They describe him as uncooperative to direct contact because if he realizes he's doing something the Thalmor want him to do, he won't fucking do it. He's not actively cooperating with the Thalmor. He is an asset in the sense that his actions can benefit the Thalmor in the long run- if the war drags on.
Uncooperative to direct contact=He's not going to just do what you want, you have to herd him into doing what you want him to do by setting up external conditions to compel him to act in the way you want.
Very interesting use of the word 'dormant' there. It's not an adjective I would use to describe an oblivious political tool who conveniently happens to be aiding my goals literally every step of the way, from The Markarth Incident right up to The Civil War.
But whatever. Sleeper agent or not he's playing right into The Thalmor's hands for the destruction of The Empire. Perhaps his emphasis on Talos worship will end up saving Mundus, but to me, he seems a tad more interested in Skyrim secession, which is precisely what I would expect a Thalmor sleeper agent to be doing.
The Markarth Incident was not good for the Thalmor. I'll explain why if you're interested.
It's explicitly stated in the Thalmor Dossier that the Markarth Incident aided their strategic goals (weakening of The Empire), but resulted in his uncooperative behaviour. That to me, screams some kind of magical brainwashing spell that is conflicting him. But maybe I am wrong, and Ulfric is just an oblivious retard conveniently giving The Thalmor a helping hand round every corner.

I'd rather the Empire maintain and actually still be a united fighting force against them, than Ulfric leading his racist people to screw over everyone who's lived there forever and get hated on simply for not being a nord.
It's been stated innumerable times that The Dominion have the capacity to eradicate The Empire regardless of how united or prepared they are. They just couldn't be fucked pouring the time, effort and resources into doing so. The White Gold Concordat was a genius piece of strategic display because it allowed The Dominion to erode at the fabric of Mundus without expending any resources in the process. I'm not too hot on The Stormcloaks myself but maintaining Talos worship is the best shot anyone's got at this point.

Tbf, Titus is a fucking tactical genius. The Dominion threw one of their biggest armies at Cyrodiil and Titus pretty much buttfucked them with inferior numbers but superior strategy. Let's also not forget the Battle of the Red Ring and the retaking of The Imperial City.
Not saying that makes them any more a viable option, but it would be an interesting war if Titus had the same amount of resources as The Dominion.
Nigga please
He gave up Talos worship and compromised with an Aldmeri force he totally could have defeated based on hearsay and misinformation, managing to lose Hammerfell in the process.
Titus "Cuck" Mede is not the rightful Emperor of Tamriel.
I'm just giving The Empire credit where credit's due so it doesn't devolve into a Stormcloak masturbatory thread in which we still don't know if Ulfric is a sleeper agent either, by the way. They literally threw everything that was logistically possible at him and he utterly annihilated them, then reclaimed his city as if it was a stroll in the park. That deserves at least a nod of approval.
