I'm not going to quote specific paragraphs because it's a short article and I feel a lot of times quoted passages are the only thing discussed in these threads. Anyways, back on topic.

This feels like the opposite side of the coin to the veiled racism of right-wingers trotting out statistics about black crime and incarceration. The response is always about how socio-economic factors contribute strongly to crime statistics, so why isn't it the same for whites? Is it really about misogyny and patriarchy, or is it about a failed system of education, diagnosis, and rehabilitation of the mentally ill? Or is it actually solely to blame on the prevalence of guns in America?  Maybe it's a mix of all of those: unvilified subcultures of masculinity being particularly prominent in the mentally ill and worsened by the availability of guns, both legally and illegally. Who knows.

Post your thoughts after reading the article.

So basically if we drop the idea that everything is oppression, but borrow the notion that our social issues are caused by interaction between various cultural and social factors, you have a viable way of looking at problems.

Borrow it from whom? Every social scientist on the face of the planet who isn't a lunatic is also an intersectionalist. The whole bullshit about intersectional social justice and feminism is a valid concept taken by them; we need to reclaim it, more than anything.

lel, Arthur Chu's opinion is about as relevant as a stormfag's. If I wanted to hear the ramblings of a delusional sexist I'd read the Guardian.

My thoughts are you should have screencapped or used pastebin instead of posting a link, all you've done is given Salon ad revenue.

Here's the thing though. It's creepy, socially awkward, mentally damaged white kids that do this. There are no black people doing this. There were like one or two Asians that have done this, and they were supposedly getting bullied.

This has nothing to do with there simply being a lot of white people. This is about how white people are brought up and how they tend to have a higher tendency to have mental illnesses and do sick shit like this.

Uneducated people usually don't form the moral and ethical conclusions that lead to extreme actions like mass murder. Blacks are disproportionately undereducated. Asians are a tiny fraction of the populace, yet whadya know, they are educated and we can see some outlier behavior from their demographic.
