So funny story, my department had an employee survey and one of the questions that triggered a need for "team discussion" was:
"Do all people, regardless of race and gender, have good opportunities in our workplace?"
Evidently one person in the department said "no, they do not". So I'm sitting there wondering "oh crap, we are a bunch of white men except one woman and one black guy, which of those two have felt screwed over due to race or gender". But no, an older white guy proudly spoke up saying there's no room for white men at the workplace, that white men are disadvantaged. In a place that's like 90% white men...
"Those other people are starting to get more fair consideration, so now my advantage is being threatened. No fair!"
It's the worst of both. They literally enjoy privilege and advantage over others every single day, yet they also get to feel indignant and "discriminated" against.
