White men were the peak of society. Every policy, improvising the rights of all other people, especially women, is chipping away from their Throne. Naturally, some will see this as a threat and a loss, especially when you are regularly feed with misinformation. That society as a whole is becoming better, doesn't help the groups who are losing from it. And this is showing for a while now.


> White men were the peak of society.

Most white men are not at the peak of society. When they are told how good they have it, they think about how their paycheck barely/doesn't cover their needs, or the needs of his family. They think about how long their car will last before breaking down. They think about the amount of crime in their neighborhood. And then they are told that this is the good life? And they discover that the government is giving people who just got here handouts (which is made from their taxes, money that could have improved their own lives)? They won't stand for it.

Today. This was different 60 years ago. This is different today in more conservative countries. At least that is the perception of those people.

Everyone has those problems, it's not limited to men or white people.

> And they discover that the government is giving people who just got here handouts

And here we have the prime example of manipulation. The reason why all those young men fall to this delusion.

Critical race theory says that white men are and were always at the top. It appears to be a pillar of modern progressive politics. But when one demographic is the majority, they also tend to be the majority across all income brackets.

People at the 'peak of society' wouldn't worry about those problems. They would have the power and/or money to not have those problems.
