Straight white "moderate" men are some of the most insufferable bc they think they& #39;re the "default" humans at the center of the universe, called to correct everyone else& #39;s "excesses"—including the expressed realities of marginalized people whose experiences they can& #39;t fathom.
"If someone without all my luck and advantages in life expresses fears or worries or hurt that I& #39;ll never have to deal with, it must be because they& #39;re the sort of overly emotional wannabe victim that the conservative white men I also occasionally tut-tut talk about."
And yes, "not all straight white moderate men."
But I honestly feel like a lot of straight white men choose the "moderate" moniker because it gives them more perceived cultural power to tut-tut everyone else (especially those who aren& #39;t the human "default" like them).

And if you& #39;re wondering if you were the impetus for these tweets, if you don& #39;t have the word "moderate" in your username, it& #39;s definitely isn& #39;t you.
