I'm a white male gamer on destiny.

Hello everyone, I just want everyone to know that I am in fact a bearded, white male who plays Destiny. People always say to me when they learn about me "Hey whitey, why don't you go lift your jeep? Go muddin and drink some keystone?" And I get very concerned, I have a jeep, it's not lifted, I do like off roading, and I prefer Miller Lite. I get that we are different, but isn't that our goal in life? To be unique? Then lately I've been hit with the devastating accusation about favorable RNG because my skin color. They say, "Hey you pale face, RNG favors you in this world... You don't even have the struggle OUR people deal with!" Then from the ladies when I have a idea on raids I get the "Shut up! you gross male pig, go kill yourself, women rule everything. Without us you wouldn't exist." I mean, I just have a few ideas about placement and safety. I understand women carry babies, but how does that factor into who goes where and weapons to use? It hurts my heart. I don't understand it. I was born this way. I just want to play video games, drink beer, and eat hamburger helper. I didn't earn my AS in Administration of Justice from a community college that the VA paid for while also paying me a monthly paycheck to just be talked down to by this community. I am hurt, yet hopeful for change.

  • idk why these threads keep popping up, but just for the record -- there are actual marginalized individuals and entire communities whose lives are seriously misrepresented and dictated by normalized versions of societal existence. The Internet is a bad place to get a good idea of what happens in the real world. Jokes about "straight white male hating" really only helps make a joke out of the whole issue of socio economic / gender / sexual / class / racial inequalities
