      As an able-bodied neurotypical 30-something straight white cis male with a suburban middle class upbringing and an office job, I don’t participate in identity politics.

        I’ve had a conservative say essentially that to me but with a straight face. He was also convinced that white, cishet meat eater men are the most oppressed minority (literally what he said).

        Parodying conservative opinions is completely impossible nowadays; any quip anybody can come up with will be an actual conservative opinion, pretty much no matter how ridiculously stupid it is.

          My sibling’s delightful ex-roommate–a conservative, 20something, middle-class, cishet white man–said that he feels very oppressed in their college town! He’s always scared of saying what he thinks bc then everyone will think of him badly! Literally the most oppressed! (His actual words)
