AMERICA'S WHINIEST VICTIM



Feeling Rebloggy 

"Trump won because he whines.

He whines in a way that makes the weak feel less vulnerable and more vicious.
He makes feeling sorry for himself feel like fighting back.
In this way he was a perfect reflection of the new Whiny Right. Trump is its instrument, articulation, embodiment. He’s not so much representative of it but of an idea — the waning power of whiteness, privilege, patriarchy, access, and the cultural and economic surety that accrues to the possessors of such. Trump represents their emerging status of victims-in-their-own-minds."
