      A white man is allowed to fail on his own merits. While POC are constantly treated as avatars for their entire identity groups, white men get to be singular I stress men, here, because even white women are subject to this. Imagine a woman president as “emotional” as trump is

      Why, it would be cited as evidence that women AS A WHOLE were unfit for executive duty So my hypothesis here is that JP is pissed about intersectionality because it holds an uncomfortable mirror to his face: a reckoning with a life and career accelerated by a privileged identity

      There’s a wonderful paper called “White Fragility” that neatly explains the spastic flailings we see from folks like JP during these kinds of discussions. You must read it. http://libjournal.uncg.edu/ijcp/article/download/249/116 …pic.twitter.com/KpJrlQxYVH

      While DiAngelo is concerned with race, I think you can extrapolate a corollary system of fragility around discussions of gender for men. White, male fragility around identity is real, and well demonstrated by the likes of JP. All this to say: it happens all the time

      What is vexing about folks like JP is that no amount of good faith discussion will make a difference. The cognitive dissonance of their fragility is like a forcefield that allows no information to pass. I have no idea how you solve this problem.

      Your concluding question motived my phd. Coming up on the end, I have lots of qualitatively pleasing / compelling prescriptions. But, only as abstractions in closed systems. In the wild, complexity reduces their impacts to something grossly swamped out by reality.

      It was really unsettling to me for a while. It rejects the mindset of optimization as a general solution that I had taken to (for lots of reasons I'm sure you could diagnosis easily). And, it leaves perpetual activism and vigilance in its place.

      I mean, what about works of culture? I do find that, in my work doing tech D&I, leveraging culture to make a point is a reliable approach. Star Trek as a parable for inclusion, for example

      Sorry, I may have been using your thread as rubber duck debugging almost. But yes, culture is the fabric I was trying to study / manipulate. I did so hoping to find technical solutions to mutating culture to produce better outcomes. (Which, yea, doesn't really work.)

      dunno, there’s one angle to this I think that could work: collapsing cost of distribution to let more kinds of people create culture I’m thinking stuff like twitter/vine. Maybe mutation is the wrong approach but handing out little thruster packs to change trajectory has promise

      Oh, absolutely. For the validating reinforcement of "you're not alone, other people think this / experience this," it's incredible! Plus, observing those changed me! Like, fuck, I worked at Cato in my early twenties!

          ...but, I also think it lets team JP folks the same benefits until social networks decide to act like communities. And, while their culture is in decline, they're still damn powerful.
