> fragile white guys

> An unfortunate sacrifice, but necessary none the less.

Whoa. Seriously? You claim to fight against discrimination and you use this kind of language? Can you name an event in history where an "unfortunate but necessary sacrifice" of a particular category of human being ever resulted in a net-good? I can't.

And what do you mean by "fragile", exactly? I'm starting to nervously suspect there's some underlying subtext here.Are "tough" white guys are ok?. They're certainly more sexually attractive. That's been pretty well established.

Full disclosure: I'm not really the prototypical HNer. I started coding late in life, due to many different reasons. To be (perhaps too) honest, I used to have few interests outside of partying.

In college, I was in a big fraternity. I was the only "minority" in my pledge class. So I know what it's like to be called a spic and a beaner. I know what real discrimination feels like. During this time, I spent a lot of time with white guys who were "not fragile". These guys were sexist as hell. This was in the 2010's and at a very liberal college town of Boulder, Colorado. I have to say, for all the overt sexism I witnessed, I never saw these types of white guys get as much shit for being sexist monsters as the nerdy white guys with the hentai wallpaper/t-shirt/whatever seems to get.

It kinda breaks my heart, I'm not going to lie.

So, point blank, is it just the skinny, fragile, white nerds that are the "pale devil"?

I simply can't agree with this. It seems immature and grossly unnecessary.

It alienates all sorts of reasonable human beings.

Quite frankly, I can't see how you're a justifying such behaviour without looking within and see what kind of polarisation it causes.

I think she's trying to do more than that. She's standing up to the people telling her to move back to India and calling her various slurs and demeaning terms. The article left that out because it's clickbait inciting rage.
