What Bill O'Reilly did see

The "White Males" are arguing that their voice is more important then anyone else's. They are claiming that anyone who disagrees with them is un-American, uneducated, destructive, and conspiratorial.

The "White Males" in question demonize those who propose ideas instead of arguing the policy itself.

White males absolutely should have a voice - but so should each and every person, whether their ancestors came from Asia, Europe, Africa, whether they are male or female, regardless of sexuality or religious belief. No one has the right to more than one vote.

I am a white male. I have seen how my skin color has been to my advantage. I have seen where a man's black and brown skin was a disadvantage.

The insane gerrymandering in Texas, the illogical and bankrupt reasoning of Citizens United, the new hurdles put in place against voting, the millions spent by the Kock brothers, and Mr. O'Reilly's attempts to maintain culture war, all - in my opinion of course - derive from a desire to turn back the social clock to a time when most people believed that God ordained an order to society: men over women, whites over blacks, Asians and Latins forgotten and treated as though they don't exist, Christian over Jew and other non-Christians, Protestant over Catholic, rich over middle class, middle class over poor, etc.

But that is not what is happening. A nearly unbelievable order of social equality is developing. The atavistic animal like hierarchies of dominance are slowly loosing dominance. But because those hierarchies are loosing dominance, the people who are invested in maintaining older orders are pissed, scared and are doing everything they can to stop what is inevitable. While I don't see our political system ever evolving into an Eden (greed, lust, ambition will always be present) I do see a nation that slowly is evolving toward living up to the ideals set, strangely enough, over 200 years ago. That is what frightens Mr. O'Reilly - that the essential ideas of equality of person, of one person one vote -for all people - is slowly becoming reality.
