I use a simplified outlook that white males create the following culture:

1 - If you can't take a joke, you don't deserve to be taken seriously.

2 - If you're a minority who can take a joke, everyone shall mindlessly repeat jokes to make themselves look good and you look bad.

3 - Complaining about white males (or asking for equality) means complaining about our jokes, so you don't deserve to be taken seriously.
