The “White Dudes for Harris” virtual call was the latest in a series of Zoom gatherings to raise money and rally support among tens of thousands of supporters for Kamala Harris.

As a white guy, yes there are issues that need to be addressed like our particular type of toxic masculinity that is based on entitlement that is a common precurser to being an incel. Think of all the stereotypes where your first thought is “white guy”, those are problems because they frequently lead to violence when they fall to hateful ideologies.
They are different problems that mostly consist of not being terrible instead of overcoming obstacles, but they are atill problems that need addressed.
To clarify the wording, are the “white male” issues they need addressed by the campaign? Racial organizations have a purpose when being used to seek support, otherwise you can just organize as anti-racist or feminist. No racial or sexual restrictions needed to just talk about being better people.
The issue with the idea of pulling the proto-incels back from the brink is they know feminist men exist and despise them. They’re not going to be surprised by the idea that some white men feel they have an obligation to support women. They’re part of the gynocracy or whatever their term is. Unless the white men club is actually a club that gives them racial and sexual solidarity, i.e., does the bad things, there isn’t a reason for them to feel kinship and accept influence.
