Those men are the epitome of upper class white entitlement.
Princeton University freshman Tal Fortgang is the current face of white dude entitlement, but he’s not the only reminder we have right now about what happens when sheltered boys enter the world feeling that they’re owed something and believing that their actions don’t have consequences.
Call it whatever you’d like. Toxic masculinity. Frat mentality. Patriarchal bullshittery. But put really simply, the problem is that our culture doesn’t generally encourage boys to feel compassion or curiosity beyond a very narrow sphere of their experience, and then some grow up to be terrible jerks.

These guys need to grow up and get over it! This is not just their country anymore. It's made up of diverse peoples of every race, nation, culture, religion, and class. They are part of this country's culture and history whether those entitled racist men like it or not.
