Hard to play the victim card when you are in the majority that controls a vastly disproportionate amount of power and wealth.

Minority or majority has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with whether or not you are discriminated against. You KNOW this. Or you're a fraud.
Yeah, that's definitely false. I always look to employment law for this type of thing and the law clearly makes it available for a person of any gender, race, religion, etc., whether a part of the majority or minority, to claim discrimination. Now, systemic discrimination is a different matter, but you can definitely be discriminated against as a cis, straight, white, male, Protestant in this country.
