I feel like this perfectly encapsulates the logic of straight white geek boys who were bullied at school, then turned into trolls, MRAs and gamergaters in adulthood. They’ve internalised that past victimisation as the reason why geek and fan spaces must always be for them and them alone, so that any attempt to diversify or point out the social privileges they have as adults is met with furious rage. And if you suggest that issues can be intersectional, such that being bullied at school doesn’t magically prevent someone from being sexist or racist? Well, damn: that means you must be bullying them all over again.
