I'm going with the verbage used in the Atlantic article, which describes a backlash. Augmented Seventh (talk) 06:45, 25 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Backlash is clearly not neutral but hey whatever --27.96.192.129 (talk) 06:49, 25 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You're removing sourced content, and adding new, without a source.

Please source and cite your additions correctly for inclusion.

Thanks in advance, Augmented Seventh (talk) 06:56, 25 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's not cited outside of a dictionary that it is a stereotype.

Information icon Hi 27.96.192.129! I noticed that you have reverted to restore your preferred version of Angry white male several times. The impulse to undo an edit you disagree with is understandable, but I wanted to make sure you're aware that the edit warring policy disallows repeated reversions even if they are justifiable.

All editors are expected to discuss content disputes on article talk pages to try to reach consensus. If you are unable to agree at Talk:Angry white male, please use one of the dispute resolution options to seek input from others. Using this approach instead of reverting can help you avoid getting drawn into an edit war. Thank you. Eteethan (talk) 07:31, 25 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The article deals with concepts outside of the voting franchise.

The edit was reverted. Augmented Seventh (talk) 07:32, 25 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If you read the article in full it's about politics through and through. 27.96.192.129 (talk) 07:34, 25 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Ok so at this point you've reverted Angry white male four times, including the most recent revert of me after the warning I gave you. Can we please stop this edit warring, return the page to how it was (ie stereotype), and both discuss and gain consensus on the talk page before changing this again? Eteethan (talk) 07:41, 25 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
We're at odds here, you're telling me to ignore conventions and edit on "what we think" which is clearly wp:synth. No we can't revert to stereotype, because it only ensures that it is a fixed and oversimplified version of the facts to which these people do not actually belong. It's more than evident that these people exist and that they are just not a stereotype like Santa Claus which we know existed as Saint Nicholas. Your biggest problem here if you want to substantiate it as a stereotype is providing valid neutral sources that it is just a stereotype. I don't think that's achievable but if you want to source something more than the dictionary you can establish that it is a stereotype. Knock yourself out I'm done here for today. I'm sick of the misuse of wp:brd as a means of filibustering editing. That's clearly Wikipedia:BADFAITH. But I've done this so many times I don't want to engage in bad faith. --27.96.192.129 (talk) 07:48, 25 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
All I am saying is that instead of getting in an edit war we resolve the issue before making changes on the article page. You clearly seem familiar with Wikipedia policies, so I am surprised you're engaging in an edit war especially after being warned.
The first result looking up "angry white male" on is a CNN article ([1]) which states "The Brute. The Buck. And, of course, the Thug. Those are just some of the names for a racial stereotype that has haunted the collective imagination of White America since the nation’s inception."
I'm going to restore "stereotype" with this source and we can discuss on the article talk. Thanks! Eteethan (talk) 07:55, 25 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'm more than happy to discuss this on the appropriate talk page. What I am not going to waste my time in engaging in is endless cycles of BRD that are clearly designed to stifle the development of an encyclopedia, or even to push agendas. --27.96.192.129 (talk) 08:00, 25 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
