A Stereotype Flip of the "Angry Black Man" Stereotype, in which a white person (generally a man) feels that modern society has done a Persecution Flip and is now discriminatory against white people, with the culprits usually being minorities or other self-hating whites. The type first appeared in large numbers in the mid-1960s, when "affirmative action" hiring became official policy of the United States federal government. This was quickly portrayed by detractors as permitting discrimination against white people and men to meet hiring quotas for women and minorities—with the unspoken implication that they're hiring inferior candidates. Over the decades, however, affirmative action has become less of a political flashpoint, with some programs being discontinued, struck down by courts, or reworked to focus on non-racial factors like income. As a result, the modern Angry White Man usually points to more oblique forms of ostensible discrimination. Many complaints by the Angry White Man are directed at modern pop culture, fully believing that New Media Are Evil. He points to things like white people being Acceptable Targets for comedy and negative stereotyping, and depictions of women and non-whites in media as Flawless Tokens, as proof of the media's "politically correct agenda". He also rails against what he claims to be whitewashed (or nonwhitewashed, as it were) history as an attempt to indoctrinate White Guilt in classrooms. But where he sees proof that Everything Is Racist, however, the rest of society sees him just Feeling Oppressed by Their Existence. Will most likely be Played for Laughs, but if not... watch out! Unsurprisingly, it is also extremely common for these characters to suffer from a bad case of Moral Myopia. They will decry any (real or imagined) injustice that they and other white people may face, no matter how minor, but won't so much as bat an eye when another group, especially a historically marginalized one, faces a similar or worse situation. In fact, they might even support or take part in marginalizing said group, all while still blaming them for their predicament. Compare Blaming "The Man", White Hair, Black Heart, Evil Colonialist, Politically Incorrect Villain, and Sub-Par Supremacist. Get extreme and militant enough, and you end up in the domain of the Right-Wing Militia Fanatic, The Klan, and A Nazi by Any Other Name. Compare and contrast "Angry Black Man" Stereotype and Malcolm Xerox, which portray black men claiming Everything Is Racist, though usually not as baseless or unjustified as the Angry White Man. The Trope Codifier was probably Archie Bunker of All in the Family, though he's arguably an Unbuilt example, being a lot less angry than many of his successors. It should also be noted that the Angry White Man doesn't have to literally be a Caucasian male. The trope can apply to any character from a historically privileged group who is constantly railing against supposed discrimination against them. No Real Life Examples, Please! noreallife Examples |

Rorschach from Watchmen seems to hate everyone who isn't either himself, the Comedian or an idealised version of what he imagines his father is like. After discovering that his mother was a streetwalker, he developed a Madonna-Whore Complex towards all women, seeing young girls and wholesome women as victims while women who embrace their sexuality are sluts who have it coming (though his disdain from his mother is more due to her abusive nature.) He makes a note of investigating Ozymandias' sexuality, not making it clear why that's necessary. He also subscribes to a newspaper that peddles racist, nationalist viewpoints. Considers the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki to be unquestionably good, but the bombing of New York to be evil. The movie adaptation plays around with this characterization, as while some of Rorschach's prejudices are downplayed, his Jerkass personality is more blatant. | |

One episode of Louie has a comedian do a series of anti-Obama jokes. Naturally, he gets a pretty awkward reaction from the audience. Afterwards, he complains about how Obama only got elected because of white guilt and that white men have now become one of the targets of mockery who aren't allowed to complain about anything. | |

This is an ongoing theme in the Timeline-191 series, particularly during in the books set after The Great War. Many white characters in the Confederacy blame their loss in the war (and therefore all their problems) on the Red Rebellion, and the fact that some black men in the Confederacy are being allowed citizenship horrifies them. The Freedom Party holds that getting white men back into sole control is the only way to fix their country, and it gains power and influence rapidly. | |

In the The House That Jack Built, the titular character at one point launches into a furious rant about how he, as a man, is being treated unfairly by society, and women in particular. That Jack is a remorseless Serial Killer who is shown to predominantly prey on women (and despite his protestations otherwise, clearly prefers reminiscing about his female victims over his male ones), and is delivering said rant at a defenseless Bound and Gagged woman as he is preparing to kill her slightly undercuts his message. | |

The Boys (2019): Stormfront is a literal 1930s Nazi and Super Supremacist whose values mutate according to her time, leading her to adopt alt-right talking points in the modern day and advocate the white genocide conspiracy theory as justification for her plot to elevate white people into a Master Race of literal supermen. Blue Hawk is a Super Supremacist whose whole gimmick is Police Brutality in black neighborhoods, and when confronted by an angry crowd during his Ordered Apology he uses crime statistics to argue that they aren't victims. He then shouts "Supe Lives Matter!" in response to their chants of "Black Lives Matter" and attacks them despite them posing no threat to him with Vought helping him cover the whole thing up. Homelander enters this territory in season 3, going on a televised rant about feeling persecuted for his strength and superiority after somebody heckles him about his past relationship with Stormfront. Ashley notes that this rant caused his popularity with white men in the Rust Belt to spike, which leads to him becoming a Trumplica lambasting the media that he owns. It's portrayed as part of his downward spiral and a symbol of his descent into an even bigger Entitled Bastard with an even bigger God complex. |

Homicide: Life on the Street: Attempted Cop Killer Gordon Pratt is a slimy, pretentious racist who blames his own failures on affirmative action and minorities infiltrating the government. During his interrogation, he belts out horrifically racist statements as fact and smugly mocks the black Lewis and Pembleton for their race; the two are barely able to keep themselves from beating the shit out of him. | |

Al Bundy from Married... with Children is very bitter towards feminism and political correctness, which he blames for everything from his favorite TV shows being cancelled to his not getting any respect from his family to the generally sorry state of his life. He also has a visceral hatred of the French. That said, Al also has several black friends over the course of the series, who share many of his views and tastes, and join him in his political protests. He did vote for Obama in 2008 to get a $1,000 tax cut. | |

After Virgil's Reasonable Authority Figure father gives him a "The Reason You Suck" Speech highlighting that he's letting his hangups drive his son away, he becomes a Former Bigot more accepting of people and things unfamiliar to him. | |

In Final Crisis, Grant Morrison introduced an Alternate Universe where Superman is black which has popped up in his DC work since. The Lex Luthor of that universe is still white, though. Whenever they clash (as seen in v2 issue #9 of Action Comics), Lex has to point out that he doesn't hate Superman because he's racist, he hates Superman for all the other reasons Lex hates Superman. Of course, Superman's an alien, so Lex's hatred of him can be interpreted as xenophobia no matter what color Superman is. | |

Brent Norwalk from The Good Place is a stereotypical middle-aged white American male who feels confounded by the changes of the modern world. He frequently makes various casually racist, sexist and classist remarks, believes that people rejecting personal responsibility and expecting handouts is a major problem in society while being completely blind to the fact that he got handouts his whole life (he was born into a rich family and inherited the multi-million dollar family business), and generally can't take a hint about learning humility until getting pushed to the absolute breaking point. It's quite fitting that a good Ironic Hell for him would be an eternal sensitivity training and anti-sexual harassment course. | |

Archie Bunker from All in the Family fits this trope to a tee. Carroll O'Connor himself stated, "Archie's dilemma is coping with a world that is changing in front of him. He doesn't know what to do, except to lose his temper, mouth his poisons, look elsewhere to fix the blame for his own discomfort. He isn't a totally evil man. He's shrewd. But he won't get to the root of his problem, because the root of his problem is himself, and he doesn't know it." | |

Little Britain: Marjorie Dawes, a privileged white woman who has it in for an Indian woman she frequently interacts with, acting as if her accent is unintelligible when it really isn't. When said Indian woman won the lottery, Marjorie exploded and claimed that as a British native, she's more deserving of a lottery win than some random foreigner. Maggie the food critic. If she samples something that was made by an ethnic person or homosexual, she will projectile vomit on everyone within vomiting range in an attempt to purge herself of anything non-British. |

In Disco Elysium, Player Character Harry can opt to become this in the fascist political path, through bitter and angry ranting and raving about how foreigners, women, and other miniorities have ruined Revachol for the "proud" white man as a coping mechanism for his messy breakup (much to the chagrin of his Asian Straight Man partner). This, however, causes the detective to start taking morale damage whenever he says anything that pushes him further towards Fascism. Fascism is thus treated almost as a form of Self-Harm, as damaging to the Detective himself as it is to those around him. | |

Late in the film Borat, the title character hitches a ride with some frat-boys. They go on about how minorities technically have an advantage in the US and that women are inferior to men.

Mike Baxter from Last Man Standing. While the show does make it clear that he's not racist or sexist (his daughter even states that while he'd never outright say it, he is a firm feminist and always encouraged his three daughters to be tough and independent), he does believe that modern society favoring more sensitive men is an attack on masculinity, firmly believes that political correctness has gone too far, and uses his "Outdoor Man" vlogs to push his views. | |

One episode of Review with Myles Barlow had the titular character try being racist for a day. He takes it to the absolute extreme, refusing to shop at places with Asian employees, not using an umbrella in the rain because of their Chinese origins and living on a diet of white bread, since it's the only food he could find that's not of ethnic origin. | |

South Park: Eric Cartman frequently invokes this trope: In the episode Ginger Kids, Cartman plays this up to its fullest. First he accuses ginger kids of being some kind of vampire-like plague on humanity, then when he believes he's turned ginger he becomes a ginger supremacist. In Pee Cartman's xenophobia causes him to become a doomsayer as he realises that his favourite water park has more Latinos and black people than he's comfortable with. At one point he imagines being persecuted for his race as part of a new world order. This is a parody of the white genocide conspiracy theory. Again in World War Zimmerman, where Cartman treats black people like a plague, to the point where he attempts to kill Token and get off with a light sentence. Mr. Garrison is almost as prejudiced as Cartman; hating gays (despite being gay himself), Mexicans, Canadians etc. He's gone as far as to propose raping Canadians to death to protect America's values. PC Principal is an inversion. His attempts to appear enlightened and sensitive towards other groups is little more than a mask for his intolerance of other white men who don't toe the line. Who could forget Jason's father Robert White? Not only are he and his family are the only ones who support President Garrison but he's also very pissy about how nobody cares about them. There's also the One-Shot Character, Daniel from "T.M.I.", who's a member of the Tea Party that constantly rants about Obama. |

Blood Meridian has the aptly-named Captain White, leader of The Remnant the Villain Protagonist briefly joins. While everyone under him is motivated by War for Fun and Profit, he's genuinely angry America didn't wipe Mexico off the face of the Earth in the Mexican-American War. He hypocritically states that it's the white man's burden to govern "lesser" races, while simultaneously accusing Mexicans of being godless savages incapable of existing in a civilized society. As vile as he sounds, in this Crapsack World he's one of the few characters shown to have any sort of principles or ideals which is not allowed in this setting, as he suffers a brutal Decapitation Presentation at the hands of the people he sought to subjugate. | |

The Punisher (2017): O'Connor, a member of Curtis Hoyle's PTSD support group, is a Vietnam War veteran and Silver Star recipient that continuously rambles about how minorities and bleeding-heart liberals have made the country a hellhole and people should go to arms and insults all other veterans in the group as "weaklings" for seeking help for their fractured psyches. Turns out that the guy is a Phony Veteran, having enlisted after Vietnam and never having seen combat, let alone anything that merited a Silver Star. He's only in the group to try to create a Right-Wing Militia Fanatic group (or something similar) and drives the borderline-nutcase vet Lewis Wilson completely over the edge with his hatred, turning him into a domestic terrorist that begins his killing spree by stabbing O'Connor in the throat. | |
