Hot take, but all of the following are accurate:

  1. White people's freedom of speech > Black activist's feelings.
  2. Male people's freedom of speech > Women activist's feelings.
  3. Straight people's freedom of speech > Gay activist's feelings.

If you disagree, then consider getting rid of the 1st amendment, as all socially conservative speech can be argued to be hate speech.

If this statement is racist, then I'm fine with that title, as those that believe this statement is racist argue everyone is racist.

If racism is bad, but unanimous, then it's like shitting; it stinks, but everyone does it, so there is no shame.

You got your answer.
“So when it comes to addressing political, social and economic issues, I call on my fellow older white males who are not part of a marginalized community to join me in shutting up and stepping aside. Our voices have been heard often enough. It’s time that we actually created the space for a diversity of marginalized voices to be heard rather than keep filling that space with our voices.”

As a white-straight-male I admit i take conservative speech for granted sometimes.

This is a political narrative. I can choose to accept or ignore it. I choose to ignore it. It is impossible to talk about anything without the risk of hurting someone's feelings.  Activists certainly don't give a shit about hurting anyone's feelings.

They never have.  They claim any violence from there side is "justified" while any retaliation is met with one "ism"  or " ist" that they can feed into the situation.

Pretty damn hypocritical seeing as the author, Garry Leech, is taking up a ton of space with his voice.

Calling for diversity should be applauded.

Diversity
  1. the state of being diverse; variety.
    "there was considerable diversity in the style of the reports

  2. the practice or quality of including or involving people from a range of different social and ethnic backgrounds and of different genders, sexual orientations, etc.
    "equality and diversity should be supported for their own sake"

That older white male should lead by example.

Exactly, that article should never have been written, nor read.
