Oh, I can hazard a guess:
The assurance that the deck would always be stacked in their favor just due to being White, straight and male; the privilege of being “the center of the universe,” valued above and before everyone and everything else on the entire planet; that’s what they believe has been “stolen” from them.
This is the myth of personal exceptionalism that is spoonfed to White American males from infancy:
Never mind that it actually only applies to a tiny fraction of an even tinier percentage of them… that’s the mythos upon which all their unattainable delusions of grandeur are built.
And then when it never comes to fruition, they blame everyone else but the Powers That Be which have kept the status quo just as it is.
But of course, I’m preaching to the choir, here…
