The Fall of Old White Men?

The Fall of Old White Men?

Within the last 2-3 years the flames which have always burned away at our society have finally burnt the right fingers.
Yes some of the "victims" are other races and genders. But the rise of the #metoo movement followed blindly by the most powerful nation on the World electing a dinosaur of the "old guard".
Yes, he is part of the #metoo but also a figurehead of how broken the political system under old white men really is.
Through these and other falls netted in the broad reach are ugly and actually Worldwide, the microscope it puts on the future level of "ok" will be enormous.
If the Presidency survives trump it will never be the same. Within the movie industry, attacked by the lack of inclusion combined with it's predatory nature are starting to be addressed.
Next, the Presidency?
It may take a bit but trump's inability to perform what he achieved will make the next guy/girl's qualifications stringently addressed.
We seem constantly to be shown how unsuccessful, unwise and how old white men seem to lack creditability. Not as a whole but the '50's "dad knows best" lie is strongly coming to the surface.
I think things are starting to change and the power and prestige of old white men has begun to fall away.

What do you think?

Is this the start of something good or just a hiccough in the status quo?

Good luck out there
