This is a thing at my work now.

From an email earlier today (keywords redacted):
"A few entities . . . have allied to organize and sponsor a forum for the community to discuss the rights of threatened populations, such as the undocumented, religious minorities, LGBTQ, and people of color, in the changing political atmosphere in the U.S. We have invited local attorneys to speak on this topic tomorrow night."

How do I say I feel threatened by their threatened populations?

Is switching jobs a possibility?!?! Your workplace sounds like a college campus.

Here is how it works. If you are in the majority, you can set the law, even if it is unfair to others. If you are in a minority, you have "rights" which set the bar for how much the majority can oppress you. Human rights protect the minority from the oppression of the majority. These minority groups are concerned about oppression under the current political trends, so they are preparing to protect themselves through appeals to their rights.

This is all natural and normal.

If you take the position that they have no rights, you are a person who will be constrained by the rights of the oppressed.

File a hostile work environment complaint on the grounds that white, steaight men are being tacitly singled out as the threatener.
