the reality of privilege and oppression is fucking depressing [to the privileged]

I wouldn't know but I find it really really unlikely.

It's hard to shrug off the “men are horrible” comments when I spend so much effort trying to convince myself that I'm not horrible

Yeah he sounds real privileged. Stupid Uncle Tom.

One reason I was drawn to intersectional feminism is that it seemed to have a good set of ground rules for how to treat everyone decently. But now I feel like I'm excluded from protection

Men aren't people to feminists. Men are subhuman filth. Enjoy your "privilege".

It hurts a whole lot to try and really feel someone's pain, and then realize they don't even slightly give a shit about me

Yeah it's all about you. It doesn't matter that they are spreading hate and discrimination against all men. What matters is they piss on you personally.

And that's why I can no longer have anything to do with this movement [feminism]

Find a better reason.

He's depressed, which has nothing to do with feminism. His depression leads to a crisis of faith (because feminism is essentially the same as a religion or cult; you stick with extreme views because of the community; depression cuts you off from the community which leads to the crisis of faith). His friends are being assholes to him, because he's having a crisis of faith, which they can't cope with in a healthy manner because their extreme cult-like behaviour excludes doubters. This pushes him out of fellowship even more. So he's losing his religion. No doubt his friends will react to this latest expression of doubt with more of the same exclusion, shaming and guilt. etc etc.
