(32,640 posts)It is white male privilege to put forward that their particular privilege is "normal" and not the outlier for most people.
That there are those non-white, non-male citizens in your society who are not treated like you are, and that is wrong, and is discrimination. To put the white male veiwpoint as the measure of "normal" is to dismiss or render suspect that which is not the white male viewpoint, as you are doing on this thread. To tell those who are not white male what is and is not "privilege" or "normal," is not only cluelessness, it is bigoted - clueless bigotry, until of course, one is informed of it. At that point it becomes malicious bigotry.
In the midst of constant self absorption, adding a dollop of self awareness gives one more credibility.
I know you've been banging on with your arrogant lecturing here for quite a while, which is why I try to avoid reading your posts unfortunately, largely as your supporters in the threads jump in to shut down any debate. However the fact that the continued posting of self satisfied, clueless posts indicates that no one has shut down any debate, doesn't it?
How was that?
