EXORCISING THE PIMPLEFACED SHITLORDS

This board is fucking infested with mysoginist, racist, ableist  neckbeards. You middle-class white male idiots (the idiot property is independent of the other properties, before you get your balls in a twist.)

I'm a middle-class able-bodied white male too, but that doesn't mean I can't look around me and plainly see how my life is easier than racialized people, females, those of a lower economic status, or disabled people.

Holy FUCK you are some sheltered morons, who have so much privilege to nutrition and education, but APPARENTLY YOU HAVEN'T USED ANY OF THAT PRIVILEGE, BECAUSE YOUR CRITICAL-THINKING ABILITIES ARE FUCKING ATROPHIED.

Why aren't we discussing programming, god damnit. Go back to /r9k/

Again, you are bringing a persecution complex into this.
Would you like me to make a statistical study over what percentage of people will interpret ,,privilege'' as blaming them personally?  I bet it's going to be most of them.

Privilege is an abstraction that describes patterns in society. That is all.
Why is it useful?  I've pointed out why I think it's a harmful abstraction, please point out why you think it's a good (therefore useful) abstraction.  I fail to see how studying privilege (as opposed to actual discrimination) is useful.

I'm sorry that you are afraid of other people being able to analyze society.
No, I'm afraid more and more people will misinterpret privilege and wage a war on the ,,privileged'' to ,,even things out''.  Idiotic things like restrictions on freedom of expression, so-called ,,affirmative action'', and eventually discrimination against the perceived ,,privileged'' are what I fear.  I know human stupidity has no boundaries, and this is why I fear.
