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/

>>48
Are you >>33,36,42,46?  If yes, are you also >>1-turd (I doubt it since >>1-turd seems to be either a troll or a misguided piece of shit that doesn't understand humour)?

yeah I'm sure there is, and it wouldn't have as much bagage, but the concept is still relevant.
Okay, maybe it's me who has baggage; I've seen/read far too many examples of dismissing someone's logical arguments and points of view because they come from a ,,privileged source'' (okay I've definitely been reading too much geekfeminism wiki bullshit).  Telling someone that their life is easier than a certain category of people and implying that that causes incapacity in one's forming of a valid argument is just another form of ad hominem.  If you think you have a logical point to make, make it, don't just blurt out ,,check your privilege'' in the hope they'll suddenly become enlightened and go away.

Basically, it is all in this: It is useful as an individual to simply be aware of how the world works. The first step in facing something is to simply know and understand what you are facing.
So it's just about realizing that this world is shit and we all get oppressed in some way or another, some more and some less?  Hrmpf.  I suppose it might have just been me having a hang-up on the word ,,privilege'' itself.
