THERE IS NONE. You really need to think about this more before you come with your crap. It isn't a strawman argument. The fact that you think it is a privilege to destroy your own family dynamic is really sick, for lack of a better word. You cannot conflate individualistic behaviors placed on communal people under a weaponized context with said communal people partaking in a privilege when they do it.

Privilege moreso than anything is about empowerment. A black man cannot empower himself by leaving his family, because he cannot empower the next generation and so on. Making privilege about "I can do this and you can't" and leaving it there is dangerous thinking.

And I didn't make the argument of black men being subhuman...I said BLACK PEOPLE are not human so you can take that somewhere else.
