13173229, U really don't see the irony of comparing us to white folks...
Posted by Boogie Stimuli, Wed Jul-12-17 11:52 PM
considering the fact that, privilege discourse was
initiated to address the social system of white supremacy?
Now a white woman diffuses it with alllivesmatter logic,
proclaiming "well we all have privilege, so look at you!"

Now here YOU are, comparing the most targeted group
under white patriarchy to white people, and you don't
see the irony in that. You have successfully been had, sir.




^Read that part again, because I don't think you've
let that sink in just yet. My questions in reply 68
still stand, btw.



I already explained to you why picking through
"Black male privilege" is a silly exercise in reply 161
(and you didn't respond), so I'm not typing it again.
I'll just say that if we're searching for Black male privilege,
we'd have a longer list of Black female privileges,
although, again, I don't like using the term "privilege"
as I find it disrespectful to Dubois since this idea
of us all finding our own advantages was NOT what he
meant when he used the term.

This "privileged can't see their privilege" actually
doesn't apply here, and it's SO not surprising that
you and denny are, once again, on the same side of the argument.
Like I said in reply 106:
It's important to ask ourselves why any Black person would
be siding with denny on any racial matter affecting Black people.
This "all privilege matters" revamp is a victims vs victims
initiative and is highly important for alleged anti-racists who
actually seek to destroy any kind of Black unity against white
patriarchy.
