Are you not commenting on me bringing this up with someone who self-describes as being on the right? — Judaka
Privilege cannot be separated from leftwing identity politics and this much is obvious — Judaka
I would rather just appreciate different peoples talents rather than just talk about difference being inequality in some unjust unfair way. — Asif
But if you are referring to people who are just normally less intelligent then how is that unjust for them? That is what they are. Doesnt mean low intelligence means oppressed or disadvantaged. — Asif
What's evident in the replies to this thread, again, is that the privileged do not understand their privilege. — Banno
...perhaps someone here can actually give a compelling argument for why it is important for people to understand their privilege and why thinking about things in this way is important or useful? — Judaka
It doesn't seem like it is making much of a difference for you, whether you call it a privilege or something else. I feel attractiveness is really in a league of its own though, it's easy to paint a really bleak picture there though for some it's a bit controversial. — Judaka

It's like you think privilege is just this totally neutral, meaningless word. — Judaka
