Bro a privilege is something that only a certain group of people has Access to. We in Western modernized countries have the privilege to have access to seemingly unlimited Reinking water from our tap. Is is a privilege, that's Just what it is. I don't really understand why you habe auch a Problem with the specific word.

Dude, you are funny

I don't see what the distinction is. It is a privilege. That's not a bad thing.

curiouscabbage69 t1_jedzv65 wrote on March 31, 2023 at 9:55 AM

It is definitely used in context as a bad thing. White privilege. Male privilege. Where have you been for the last ten years? Lol

Key word there is context bud. Context can usually change what words mean. I am privileged to know that.

Yes, and this was the same context that they were using it in. 🤦🏿‍♂️

Neither of those things you mentioned are bad things either though, and the fact that you think they are is telling. Having privilege isn’t something to feel bad about, it’s just an important thing to recognize.

Yeah, I'm not going to get in a conversation with you about this because I think we are too far apart on our thinking for it to be worthwhile for either of us

There’s nothing wrong with having a privilege.
