I hate myself for even trying to do their privilege quiz. Just pissed me off more. Apparently being educated makes you privileged. Even if you paid for it yourself and studied.
I can’t grasp the idea that someone else is entitled to take what you have simply because they feel it should belong to them. That’s the last stage of complete derangement for anyone living in a capitalist economic society.

Because you only got that stuff in the first place because you were born with White privilege and didn't possibly earn it through hard work.

Being born “privileged” is nothing more than just being fortunate but just because someone is a beneficiary of another’s good fortune doesn’t mean they should be a target to be dismantled by someone who is less fortunate. The animosity and hate generated by those who are by circumstance deprived of “privilege” is completely misplaced in this instance. Their misfortune isn’t a license to promote financial parity at the expense of others. It’s thievery at any level.

I was being sarcastic. I agree with you. Most of us have worked hard for what we have. Everyone doesn't work equally hard and those who are lazy or don't take risks in life to better themselves don't deserve the same rewards as those who did. And shit half of what I do in life is to make sure that my child has a great life too. Sure that's privilege but that's privilege earned through a parents hard work. That shouldn't be stripped because some people aren't fortunate enough to have parents that will do that for their kids.

What people need to realize is, being privileged isn't a race thing. It's normally a money thing. But, regardless, no one should have to "feel guilty" or "give up their money just because they are viewed as privileged. And, the ones perpetuating this dumbass idea (liberal politicians) are some of the most privileged people in this country.

The whole concept is idiotic. They say they're wealthy? Fine, they can give away all they have. But of course that's not enough.

My question is when and how the brainwashing of our kids is going to stop. Because that's at the root of all this.

That's the funny thing, everyone that says this stuff doesn't appear to want to redistribute their own wealth. Bernie has millions, you think he is willing to give that to all those under privileged who have zero in their savings account? Of course not. Don't lecture me about privilege.

Sucking penis isn't gay if the other person identifies as a female. lol

Seriously people like what they like. To call that homophobic is hate speech as far as I can tell
They need to hold one of those conventions in every city in America and once it starts, lock the door and throw away the key.

These people are lunatics. Their main objective is to make men feel like shit if they don’t like dicks other than their own.

It’s dangerous to lend these types of causes any credibility at all, and There hasn’t been enough pushback against this movement.

Dick=boy/man
Vagina=girl/woman

There is no grey area or wiggle room. These people are legit crazy. They use to put people like this in facilities with padded walls. Now politicians and celebrities put them in the limelight.

If you aren’t like them, you immediately hate them and are bigoted. This is the crux of the left. If you don’t agree we will just shout you down until you agree. And if you never agree we will sick whatever outrage mob we can work up to cancel your ass. It’s fucking insane.

For the record, so there's no confusion and in case not everyone is aware, Titania McGrath is not a real person. It's a parody Twitter account to make fun of how crazy the woke left is.

No wonder that tweet isn’t being ratio’d straight to hell.

the world has always been full of crazies

they just have a voice these days
Yep, twitter/facebook/etc has let these small but loud groups get over-representation and the politicians like Warren who cater to them are surprised when the general public don't agree with them
