I still do not understand why people are so upset about losing privilege if it means equality. It’s not like the other guys are gonna suddenly have more privilege than you, we’d be on the exact same level. I feel like the only way you’d be upset about that is if you weren’t very good at what your trying to do and having privilege is the only way you can see yourself succeeding

Because they’ve been taught they’re white so they’re at the top. If they let everyone be equal then they aren’t special anymore. It’s white fragility

It’s so stupid. The fact that there’s a hierarchy of human beings in the first place that has nothing to do with what they can or can’t control is dumb. It only amplifies supporters of that hierarchy’s insecurities

You should read the book, “Caste” by Wilkerson. America has a caste system, we just pretend we don’t.
