    Yep, people here call me privileged too.

    Um, I’m biracial, bisexual, and barely make above minimum wage. But because I disagree with some on here, I’m “privileged.” lmao

      Friend, people say I’m privileged just because I’m shilling for Trump, er, I mean Stein, or Socialist stuff or something. Can you believe that shit?!

        How does that make me “privileged”?

        I’m not white. I’m not straight. I grew up in poverty. I’m not rich. I don’t have a high-paying job. I don’t have college education (yet). So tell me, how am I privileged?!

          I grew up in poverty. I’m not rich. I don’t have a high-paying job.

          And yet somehow you’re debt-free.

          I’m not straight.

          And yet somehow you’re woke-free.

          I can’t connect the dots for you, but geeze.

            And yet somehow you’re debt-free.

            I saved to buy my crappy car. I saved to buy my crappy bike. And I pay for school, one course at a time (which is why I still don’t have a degree.) I took a job as a janitor so that I could work somewhere with tuition reimbursement. Networked my way up to teacher’s aide. Pay is 10 cents more.

            And yet somehow you’re woke-free.

            What does that have to with anything about sexuality or being privileged?!

            You know, just because someone believes differently than you, doesn’t make them privileged.

            I’m a biracial, bisexual, poor dude. Nothing about me is privileged. You make more money than me, I promise. Are you privileged?
