    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?!

      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.

        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?
