Amen.

I think one of the key issues here is that the people who get mad at "those mean acafen who call everyone else sexist/misogynist/racist" seem to think that being told "hey, your privilege is showing, maybe you should think about that?" is the most vile thing one human being can ever say to another. Okay, that's hyperbole, but I think you get my point. Seriously, most of us who talk about these things recognize that damn near everyone, ourselves and our friends included, has some form of privilege and trips over it sometimes; we're not trying to divide the world into "us cool enlightened people who are never mean to pure virtuous minorities" and "you ignorant bigoted louts."

Unfortunately, there ARE people like that and they're so loud and vocal about it that it makes people automatically flinch and cry oppression when anything remotely political comes up. Well, sometimes. There ARE willfully ignorant jerks who ignore it because they want to keep living in their well-fed white bread world of fake perfection and not think about the fact that people other than them need things.

I'm part of the first example, though. The second group makes me want to smash things. >:[

Yes, there are, and they can be some of the worst bigots around. See: the attitudes of certain so-called radical feminists towards transgendered people, the white privilege endemic to mainstream feminism, the tendency of some anti-racism activists to dismiss women's concerns as beneath their notice, etc.

However, I have seen far more dismissals of all political discussion as falling into this category than I have actual political discussion that falls into this category. (Uh...if that sentence makes any sense.)

This will sound mean, but, the fact you admit that you didn't read the secret properly before you replied to it does hint at the possibility that you might sometimes reply to other things without reading them properly first. Next time you read political things in a fandom community that make you feel "oppressed" you could maybe remember that and spend more time thinking about them first, though, you are always free to not read them at all if you don't want to.
