(Anonymous) 2013-10-10 12:13 am (UTC)(link)I came across a post where someone posted a pic of a homeless white man sleeping on a park bench with the sarcastic tag line of, "At least I have my white privilege!" and some reblogged it with the completely serious comment of, "You know at least he's being treated better than homeless POCS because he's white."
So, which class you are in doesn't matter.
A homeless man will be seen as having more privilege than a POC millionaire because that homeless man is white at least according to tumblr. (I don't know how they are so blind to the fact that ultimate power color is not white but green. You have money, you have privilege over all who don't. It doesn't matter what color you skin is.)

(Anonymous) 2013-10-10 02:49 am (UTC)(link)"I'M A MINORITY AND I DON'T EXIST TO EDUCATE [INSERT PRIVILEGED GROUP HERE]. THEY SHOULD ALREADY KNOW THEIR PRIVILEGES! IT'S COMMON SENSE!"
Uh....no. How the hell are people supposed to know they're doing something wrong if you don't tell them? People can't be educated on things they don't know exist. Just yelling at them and calling them "privileged scum" isn't going to get the point across. :/

(Anonymous) 2013-10-10 09:09 am (UTC)(link)Listen, I'll use every (reasonable) pronoun you want, but unless you present in a way that's easily recognisable, you can't expect everyone to magically guess your gender identity.

(Anonymous) 2013-10-10 05:21 am (UTC)(link)that reminds me of a post i saw on a feminism blog, where a girl was complaining that her father was sexist because he didn't support her majoring in gender studies.
gee i wonder why a parent would be wary of spending $40,000+ to send their daughter to university course so that she can end up with a mostly useless degree!

(Anonymous) 2013-10-10 01:35 am (UTC)(link)I could never understand how people could be so damn sensitive. Sometimes people do make mistakes they don't mean to do. Not everyone in the world is out to get you.

(Anonymous) 2013-10-10 02:32 am (UTC)(link)Then again these people insulting her may have been cis themselves; that sort of thing never stops tumblr sjws.

(Anonymous) 2013-10-10 02:58 am (UTC)(link)Nevermind the fact that, in both instances, he was playing a white man in those movies. Nevermind the fact that the Chinese outfit in Sherlock Holmes was a slapped-together disguise. Nevermind the fact that his character in Tropic Thunder was constantly being told how offensive he was for dressing like a black man. Nope, tumblr didn't care about context.
I mean....both those instances are kind of problematic. But if you're going to single out Hollywood for being racist, there are much MUCH better things (and actors) to single out. RDJ playing a white man in diguise isn't one of those things.

(Anonymous) 2013-10-10 09:14 am (UTC)(link)Don't even get me started on the tumblr assholes who insist on calling all black people "African American" even if they don't come from Africa or America. Then they kick up a stink if a black person tells them to stop calling them African-American. smh.
