I'm not pretending anything and you're putting words in my mouth I never said or intentionally misenterpreting my words and I'm done with this bad faith argument of yours.
I'm not Mike Johnson and acknowledging discrimination doesn't make me privileged. You can discriminate all you want it doesn't make it any less discrimination. Nor does it make discrimination against someone even if they might be privileged any less discrimination.
If you really think someone who just happens to have been born those things and gets the worst treatment than someone who, say is, POC and/or LGBTQ, who is better off than someone who is homeless for example you're delusional and extremely discriminative. It largely concerns all of those things, but it's not as bipolar as american identity politics makes it up to be, it's more about class politics and politics essentially and way more subjective and individual than you're making it out to be - which is exactly my point, not a single one of any gender, sexuality, class, anything is a fucking monolith you should discriminate against as one. But you're free to downvote instead of discussing.

Then why are you continuing to argue that it IS bipolar? Why do you insist that white people aren't privileged, even as you acknowledge that there are different levels of privilege and belonging to one privileged class doesn't mean that you belong to them all and thus have ALL the privilege? It's like you're ALMOST getting it but then you refuse to take that last step because that would be admitting that you were wrong.
Fact: being white makes us privileged
Fact: that doesn't mean that we necessarily abuse said privilege and as such, being white doesn't in itself make us bad people
Fact: neither of the above statements of fact are in any way discriminatory and if you STILL don't understand that, there's no doubt left that you're incapable of understanding either through stubbornness or reflexive defensiveness against an imagined accusation that nobody is making.

Learn to read. I'm done. You made your point and I respectfully disagree, you suit yourself and keep pretending treating someone based on their skin color, sexuality or race isn't discrimination isn't discrimination. Either you don't know what the word means or you're so privileged you're blind to the fact.
