You are clearly missing a vital part of what male privilege or white privilege is. That’s ok but a bit surprising given how long it has been discussed and problematized both IRL and online.

I’m not sure what you’re talking about?
What is not a privilege and how does it relate to a minimum level of respect?
- Comment on How possibly? 1 day ago:
Semantics are important and I do understand what they are saying. Did you read my comment?
it implies those people have something they shouldn’t have
This for example. Male privilege is something men shouldn’t have since it’s based entirely on gender. So the privilege teeds to be abolished for equality to happen.
And as I said, of course men gets defensive when its problematized and put in the spotlight, you may support equality but who wants to lose their advantages? 🤷
Ironically enough your comment also focused on the semantics instead of the issue at hand.. :)

Yes, and that’s the point with male privilege? It’s an advantage without any other reason than the holder being male.
Raising women to hold the same privilege is the same as removing it for men, if everyone has it it’s not a privilege.
I think this is why the equality in society moves forward too slowly, not necessarily because men don’t want women to have equal rights and opportunities, but as you said the privileged are defensive because they don’t want to lose their privileges.

What, it works for me? Put on an 8 hour video while doing chores and had ads every 5 minutes. Filled with rage I installed pihole and no more ads.

And no one has made such claims.
I’m afraid that you are completely missing the point. I don’t understand if it is with intent or not but it is not helpful for the debate. - Comment on How to reduce the crime rate to 0 2 months ago:
The issue is normalisation of hate against politicians, which is the end becomes nazi assassinations.
It starts with people, often online, creating a climate where personal attacks are okay, then it step by step increases in intensity to become calls for violence and so on.You are intentionally sabotaging public discourse
Absolutely not. There’s a difference between calling politicians “fucking dumb” and criticizing policy. If you can’t understand that I can’t help you.

Then you say that i can also be on social wellfare if I want. Yes, but thats not what I want or anyone living her wants.
I would do the same.
Pick one.
I love the trope “I want to work and not be on welfare. But the (insert vulnerable group) don’t, they just want to relax on tax payers money!”
