If this is what you're hearing, you aren't listening very well.
What I'm hearing is that starting a thread about white privilege means I don't want to talk about it.
Expressing my opinion about the extent of white privilege is the same as denying its existence. It also means I don't care about racism.
And that additional information relating to a topic clouds and confuses that topic.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
