My privilege as a straight, white, cisgender, middle class thin male

RE: My privilege as a straight, white, cisgender, middle class thin male
Ok you're just gonna have to feel the way you feel on this

But just to clear things up before I move on, please don't twist my words. At no point did I explicitly say "I have been discriminated against for being white", which I haven't. Nor am I in any denial that I benefit from being male and/or white. In fact I think you have to be living under a rock not to see that.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable."
