If that’s what that means I’ll trade my white privilege for her economic privilege any day
Oh shut up, you wouldn’t trade ish.
The ultimate privilege in America is economic. Jeong may have to face certain mean words or actions I won’t but her life overall is much more privileged due to her status.
So a class argument.... your initial error is thinking your life would be exactly the same but with more money. I hope you can get more perspective and figure out why there more to life than money.
I didn’t say my life would be the same- I said her life is more privileged because of her status. There is more to life than money. But life is way easier if you have money. That’s just fact.
Ummm you said you would trade it without thinking about the drawbacks. I don’t have the time for this right now.
Do you think an Asian woman of high social status is the same as a white man of high social status? That being of high social status means you are invulnerable to racism? Or that racism against an Asian woman of high social status doesn't count? What's the argument here?
I'm trying to figure out if you think anti-Asian racism is a problem or not. I think that's a reasonable question.
