When marginalized people make jokes about themselves and their communities they're hilarious. When privileged people make jokes about marginalized people it's not funny at all. Privileged people only have a handful of jokes about marginalized people and they all suck.

No. That's what we call a metaphor.

ONCE AGAIN, treating statements by marginalized people about privileged people as the exact same as statements by privileged people about marginalized people is 1 of the ways privileged people continue to accrue & secure privilege. It's not equal the privileged have an advantage.

In a truly equitable society such arguments would be being made in better faith. But we don't live in that reality. We live in a reality where people are being oppressed because of their skin, their sexuality, their gender, their sex, their bank balance, etc so this is bad faith.

And because of this them saying we suck is different than us saying they suck. It just is.

Sure. If you steal a hundred dollars from Jenner, and then I say that's not fair, and go to give Jenner back a hundred dollars.... and then you come around and say look if you care about fairness you'll give us both a hundred dollars, that's not stupid its totally right.

The logical end is equality. Because you have an extra hundred dollars you stole. and Jenner is out a hundred bucks. Even by giving him the hundred that doesn't fix it, but what can you do? We all know actually fixing it won't work with all the whiny man-babies around.

Give him back the thing you took from him, waaah waah waah see? That's how that works. And white dudes wonder why people think they suck. You know why, Andy? Its you. People like you go around and give white dudes a bad name.
