[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe not CRT but the term “intersectionality” is a buzzword for woke pablum.[/quote]

I’m pretty liberal, but my eyes automatically roll when I hear that word.[/quote]

It’s jargon but it just means [b]everyone has their own experiences with discrimination[/b] and consideration should be given to things that affect marginalized people. It [b]rubs some white people the wrong way because they have never experienced discrimination[/b] and can’t relate. They also probably consider themselves to be good people and can’t separate that from acknowledging the system is set up to benefit them, which is why they can’t relate to the discrimination marginalized people experience.[/quote]

Contradict much?[/quote]

No. White people don’t experience discrimination.[/quote]
Sure they do. A black employer refusing to hire a white applicant is illegal discrimination under American law. An Asian apartment owner refusing to rent to a white person is illegal discrimination under American law. Those things might not happen as often as the reverse, but they're still discrimination.

You woke progressives don't get to change the meaning of words just to suit your ideology. [/quote]

Take your lame strawman arguments and sit TF down.

No, I'm not going to stop posting just because you don't like what I have to say, and can't counter it.

And, do you even know what a strawman argument is? Because what I posted was no such thing. [/quote]
