[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For all the progressive bleating about sensitivity to privilege and whatnot, I am always surprised at how obsessed my wealthy progressive friends are with no gift parties. They obviously didn’t grow up poor or they’d know that birthday parties are the only time some of us got gifts. It’s virtue signaling. Unless literally everyone in your friend group has lots of money, you’re making the less wealthy families feel embarrassed that they want to their their kids traditional parties and receive gifts. Shows kids who the haves and have nots are. [/quote]

Unrelated, but where are you from?   Curious re "whatnot" usage (a fav. term of a sibling not in this area).[/quote]

Don’t you know it’s racist and xenophobic to ask people where they are “really” from? Way to other someone.[/quote]

What are you talking about?   Sibling referenced lives in Erie PA.

Not sure what "othering" has to do with this, but you, pp, don't hurt yourself patting your back for such a call-out good deed!!!  weirdo.[/quote]
