You just stockpiled a bunch of food/supplies

I restocked my privilege before the hysteria set in.

Aka you either prepared or you put yourself in a position to be ok in situaitons like these because you worked hard and found a good job. Yeah, privileged.

Kind of tough to lecture about privilege when we all have some third world shithole to thank for this in the first place.

Well... 3/4 here. I'm not stocking food and supplies though.

I wish JBE would have banned your threads until April 14th

I'm 1 for 4 so I'm basically black now.

My privilege is a check. And I'm about to cash it.

I'm 4/4 except I can afford to not work for a year (probably longer).

No backstory needed here. Have a month of savings, and you're privileged.

It’s called American privilege, be happy you live in this country.

I just plan on riding out this whole COVID thing using my uncashed white privilege checks.
I've got at least a couple month's pay worth that I haven't used yet.

My privilege is intact. While I wish everyone had the same, I'm not about to apologize for it.

My biggest worry is that my spring break trip to Turks and Caicos will be cancelled. I acknowledge my privilege.

I'm 4 for 4 and planning to buy my first firearm on my way home from work today. Picking up a pump action shotgun.

May as well add this one to the list and I'm 5/5.

What will we all do when the under-priviledged are wiped out by this pandemic?
I guess we'll have to resort to punishing micro-inequities.
Or maybe we can make sure the 1% and privileged gets their fair share of the pandemic....
Am I doing it right?
