Guess I might as well leave DU again

12. "Twitter only posts feel excusive"? WTF? I don't have a twitter account. It does not prevent

me from being able to see the threads for twitter posts. I don't like twitter only posts, but "exclusive"? As if you are being excluded? Really?

As for the rest of it, it sounds like you are looking for people to agree with you, or to educate you in things that are not their responsibility to educate you in.

I am white. I don't think it is the job of others to tell me what to do about my white privilege. I am a woman. When men come into conversations about sexism and demand that women educate them, and make the conversation about the relationship of men to sexism, I have no patience for that whatsoever. I imagine it is the same when white people come into conversations about white privilege and demand that black people instruct us in what it means and how to solve it.

Also, "supposedly if the whites will do something, it will help." Seriously? You live in the world. Do you really need black people to tell you what white people, or each of us white people as individuals, could do to help? All you are able to do is say, "Yes, we are privileged, we suck?" Seriously? As a "problem solver," this is all you have been able to come up with? Perhaps you are not being honest with yourself.

As for religion, those conversations have never been anything but contentious and when someone approaches it with the idea that others "need to listen to reason," that will instantly shut down any conversation. Your "reason", no matter where you stand on religion, is another persons delusion.

I imagine you will see this post as simply more of what you are complaining about, because I don't agree with you. I guess that makes me a bunch of trolls.
