CNN Host: what happens when someone breaks into my house at night, who do I call?

Guest Turd: I hear that loud and clear...nonsense nonsense more nonsense and drivel...thats coming from a place of privilege.


W.O.W.
:howler:

The answer is you don't call anyone. You sit there and you take the rape, beating, robbery, or murder cuz you're white.

I would definitely be getting a gun or two if I had to live in that utter shithole.

I ordered a pizza off Uber eats yesterday. It was a windy, rainy and gloomy night here in Sydney as I watched my ethnic minority “delivery partner” struggle to get off his bicycle as he trudged through the muddy grass to deliver me my food,whilst I waited on the porch in my dressing gown and slippers. It was then I was so thankful for my white privilege.

Uber Eats needs an Uber Eats Select were they bring your food to the door on a platter and kneel as they present it to you.

Look, I've come up with a simple test to determine if you're "woke" or speaking from a position of "privilege".

An Internet speed test.

Woke or Privilege Test.png


As you can tell, clearly I'm not woke enough, my internet is too fast thus I'm speaking from a position of "privilege".

I'm disgusted with myself.

@Bianconero_Aus and @X Æ A-12 how do I live with my privilege? How do I un-privilege myself?
Wow I'm so fucking woke then

I have 38mbs download speed

What I don't get about stuff like this is the obvious tokenism that I being used by big companies and that people, in this case literally, will eat it up.

Isn't this just patronising?
Generally the corporations would bury their head in sand and hope things settle down. Now they have figured that they can make more money if they participate and do the bare minimum to show support.

Wireless or wired?
Wireless but wired is still capped at like 40, Australia's net is horseshit

Depends where you live but most get sub 40mb speeds, some can get 100, rolling out 1000 now but it's only applicable to certain areas and types of connection

This is home internet

Some people just refuse to believe there are troubled or dangerous people in the world.

How long do you think before BIPOC becomes BIPOCAME becomes BIPOCAMELGTBQI becomes BIPOCAMELGTBQILM?
