What privilege, you ask? Well, being white, of course! I really wish this was some kind of sick joke. Remember how there was the big push to get w****s to pay r********ns to b****s for s***ery a few years ago? It never got off the ground. I seriously doubt if this will either but it is a
little different:
http://www.wesplain.com/privilege/white-people-its-time-to-pay-for-privilege-the-e******y-tax/No longer referred to as 'r********ns', it's now known as the 'e******y tax'.
Apparently, your 'privilege' is inherent in your skin color and in order to make us all more 'equal' (wh**ever that means), you, as a member of the caucasian race, will be forced to pay 5% more than someone of another skin color. By the way, this is not 'r****m'. R****m only comes from white people. As this is designed to inherently benefit those of the darker complexion, we can assume that it was penned by a non-white and is therefore not r****t. This is purely an attempt to make amends for your 'privilege'. You see, many, many years ago, a bunch of white people (with a few b****s thrown in that we won't mention) were so evil and r****t that they made long voyages to Africa and stole people, then sold them into s***ery in America. Those who bought these s***es were related to some of us, though it was way before any of us were born and there's no way of knowing which of us have these ancestors. Because of this lack of specific information, and just to be sure they all get to pay, it has been determined that all people of the caucasian race living today should make this payment, regardless of heritage. It's no use claiming your grandparents came over after World War 2 and never took part in this, you're white, you pay. Period.
So, where's all this coming from? Well, there's a fair sized clue in the last paragraph:
"With the
republicans in power and the
rise of the alt-right, this new tax initiative is sure to
enrage the privileged. But
we must not back down. We must continue to voice our opinion, especially in this
r****t, misogynistic environment post-Trump."
Now, who uses language like that? Who is it that describes President Trump as a r****t misogynist? Who stands to gain most by driving this politically-motivated wedge between two halves of the country? By separating non-w****s and even white women from white men. Who is it that would love nothing better than to see all of us at each others throats over a petty, baseless squabble d**gged up from the depths of idiocy?
I smell the rotten putridity of Barack Hussein Obama. Why? Ask his mentor, Professor Saul Alinsky.
Well, Mr. Obama. Here's my answer:
I do not now, nor have I ever, owned a s***e. I do know now, nor have I ever met, a s***e-owner. I have never been a s***e and I know no-one who has. In view of these facts (stubborn things, facts), I respectfully refuse to aquiesce to your offer to pay your cronies even more of my hard-earned money in acceptance of my 'privileged' status. I do not consider myself to be more 'privileged' in any way than my friends and neighbors, some of whom happen to be of different races to me and are as dumbfounded by this proposal as I am, frankly. Now take your proposal and stick it where the sun doesn't shine. Then go back to Kenya, where you belong.
