Kinda like the lib/prog/commie/demokkkrat knock out game? I had the privilege of joining the Navy and serving my (used to be) country. I had the privilege of landing a good job and working my butt off at it for 36 years. I know, different time, different circumstances. But, I don't seem to recall anyone "giving" me anything. I suppose that's just part of the white privilege thing huh?

This take down of Toure is actually worth going through. Go all the way to the bottom; it gets better as it goes along.

Here's a couple of good takeaways from the comments at the end of the article:

Bruce in Oz:

"Can someone explain why you US types use the term "liberal" to describe totalitarian sociopaths?"

Betina:

"Socialism is just the political form of sadism. And people should start using the two interchangeably."

And the quote from Pajama Boy (Ethan Krupp) is eye opening:

“I am a Liberal F..k,” Krupp wrote in one post. “A Liberal F..k is not a Democrat, but rather someone who combines political data and theory, extreme leftist views and sarcasm to win any argument while make the opponents feel terrible about themselves. I won every argument but one.”

Krupp then detailed the only political argument he claimed her (sic) ever lost, a drunken encounter he had with a “conservative gay prick.”

Oh my, Krupp used the term gay in a derogatory manner!

You and I are so elite that we don’t even realize it. I also had the Privilege of serving in the USAF 1972-1976. We I moved back to Alabama after discharge I had a hard time finding a job with a large company to use my high tech skills. Why? Most companies in the south were under strict EEOC manadates. Due to Privilege, I finally accepted a low tech job with the phone company, they gave me 2 years senority credit for my military service. That’s right, my Privilege secured me a job as a Long Distance Directory Assistance Operator. For 2 years I had the Privilege of working rotating shifts and rotating off days. Then due to 5 non-privileged individuals in a row with less seniority than me washing out of pole climbing school, my Privilege kicked in again and I got a Residence Installer job. Three years later I took a commissioned sales job selling business telephone equipment and services. Privilege and not hard work kept me in the top 5 commissioned sales reps nationally. I climbed from there up the ladder to upper middle management and then took an early retirement after 20 years at the age of 42 rather than uproot my family to follow my department’s move to Atlanta. Now at 60 years old I still make big bucks due to Privilege, not hard work and risk taking. I feel so guilty some days.

Here’s a laugh out loud GIF of MSNBC’s infamous Cinco De Mayo gaffe, it’s 2.7 MB so just click on it if you have decent bandwidth. No really, it’s worth it to see what a crapstorm they got themselves into with this one.
