I'm referring to the text in the image.

The first part (what privilege isn't) is full of references to things with valence while the second part (what privilege is) is neutral thoughts not good or bad. I mean, is there something inherently good or bad about thinking a thought a privileged person would never think?

I don't privilege is thoughts with neutral valence, or is it?
