43. Privilege works exactly as I described

There are always intersections and hierarchical structures within privilege. People other than White Protestant Well off Straight men have borne a heavier load, but there are privileges that those other groups have. I am an educated Latino man from a middle class family. I can tell you right now that though I have faced discrimination and bigotry, that I have had advantages over a great deal of women and many men, including poor White, Muslim, or gay men because I was born with resources, a christian, straight, and a man. There are groups of people that have it way worse than I do, just because of who they are and how that has affected what they can do.

Also, I was not disagreeing with the post in general. I was pointing out that White Supremacy was not a bug in the American system, it is the foundation.
