Everyday you are labeled with this pejorative, "Privileged." Many of you don't really know what it means. Some of you use it when you talk about White People in a self deprecating manner. As though you "understand" the plight of the less fortunate. "Privileged," is a derogatory term, an insult. "Privileged," like "Racist," is one of these terms that means everything and nothing. Its a term with a fluid definition depending on the moment. Don't like Rap Music? Especially LOUD Rap Music, booming from the car next to you at the red light. If you're White, You're a Racist. You speak up against the lyrics in a Rap Song that denigrate women or glamorize violence, you're labeled "Privileged." And the funny part is, most of us don't take offense because the opinion of the person using this jargon is unimportant to us. But something has changed. Todays young people, who have been taught to be sensitive to other peoples opinions have no opinions themselves. Big Media Peer Group Pressure has them believing they are Privileged. Sad. When someone labels me as a Racist or Privileged I ask them to define their meaning. Please tell me why you think that? Then I ask them if they like to be insulted? Then I tell them, "I'm Insulted." The use of the term in regards to White people is Racist.
