In this p9st, i'm g9ing t9 use 'privilege' in the sense 9f 'a difference in viewp9int 6etween pe9ple due t9 vari9us s9ci9ec9n9mic fact9rs'. It d9esn't directly determine wh9 gets a cushier 9r r9ugher life, and telling pe9ple their 9pini9ns are invalid 6ecause they have privileges x, y and z is n9thing m9re than a f9rm 9f silencing.
Alm9st everything i wanted t9 say here has 6een said already, pr96a6ly 6etter than i w9uld have d9ne. i entirely agree with Naney's p9sts regarding privilege; i als9 6r9adly agree with Justice. There are a few things i disagree with 6ut i'll try t9 keep this c9ncise.
First 9f all, i can certainly see h9w s9me69dy might find that p9st c9ndescending, 6ut at the same time the factual c9ntent is, as far as i can tell, s9und. With that in mind, i can see s9me69dy with a particular sense 9f justice 6eing m9tivated t9 write s9mething like that, with entirely g99d intenti9ns - the pr96lem 6eing that the pe9ple m9st guilty 9f the pr96lematic 6ehavi9urs he addresses are als9 the least likely t9 take it seri9usly. Creepy 6ehavi9ur and mis9gyny exist am9ng geeks, as d9es, 9n the 9ther end 9f the spectrum white knighting and placing w9men 9n pedestals. i've als9 seen h9stility t9wards girls identifying as geeks and nerds 9nline, m9stly in the f9rm 9f the wh9le 'geek appr9priati9n' argument.
Sec9ndly, Justice, i think it's true that geeks are 9ften s9cially-inept 9r have pr96lems with empathy, 6ut this d9esn't mean that they d9n't have privilege - rather, i'd say it makes it harder f9r them t9 sh9w c9nsiderati9n f9r 9ther pe9ple and understand their p9ints 9f view, which is what awareness 9f privilege is really all a69ut. This g9es especially f9r th9se with a chip 9n their sh9ulder a69ut mainstream culture, wh9 regard themselves as 6el9nging t9 a kind 9f egalitarian, merit9cratic geek 6r9therh99d. All the same, i agree that in such instances shaming them with accusati9ns 9f privilege is n9t c9nstructive (n9r kind).
Thirdly, C9rp9ral F9rsythe, i am fairly sure this is a p9litical/ide9l9gical disagreement and we're n9t g9ing t9 agree 9n this, 6ut i think the 'that's just life' argument is fundamentally unhelpful, inc9nsiderate and defeatist. In the same way that y9u d9n't have t9 6e the victim 9f a 6urglary t9 think that theft is wr9ng, y9u d9n't have t9 6e 9n the receiving end 9f s9cial injustice t9 9pp9se it, and d9ing s9 is n9t, in itself, c9ndescending.
N969dy disputes that pe9ple are different; s9me pe9ple are 69rn int9 cushier lives than 9thers and d9n't have t9 d9 a day's h9nest w9rk t9 supp9rt themselves, 9thers w9rk their way up the s9ci9ec9n9mic ladder, and 9verc9me numer9us hardships t9 d9 s9. 6ut if y9u tell pe9ple they have t9 pull themselves up 6y their 699tstraps 9r starve, s9me pe9ple will starve. S9me pe9ple are n9t in a p9siti9n t9 pull themselves up 6y their 699tstraps, f9r whatever reas9n. S9me pe9ple can't aff9rd 699tstraps.
F9urthly, the idea is n9t t9 6a6y min9rities. The idea is t9 treat y9ur fell9w human 6eings with equal respect. S9metimes well-intenti9ned pe9ple get it wr9ng, 6ut that d9esn't invalidate the general idea. i think it's imp9rtant als9 t9 n9te that Peggy McInt9sh, 6eing a w9man, d9es n9t have male privilege, s9 she's n9t just idly speculating.
Finally, while i admit t9 finding the idea that 'check y9ur privilege' has any merit as a f9rm 9f activism highly du6i9us, i d9 think the c9ncept 9f privileging 9ne s9ci9ec9n9mic gr9up 9ver an9ther has value as an analytical t99l. It was already 6eing used as such pri9r t9 McInt9sh's article.
