I’ve reached a place in life when I can be a lot more bluntly simplistic toward any epithetia pointed my way which pre-supposes my having white and/or male privilege:

And what if I do? What do you personally mean to do about it? Go ahead and try it, whatever that is, and watch what happens. Here’s a clue: it won’t be an apology, an explanation or any coerced offer of compensation; if you walk away at all, as opposed to limping or being carried away, from the ensuing conflict, which you started, watch me still have whatever that alleged privilege was, and watch me still intend to keep it.

Was there anything else you’d care to accuse me of?
