The only legitimate use of privilege is to help bring about the kind of world where you would not have had it to begin with.
absolutely @s_guilbeault is correct. #Albertans, #Canadians are among the worlds richest people, and we have close to greatest #CO2 emissions per capita. If we refuse to reduce emissions, how can we ask poor developing world citizens and countries to reduce? #Privilege.

The audacity of #privilege knows no bounds. This week, #Trump's least intellectually gifted son appeared on a religious #zealot's podcast and compared his father's legal issues to the systemic #racism and legal injustices faced by Black people for centuries.

#Greenblatt called #Muskâs threat of a #lawsuit â#frivolousâ & said Muskâs behavior was #reckless & #dangerous, coming 2 weeks ahead of the #Jewish High Holidays.
â©The Forward, a daily Jewish publication, has since recently started a running list of Muskâs âdisturbing comments.â

#ElonMuskâs threat to #sue the #ADL extends platformâs war of words
Since buying #Twitter last year, Elon #Musk has developed a seeming obsession w/the Anti-Defamation League.
â©Over the past several days, the owner of #X âŠhas posted at least 25 times about the ADL, a #nonprofit #Jewish group that fights #antisemitism.

The Silk Road podcasts sums up white male technolibertarian progression from Forum Shitposter to Final, Criminal, Felonious Murderous form quite nicely.
Highly recommend.

The perception and property rights of the wealthy class blinds them to the rights of the #commons and for the protection of unique and important wild lands. This real estate developer says "I have a right to build on that property," Banks told CBC News in an interview Wednesday. "The province approved it⊠and at the end of the day, that's what's going to happen." #privateproperty #privilege #realestate #PEI #AtlanticCanada

Si vous pensez que ce que vous aimez c'est la liberté, mais que vous n'en n'ont pas, alors ce que vous aimez vraiment ce sont vos privilÚges.

Een promotieplek is een enorm #privilege, voor elke plek zijn er vast 10 geschikte gegadigden. Ook zonder formeel clubje blijven #Reuzegommers beloond worden voor hun sociale positie. Of toch die van hun ouders. #Reuzegom #JusticeForSanda #SandaDia #Ugent

In a previous job, had a near catastrophe, barely averted by all hands to the pump, selfless dedication by staff with no expectation of being paid for their extraordinary efforts.
Spoke with my line manager afterwards, said "We barely managed, we can't risk that again". She said, "I understand, but that's all management will hear - We Managed"
#Privilege
@skua yes, exactly. So much to unpack in that âwe will manageâ, as you have done here brilliantly. Both the âweâ and the âmanageâ. Such an unguarded display of extreme #Privilege.
"One-percenters knew that the MDMA and the Veuve, the weekends in the George V, the time to turn stories of social mobility into election campaigns, the companies valuing profit over lives, the Dubai hotels built by indentured Bangladeshisâthey knew that all of it cost more than what they read on their credit-card statements."

The #FultonCounty #jail is under investigation by⊠the #DOJ, for allegations of âunsafe, unsanitary living conditions,â the use of âexcessive force & violence,â & a failure to provide adequate health services to detainees.
MacDougald wrote in a separate motion that âClark should not be forced to enter & stay in that jail for any reason.â
