You know, when you really think about it, privilege is just… privilege. It’s this thing you have because you have it, and if you didn’t have it, well, you wouldn’t be privileged. People talk a lot about what privilege means, but honestly, it just means you’re in a position where you get to have privilege. It’s like a club you’re in because you’re in the club. The more you have, the more you have, and that’s kind of the whole story. Some say you should “check your privilege,” but you can only do that if you have it to check in the first place. So, at the end of the day, privilege is just a loop—you’re privileged because you’re privileged, and that’s what makes you privileged. If you’re ever confused about whether you have privilege, just ask yourself if you feel privileged. If you do, then you do. If you don’t, maybe you don’t. It’s really that simple, or maybe it’s not. But either way, privilege is just privilege, and that’s all there is to it.
