does the argument that straight white people are privileged and don't get a say actually divide us rather than further our common goal as a people? i feel like people shut straight white people up with the privilege argument and then those straight white people get defensive and eventually end up in the alt right

So far as pushing anyone to the alt-right in 2019… eh. The alt-right imploded. The press is just keeping the term going to milk the few remaining clicks it can get from it. There’s now debate if it was a thing or if the media lumped three strangers together and sold it as white ISIS. I think we take you if you’ve got views that are racist in 2019. Not a member of some meme from two decades back. 

The way ideas are offered to the public or repackaged by internet pundits that are unqualified is, for certain, counter-productive. Before they heard the term, got it. People who didn’t get it were mostly educated on it by net heads who didn’t really know what they were talking about. That just worked to expand a trench. 
You end up with the equivalent of people who say”I’m eating double the animals to compensate for vegans.”

Let’s say you do not understand privilege because you have seen evidence of it. You hear people talking. The speech is layered with condescending maxims such as’do’ that don’t advise you. When you ask for clarification, the people who were just picking you apart tell you it isn’t their job to educate you. Nobody is ready to engage on the subject of class which makes you feel as though nobody is really interested in solutions. The expression’garbage people’ is being thrown around.
