A group of Karens is known as a privilege.
A privilege of Karens refused to leave the park after being told it was closed.
Seeing how over half of your gross wage goes away in taxes to pay for someone else’s “free” education, healthcare and welfare whilst not enjoying any of those “freebies” yourself.
Breanna (formerly Tim): Oh my gosh! The free healthcare system has been so supportive with my gender reassignment: 2 years’ worth of HRT and psychological consultation, top and bottom surgery and 2 more years of follow up consultation…all for freeee
Joe: *rolls eyes* I was at work while you were doing all of that, eventually got a rotten tooth and had to pay 5k for the implant…I’m so privileged.
Frank: I had to take a payday loan at a 300% APR when my car broke down and needed to fix it to keep going to work while not getting evicted, I’m sooo privileged too.
Five minutes before closing time, a large privilege came in and ordered 17 plates of boneless wings and had the nerve to tell me they were all under-cooked.
Karen by herself is bad enough, but imagine having to deal with a privilege of 4 Karens.
The inherent value someone puts onto you based on superficial features. Often based on race, sex, sexuality, identity, religion, class, and physical ability.
Often times privilege is hard to see when looking at the privileged person. Its only obvious when comparing two people who are very similar other then the superficial features that grant you privilege.
Its worth noting that aspects that often influence privilege can affect things such as getting a job and not be an example of privilege, but rather qualification -ex: physical ability in a job requiring large amounts of movement
Class and privilege are not the same thing. Both can effect each other, with privilege or lack there of affecting your ability to make money, and your class influencing how people see you, but they are not the same.
A person will never be less then their perceived inherent value (privilege), meaning someone without that privilege is seen as inherently lesser.
Ex: "Tod would never do that, he's a christian!"
A made up term used by racist conservatives to accuse African Americans of being privileged because of a racial biases they have towards African Americans and African diaspora
tim: tyrone just got a promotion instead of me, must've been because of that black privilege
*Black Privilege (noun):*
When benefits, rights, and privileges gained from African American struggles, sacrifices, and activism are transferred to and enjoyed by non-Black individuals and groups, often perpetuating systemic inequality.
"Black Privilege should mean equal rights and protections under Civil Rights Act 1866, but ironically refers to the unfair advantage other groups have claimed from laws originally intended to benefit African Americans."
OR alternatively:
"People realized too late that Black Privilege actually meant others benefiting from laws meant to end Black oppression – a twisted systemic inequality."
OR simplest form:
"Black Privilege: when laws meant for African American equality are exploited by others."
