Maybe for the thread, but not for you since you questioned it. I was responding to your 'What' that you directed at what I said.

It's fairly clear you're going for the gold in mental gymnastics. But please, tell me more about me. Because this Chick-fil-A issue is clearly about you, and me, and my privilege versus your privilege. In fact, I believe the COO actually said that "agzg rules because WHITE LADY! sigmadiva drools because BLACK LADY!"

Do you see how dumb it is to attempt to rank oppressions? Inequalities do not have to be the exact same in order for them to coexist and for all of them to be legitimate.
Exactly. I hope you saw the facetiousness in my comment.

LOL. Nah, you have to be more obvious with the facetiousness when discussing power and oppression.
