I ll start : I have been following a pretty known tech/Linux journalist, and always found he is a fun dude to listen to, with interesting tech takes

The fact that he is also very openly "american conservative" (aka, religious & weapon nut, anti abortion, etc) annoys me, but i keep those things separate. And he does keep it separate too (politics channel vs tech channel), which is a great decision.

outweighs the white privilege card

What benefit outweighs never having to think about race or be impacted by it?

Strange how you're getting downvoted and mocked, but nobody seems to have an answer. I too am rather curious where in the actual fuck being considered native-American outweighs white privilege! On a reservation?

(I'm not sure if I have to clarify, as this isn't Reddit, but here goes: I do NOT agree with the current state of race relations and abhor the fact that "being white" is considered the best.)

It's cool if you don't have an answer. I'll just remain curious.
