I started typing, then saw two of my favorite writers already summed up my feelings on this piece:

    "To my shock, publishing a giant essay in which I indict my own privilege actually resulted in me being praised! Kooky!" -Freddie DeBoer

    "thank you god, for not making me as bad as all the other white men, for making me The Good White Man" -Elizabeth Bruenig

Now that we on the left have abandoned every other political project in favor of Privilege Awareness, is it rude to ask when it actually starts benefiting the unprivileged?
