Here’s something you and the guys can do on the job site when you have a free moment. Christopher F. Rufo, a senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute, unearthed the ultimate white privilege self-assessment test to determine “How Privileged Are You?”
Rufo was in the process of researching Disney and how the corporation has workers take the white privilege self-assessment challenge when he got his hands on the YWCA’s privilege document used by the Mickey Mouse company as part of its “21-Day Racial Equity and Social Justice Challenge” program.
There are 97 statements on the list that are used to determine your level of privilege. It’s unclear how the scale works here. The only guidance we get here from the YWCA is that “more checks = more privilege.”
And how exactly are we supposed to use this information? If you have 50 checks does that mean you’re ultra-privileged? 90 or more and you’re elite privileged? Come on YWCA, help us out here.
Some of the more interesting statements on the privilege checklist include:
• I graduated high school.
• I’ve never had a roommate.
• I have frequent flier miles.
• My parents are still married.
• I buy new clothes at least once a month.
• I have traveled internationally.
Still interested in working for Disney, the company that’s in bed with Colin Kaepernick? As part of its 21-Day Equity and Social Justice Challenge,” workers are also encouraged to “decolonize” their bookshelves and to avoid scrolling “past articles written by people of color.”
Is your head spinning yet?
Employees are also encouraged to “Reflect on the diversity of your personal and professional networks and how racial dimensions of your identity give (or do not give) you access and advantage.”
Here’s an idea: be productive, don’t be an asshole and go home and do the same for your family. There’s a challenge that completely takes the 97-statement woke challenge and throws it out the window and makes the world a better place.
Meanwhile, the woke and inclusion division is out here creating 800-pages of nonsense that leaves workers paralyzed. Give me the simple three-step approach.
Disney recommends that employees read a how-to guide called “75 Things White People Can Do for Racial Justice.” The article tells readers to “defund the police,” “participate in reparations,” “decolonize your bookshelf,” and “find and join a local ‘white space.’” pic.twitter.com/RJLCTK5ypv

If all I check was I am white they would still declare I am white privileged.
This list is good for toilet paper if Costco runs out again
This white privileged shit is wearing thin
Just curious, you can’t ask someone their age, but you can ask this sh*t. Is this even legal?
Privilege and responsibility are interchangeable.
I, in fact, have been told on multiple occasions, that I am “pretty fly for a white guy.” How is this not on the list?
This is like “Never have I ever”, but without drinking. And sad. And pretentious.
So I guess the ‘ol “Some of my best friends are black” excuse is no longer sufficient?
So it’s a privilege if both of my parents are heterosexual? One could say that statement is phobic. Shouldn’t the alphabet mafia be whining on twitter over that?
Deep Thoughts…. What if I am white, a male, went to summer camp…. but I have a lot of student debt and have been raped multiple times?
What the holy fuck is that list? Good gravy. How is individualism a white thing? How is competitiveness a white thing? How is comprehensiveness a white thing? How is timeliness a white thing? What the fuck is wrong with the people who come up with this shit?
I’m Latino, and a lot of this applies to me. How does that work? I didn’t get the memo.
Welcome to the White Privilege Club, sir! Here is your secret map to the DMV if you ever need an ID. The password to get in is “Personal Responsibility.” Enjoy!
You are a person of color but because you don’t sit around and complain about everything wrong with this country and get on with the business of taking care of shit like most Americans you are not colorful enough. According to the woke handbook, Hispanics are moving toward Asian (all Asians) status in that you are succeeding in this great country in spite of all the structural racism. So therefore you have white privilege.
I would add a 98th checkbox: “Fuck You!”
They can kiss my butt with this bullshit. Fuck this guy.
My parents are dead.
Dudes…this playbook of these fucktards is so over used. I grow bored and tired of their nonsense. There are hundreds of millions of us non wokers who are waiting in the shadows ready to pounce. Let the storm rage and when the time is right WE will right the ship. En Christo my friends.
So much for me donating to the YMCA or YWCA for this racist bullshit
Wonder if these are on the checklist:
1. I`ve been in a drive by before
2. I stole a flat screen out of Target during the George Floyd riots
3. I had sex with Jemele Hill
4. The last eight times i`ve been in jail I didn`t have to post bail
5. I won`t be getting a Fathers Day from any of my 6 baby mamas this year…….again
Hahahahahaha!
Lol I love that “My parents are alive” is a sign of being privileged. Literally the most basic thing possible. Being alive. No big deal if one is battling addiction or homeless and the other is fighting cancer or something. They’re alive, therefore you are privileged.
Another good one: Somehow back to back are “I’ve used prescription drugs recreationally” and “I’ve never had an addiction”. So abusing prescription drugs makes you privileged, but not being an addict also makes you privileged? Who comes up with this nonsense?
I know right, just like everything else with liberals it is an encyclopedia of contradictions and dichotomies.
