Just like tumblr is ground zero for privileged females attending $30,000/year liberal arts colleges for women's studies, right?

I wouldn't know, I'm a male computer scientist.

There's a term for people like you, but it's not very flattering.

Is that supposed to be an insult? It's not very good.

What's the insinuation here?

That if you are white, or cis, or a male, then you are innately evil and do not deserve to be treated with the respect that all humans deserve.

If you are white, cis and male, you need to understand how that affects positively how society treats you. Because society treats you better than any other group. Then you need to think about how that shapes your opinions so that you can understand the complaints of the less privileged.

For example, if you are a white New Yorker, you might say "stop and frisk is fine, I never get stopped so they must only be stopping criminals". However, once you realise that the police disproportionately stop black people, you are better able to understand black people's complaints about the policy. It's nothing sinister or hateful. It's a way to critically evaluate ones own biases.

It's not a way to critically evaluate biases, the way you and others use it today. It's a way to insult people for the sexuality, sex, or ethnicity they were born to. Do you really want to behave in the same way the people on Fox News do?

Many HN commenters do not understand, nor want to understand, the reality of the experiences of marginalised groups.
