Description
Applejack needed to kick out the ziggers from their job because that is racist. The zebras are jobless and starving in the streets now, but at least this image isn’t racist anymore.

How long until this becomes the next controversy?

Some people in parts of the world don’t even have internet access.
It’s too bad actually. Because they have little to way to actually voice their struggles, opportunistic social justice trust funds are able to hijack the narrative and weaponize those struggles for gains.
It’s disgusting.

There’s nothing quite like replying to someone ending a Twitter thread about systemic oppression with a PayPal link with, “spending all day tweeting is itself a privilege”
And I doubt most of those same dolts would ever be willing to forfeit their confortable lifestyles. While sitting on their recliners as they tap away on their screens complaining about “oppression” this “oppression” that.

Maybe our generation is simply envious of our past generations and is desperate to make a name for itself. In doing so, we believe that taking somebody else’s historical struggles and using it as our own as a crutch for their problems would get us somewhere.

That’s part of the problem with the phrase, and people just use it as a means to decry others’ POVs as “less important” then others.
Cracked.com had a good article on “Why Checking Your Privilege has Helped nobody.” (Or something like that.)

Yeah, cheap, foreign labor gets exploited, and sadly slavery does exist in other countries.

Most first worlders prefer to ignore the fact that our lifestyles hinge on exploiting cheap and dirty foreign sometimes illegal labour. Just because it’s out of site it’s out of mind. Yet we complain about slavery and CLIMATE CHANGE.
Ever wonder what it takes to make our cup of Joe we enjoy every waking morning? Let that sink in.
I guess it makes sense… when you use the definition i first encountered - “when you think something is not a problem because it has never happened to you”. Granted, under that definition, everyone has privilege to some degree…
Yeah, it’s hilarious!
I did lose a li’l respect for him when he unironically told somebody to “check their privilege.” (I didn’t even know people still threw that term around. I assumed it was finally outdated, and a joke now.)
The successful, white, TV show director/artist whom is getting ready to make his own cartoon is telling somebody to “check their privilege.” Let that sink in.

He used to be cool until twitter got a hold of him.
You sure hate BigJim it seems.
Ah! It doesn’t matter. Just ship it all from the MaLong Empire where everything is assembled by curved horned unicorn foals being paid STELLAR wages.
