then, consider where I am on the "privileged" issue
race - where non-whites are oppressed and whites are privileged (oppressors, or just the beneficiaries of oppression?)

Clooney, of course, is a great guy, because he defended Obama, and Obama just incidentally promoted a policy which gave $1.5 million to Clooney.
Me, I am a fink, because I might charge that BOTH parties have been bought by rich people, and NEITHER of them, at least at the federal level, will side with the bottom 80%.
