Privilege points is just the buzz phrase for "things most people take for granted" but it's now been turned into some weird ass justification for blame and scapegoating, oh you have more than 40 privilege points, your opinion on this irrelevant heehawww.

Just more stuff for people to argue about needlessly.

I mean it's a buzzfeed quiz, and should be treated about as seriously as the Harry Potter sorting quizzes.

Near as I can tell, it just gives you a point for every question you answer. But that means questions like this

"I have never been raped" y/n
"I have never been violently threatened because of my sexuality." y/n

Are being weighed equivalently to questions like this

"I have never done my taxes myself." y/n
"I went to summer camp." y/n

TBH I can't even remember if I ever went to summer camp or not. I know my high school did some field trips to log cabins, but that was in like November and not summer. What exactly is this question measuring anyway?
