OK, fine, then next time just say "assuming you're a 'white dude', check your privilege please" and be done with it. It's much shorter and makes your point much clearer.

> If every white dude who "stays out of politics" understands that a) they can do that because previous political activity of white dudes has given them that option, and that b) they are supporting that system if they participate in that system while not talking about politics, then I have no beef with them.

You are literally still assuming that everyone is using your definition of the word "politics." I don't know what else I can do to explain this to you. Re-read my comments I guess? Because you still haven't gotten it.

Buddy, I understand your point, I just don't agree. I've been thinking about the topic longer than you've been alive, so I'm unlikely to be persuaded by you just repeating your point ad nauseam.

I also didn't hire you as an editor, so you can take your amateur writing advice and fuck right off.
