“rich parents know something that poor parents don’t” say ppl pretending to care about class issues. “rich ppl know how to love and care for their children in a way poor ppl don’t” your politics aren’t anything

also frustrated that “white evangelicalism” has become the thing to critique which means no one has to “deconstruct” xianity itself. or even whiteness itself. white evangelicals get to maintain -white- christianity by making the scope of their critiques pinned on this one space

Christian privilege is so unquestioned that I have yet to read a single book critiquing Christianity that doesn't make sure to say "not all evangelicals" at least once, usually more even from writers who presumably know not to do that for any other form of privilege

everyone sexualizes the power dynamics between dr & patient, so many ppl crack jokes abt how sexually vulnerable/violating certain aspects of healthcare can be, but if you actually bring it up as a serious concern/issue or are traumatized by it, suddenly -you’ve- made it weird
