Christopher Rufo has published plenty of whistleblower documents on critical race theory training sessions and even classroom activities. Both often include an exercise on determining privilege. Teachers or students are given a sheet on which they check off the boxes to see if they’re the oppressor or the oppressed. White? Check. Straight? Check. Native English speaker? Check. Christian? Check. In this way, those straight white Christian males can see how their inherent privilege grants them power that they haven’t earned.
Someone (it sounds Australian) made a video demonstrating this “privilege bridge,” and as noted, it makes a convincing argument that women shouldn’t vote.

Ah, an Australian kids’ show.
So the message here is inequality is not boiled down to Education or opportunity, but by the fact that the white male knows magic?

Brings back warm memories of all those times I teleported to victory. Those were the days.

Where do I find this teleportation device? I don't remember it coming with my White privilege.

You're telling me I've had teleportation powers this whole time?

I want my teleportation privilege.

I've been white male for 46 years but am yet to actually receive my privilege. Do I get a voucher in the post or something?

Wow, what a subtle and thoughtful metaphor.

This is kind of crazy and it’s just this editor thinking out loud … but if there were a need for travel between those two pieces of land, a white man would probably design a bridge and white men would probably build it.
I really hope this is a joke and not serious.

Having been subjected to this has permanently traumatized me. I will never be able to cross the river of dreams because of this video.

We still don’t get it … there’s a “privilege bridge” but white men can just teleport to the other side?
