How would you respond to someone of high intersectionality who claims to be systematically oppressed by straight white cis-gendered (not transmen) Christian men? For example, "Are there some benefits of being LGBTQX, not-white, transpersoned, non-Christian, or female?". As you may know, intersectionality is the ranking system of identity politics where groups of people see the world as a battle between the "privileged" and the "oppressors" based mostly on immutable factors. It is also a movement to combine varied non-straight-cis-white-Christian-male groups against a common "enemy". Here's a calculator where you can get a "score" of your intersectionality: [intersectionalityscore.com]

First, I would ask what is the form of your perceived "opression?" Next, I would want to know if the person was complaining about private people or businesses, or the government exhibiting the defined oppression. Private parties cannot oppress anyone without the imprimatur of government. If whatever the oppression amounts to is government derived or sponsored, they have a point. If it is private, or in reality, they merely want others to condone their behavior, they are on their own, and likely have no idea what oppression means.

I'm not sure I agree with that entirely unless your sentence hangs entirely on the meaning of 'imprimatur of government' being somewhat mutable... I think oppression is entirely possible between private parties, and in my view is likely to be the more widely-spread and probably the commonest form. Though whether one could / would whittle it further to simply 'domination' for whatever personal reasons... would be a moot point.

Frankly the whole paragraph is incoherent. To many PC buzz words in there. The truth is we are all oppressed by someone everyday. The question is not are you oppressed. Its what are you going to do about it? Lay down and be walked over or stand up and push back. Raise yourself up and prosper inspite of others.

There are ways to manipulate fools into thinking you should have a "victim" advantage, but what good does it do except to push the agenda ...

Just as the categories of intersectionality are nearly infinite, the category of the oppressive class can be constructed to be whatever the aggrieved party needs it to be.

Like "Climate Change," Intersectionality is another god that Voltaire knew we would have to create, although, I think even he would have been amazed to see gods outnumbering their worshipers.

Ask open-ended questions. Be an "Active Listener". Nobody wants to be talked at. Everyone wants to be heard.

Aa long as silence isn't confused for acceptance ...

I think you first have to understand what discrimination is. If you are discriminated against due to your being a white Christian male, straight person, you would have to have a real life example where those qualities effected your socio-economic and political status as a result of discrimination or in this case, racism. Not just where you were insulted or where you were denied a certain thing that you wanted.

As I see it, in America every stratification of class offers white Christian straight males, the strongest tail winds for success.

As a white Christian straight male you may think you aren't racist, but you really are.

Why?

Because racism exists in law, in cultural, in business, in politics and without any doubt white Christian straight males have not been the victims, as a race, ever.

So you start with your cultural identity, then you say "it must happen", but it didn't. Not in America.

YET.

I would respond by stating homosexuality is immoral as is heterosexual promiscuity. God condemns both both. They are, by far, not the only, or chief sins (there is no scale 1 to 10 on sin severity) all sin is disobedience. "Intersectionality" is newspeak.
The fact is, Black, White, Purple is meaningless as we are all spirit beings in an earth suit. "Trans" is mental dysfunction. The homosexual agenda, beside brainwashing children (our most valuable and vulnerable asset), is to eradicate Christianity because the two cannot coexist. Nutshell: homosexuality is sin, transexaulity is mental disorder, not conditions people are born with. What we are born with is a hatred for God and His Truth.

If homosexuality is sin and there is no scale 1 to 10 on sin severity, how can Christianity and homosexuality not coexist? According to the Bible, everyone has sinned. Christianity seemingly exists because we are all sinners. Worse, we'll be sinners tomorrow and 10 years from now. Seems like a contradiction. You seem to elevate homosexuality into some kind of sin hierarchy.

@chuckpo
They cannot coexist because the homosexual agenda includes FORCING compliance. All you have to do is look at the Christian bakers and florist. Where Christians recognize everyones right to their own form of self destruction, deviants recognize only complete acceptance.

@AlladinSane, before this stuff--before the legalization of gay marriage, I stated that homosexuals weren't looking for legal rights to be homosexuals. They already had them. What they were looking for was to force the church into validating and normalize their behavior. REALLY fascinating dynamic. I'd be really curious to see what you think about that.

So, you're arguing that homosexuality won't allow Christianity to exist? I have to reread your first assertion. OKAY, I can see that. I misread your intention. That's really interesting. I can think of a few conservative homosexuals of late talking on the topic--a small bridge between the groups, but they don't go into a lot of detail on how this 'merger' works or even how it works for them. It's an extremely complicated topic, and I realize critics won't listen to the Christian perspective, let alone understand. Tough position.

@chuckpo I feel the same about homosexual 'right's as I do about woman's 'rights'. They already have them. We all have human 'right's endowed by our Creator. What homosexual s want is to elevate themselves above 'normalmy sexed' people, especially Christians (Christ, demanding adherence to God's laws, is in direct opposition to their lifestyle of choice). Besides, basing your identity on a sexual preference is counter productive to Spiritual growth.
