i like this. one of the interesting things about privilege is that you are not required to use facts to make your argument -- entitlement is enough. entitlement shuts down any questioning -- "how dare you question me?" or "that's ridiculous, only an idiot would think that." is this not the discourse that George and the Cabal engage in, all the time? we are right, not because we have the facts straight, but because we are entitled to be right.
