So I've had quite the post racial day [View all]

I woke with a troll demanding an apology to white men on du on my private email address

Followed by a demand to delete a thread of mine with my phone number attached. Which I complied with because I didn't want crazy crank calls.

Then I received this message 'In future though, don't fuck with white men. Don't post anything negative about white men. Don't talk about white privilege, because there's no such
thing as white privilege. The bullshit and hate speech that white men have
to listen to on DU will no longer be tolerated. Things are going to
change. You can warn the rest too, because they're no longer anonymous
either.'


So I'm thinking we should have a conversation about the level of privilege you have in society where you feel entitled to stalk someone and then instruct them about what they can and cannot discuss publicly
