Which are just fancy words for suggesting some opinions weigh more than others, or some ought perhaps to be heard more or less than others. Which, ironically, is a great deal of what BLM is protesting against. Telling a movement what it “should do” is still just an opinion. You can either deal with it, or shout it down. As far as I can see, the claim of “white privilege” is commonly used as an intellectually weak means of shouting down.
