How Privileged Are You? 

I am homeless with my family, my parents can't work, I am bullied because I'm white, have bad hair, and old stretched our clothes. Yeah, I'm pretty privileged. 👌

you have accesses to the internet so i don't believe you

I'm honestly weirded out a little that everyone else of color got a much lower score. Im Asian but I got an 80 cause I don't feel discriminated against and I am straight and I'm just very fortunate I guess.

+Alexandra Thompson Seems legit.

+the gourd king pumpkin my family is in poverty but the only way I can still get Internet and all that is if my family pushes back bills until we have too many to take care of and go to food banks and work more than normal. I can still get internet but there are some disadvantages to keep on having these things. I don't even have money saved up for me for college because my family used all of it to keep us from not having a home and all that.

Redoralive yup

Redoralive "Hey mom! Guess what? I'm literate! My teacher was wrong about me!"

Redoralive and where did you get these statistics

Dark Survivor UNESCO

Zeke Hernandez You're validating my comment. What next; a quiz for white Americans to see how many of their ancestors were slaves.

I got 45. Damn my parents are FURIOUS

hahah

my score doesn't matter, because I'm white and i already have a future since I'm privileged.

I got a 97 and mother is going to kill me

Whelp I got 32 lol

Because it's used as a way to invalidate what you say, invalidate your experiences, and invalidate how much you are struggling in whatever aspect. It can be just rude. If I go up to a gay guy living in Indonesia, and say he is privileged because he is male, that's just rude, because most likely, that 'privilege' won't help him from being stoned to death for being gay- i'm acting like the fact he's male means he's "privileged", and that word entails assumptions like he has an easy life, when he does not in fact have an easier life than a black trans gay muslim whatever living in America.

Because all whites that work at buzzfeed got a strong case of white guilt. They hate their roots and want to be black so they can whine about racism even more.

it’s not bad but it blinds you to a majority of the world’s struggles

Kaycee Yeah you’re privlaged.

Because they think it’s real, it’s not.

that's like saying you are not allowed to feel hungry because people are starving, just saying

You know what I mean.

+gloria aeternae isn't complaining about hunger and being hungry something different?

Kinda i guess

My point is that there is always someone who has it worse than you

Case in point...

That's so rude and unkind towards ppl who are actually working at buzzfeed or wish to work at buzzfeed or like working at buzzfeed.

@@jahnavee_palsodkar they're sjws, I'd rather much love seeing each and every one of those degrading peices of garbage burned alive.

exactly, am i susposed to be ashamed that i have worked hard and my parents worked hard so i could live a nice life.

it's not bad to be priviliged......denying it is bad

That's not what this video is about. It's showing how people don't realize how privileged they actually are and how thye take it for granted

+backlash Apparently. Shame on your parents for working hard.

+backlash that's the OK kind of privilege the bad kind is if your white or straight or not trans that it might give an advantage in life it's probably not your fault anyways it just society and our culture these days

Also, "Privilaged" isnt always something you were born with. Privilage is something you can earn by working hard or gaining trust. a phone is a privilage and you can gain it by buying it or recieving it as a gift.

+Cale Cale not the same thing at all.

+Cale Cale you don't know what a privilege is. A privilege is something given to you, if you worked hard for it then it's not a privilege.

No honey.... Different type of privilege.

Unproductive Failure this is the only RU-vid comment that has ever made me laugh. Consider that an honour :)

LMAO Gold

If you are a female, its not gay, its lesbian.

we all know that disability's nd socio-economic status just can't compare to the horrors of making coffee.

It goes to show that race and sex are not necessarily the determining factors of privilege in every social situation.

Not even close to being what this was trying to accomplish.

+The_Left Behind Kind of is. They used their own employees on their own serve scripted to make their own video.

AndrewJC00 How do you know it was scripted? Anyways, this wasn't meant to shame anyone, you guys are really missing the point here.

***** You shouldn't be ashamed of it. I'm Hispanic but I look white and I'm proud of it.

The_Left Behind I'm not saying it was scripted but it's definitely demonizing white people when it shouldn't.

well we are going based off American privilege and still many people that have phones now could've not been able to at some point in their life time

yep girl, same

Tried the test myself too, and got 23 points. Even though I'm like you, I have a phone, TV, clean clothes, hearing, and a roof over my head. I feel very privileged..

I got 31 but I have been homeless, lived under the poverty line and had racist things said to me.

completely agree even though I got 17 out of 100 aha.

Being a man is a privilege. Is like being straight, they will stop being so when discrimination ends

@@escupetube what? Being a man means you have a higher chance of being killed, and being less protected then society.

@@LS-qt9bo not to mention that you would have to work more on average

Yes. Your point is? Being a man IS a privilege.

Banana Jones no it isn’t, as a man the world’s against you.

those questions were literally on the test...

If you a white man shut up you better than us acknowledge your privilege (sarcasm)

cool cool

I live in America and I can not relate even if I tried.

Miscellaneous Mind even the poor of America are more better then the poor of less rich countries. At least we ain't being constantly bombed and we're not killed if we say something about someone, look at all mocking jokes aimed at Trump.

i live in finland so i would get 150%

Marco Cepeda you don’t know that. You can’t just assume that everyone that has a job and lives in America are privileged.

Wether you've ever flown at all, if you even have the documentation. Blah blah blah

If you're an orphan or not, which parents were in your life, who you lived with as a child, if you depend on your friends, your parents education, their race.

And it focuses a lot on people with jobs who have graduated college. The majority of Buzzfeed's audience is still in high school, so a lot of the questions don't apply. This whole test in general is far too generic and won't give accurate results for most people, even privileged people

it missed a lot of important things that it should have talked about

that's true (probably privileged people who made it)

andyroo8j it's not that buzzfeed wants this to be happening but it is what's happening

@@kellyfurman6309 No, I don't think white privilege exists.

people have privileges bc of their race so it’s not really their fault

@Women & Women First yes both agree races do. But it's harder to find black privilege.

Jaden Lack then you are blind

Yep

Sorry for the text wall lol

Exactly. My parents worked hard for me and provided for me so that I can pursue my dreams. I should be proud and thankful for that, not ashamed lol

Why did you say folks

Yeah you shouldn't be ashamed, just aware, and you are and that's good. But being aware also means accepting that you've had an advantage, and you shouldn't be bashed for it. And the fact that you think it's only a small part of your life shows you aren't truly aware. Also the fact that you think it's gone too far, shows your ignorance to a real issue that doesn't affect you.

But no one is asking you to be ashamed. They are asking you to be aware of the advantages that you are given by birth and circumstance, which many people don't enjoy. These advantages span from feeling accepted to feeling safe, but many people don't think of those as advantages. They think of them as rights, but they are really privileges. I am white and not poor, so I have never felt unsafe walking through the TSA line, nor have ever worried about people thinking I was committing a crime or a criminal just by looking at me (police, store owners, etc.). I never had to work a service job to feed and shelter myself, and I have had to opportunity to go to college and then go to graduate school. Those are all privileges that I have simply because I'm white and not poor. They are not rights, and they are not accessible options to many people. Ignoring that is why people have been bringing up privilege a lot recently. People are quick to say things like, "Just try harder," "Race doesnt matter," and "You got same-sex marriage, so what more do you need?" Those are privileged statements that ignore the inherent inequalities of not having the privileged majority identities, such as but not limited to the daily fear of harm. You are misconstruing this discussion as an attack on you when it's not that at all. It's an attack on a system that grants people privilege, not based on merit or their own choices, but based on being a certain race, a certain gender identity, a certain sexual orientation, a certain income level, a certain family style, and more. The fact that people are miscontruing the discussion of privilege as an attack on them is what makes having this important discussion unnecessarily difficult. tl;dr : You aren't being asked to be ashamed; just be aware and apply that awareness in helpful ways.

you act like that took a lot of effort. I think my 5 and 7 year old could tear this video apart with ease. But his video was amusing none the less lol

no he didn't

+KenyaGrant You don't like reality, do you?

Haha, you're right. There's questions about student loans and bills.

For those questions I just put what my parents had to go through from the time I was born to right now because I'm still in high school

I løve bands, nøt shøpping receipts In the Uk you finish school at 16:) we don't have a highschool like you guys - you either continue to A levels (16-18 befotre uni) if you passed the set of controlled exams or you get a job or a apprenticeship Also things like the healthcare/mental health questions- treatment in the Uk is (currently) free.

It works for British people as well..

Men have lower right btw

@@floppy793 lmao pls just shut the f up

I got 58! Thought would get more!

Exactly!! And people are getting so defensive and offended by this test, I got a pretty high score and that just made me feel grateful, and remained me of people who are not as privileged

It's not something to me ashamed of but you have to be aware.

Damn, you just made my day :)

But those same people you try to help will be bitter towards you and see you as the enemy no matter what you do........

@@rexdilligam6261 most likely brazil.

Evelyn Turner idk i think what they are trying to say is that men don’t have to worry as much or have more advantages in life

bc it is, woman often fear men because they are perceived as the stronger gender and woman are shamed for a lot of things that men aren’t

I may me a little late, but I would just like to know in what reason you think women are generally more privileged than men.

@First Last Thank you, for giving me these examples. I've never heard about the first thing before, but I looked it up and found out, that it is a regular occurrence from some judges to decide like that. This surprised me, but I know too little about it to really discuss this. And the other topic also seems quite complicated so I won't get into it. Thanks again for these examples.

Women can get away with a lot more things than men can

he's probably doing what makes him happy, that's all that matters

+Cole Tague oh I'm sorry? did my comment trigger you? I'm sorry that YOU aren't happy. I hope you find your happiness😘

I also had a hard time deciding whether to check or not check some of the boxes. Some things are more complicated than a yes or a no.

What gender?

Yep, any mark is +1 privilege point. But for an example point 1 i am white male + 1 point. i am heterosexual +1 i am male +1... +3 only becouse you are white straight male and becouse you like your gender +7 points. Dont have colege loans +1. For my country is normal to NOT take loadns for school or university. got a job ... +1. Never been homeless ... +.1 I don’t rely on public transportation. well i dont, from end of the city to the outher walking 45min. I live in the middle of the city 10 min walking to everywhere wtf i will need public transportation? But doesnt matter +1. ''I have had an unpaid internship.'' I have had multiple unpaid internships.'' and this is the same question ... and i dont get wtf this is privilege to work for no money? but doesnt matter +2. I graduated high school. +1 yey the great privilege to finish high school, you are not lazy so you are privilege.'' I graduated college''. the same''My parents are heterosexual.''My parents are both alive.''My parents are still married.'' 3 more nonsence +3 points. Privilege becouse my parents are alive. +23 from noncense. and there are more just cant take that joke anymore.

Max Diaz yeah

the unpaid internship is a privilege because you are able to spend time working without receiving money and are working towards a wanted career. People who have less money are not able to take an internship like this because if they didn't work for money as often as often as possible (multiple jobs), they would be homeless or have no food, heat, electricity etc. To not have to worry about finances enough to be able to take an unpaid job for the experience of it is definitely a privilege.

@@user-bo7de6by4d Thank you

people are salty af

I know exactly what you mean! Race and gender should not be accounted for, because that does not define privilege. At this current moment I am just glad to be safely home and have not been killed or caught in the middle of the political and racial struggles my country has at the moment.

I don't know why, but honestly I hate this word. It do make me feel, like because of certain circumstances that I have no control of I am a person to be blamed because someone else didn't get the chances I supose I've got. If that makes sense. And I know world is nasty place when one judges another all the time. But I'm trying not to, even thou it's not easy sometimes.

Because people have built people that way. That's why

it's not privileged you moron

in my opinion white straight males are the most privileged in america (not all tho) an there are little/big things they can get away with that a poc/lgbt probably wouldnt

+Salimah Muhammad this^^^

+PyroEnderSlayer tell that to Latinos and Blacks in America. There have been scientific studies done where identical resumes one with a white sounding name like "Andy Burke" for example and one with a black sounding name like Tyrell Jackson where sent to the same 13 companies. White dude got 6-7 follow ups and I recall 2 interviews, black dude got one follow up. How is this not privilege? Same qualifications just the name was different, they hadn't even met the guys yet and automatically the white dude is advantaged. Defend these actions and go.

+Salimah Muhammad most straight white guys I know grew up poor on a farm. So much privilege right?

+GENOSHOCK white privilege doesn't mean you automatically mean you become rich, it means that poor white guy won't get killed by cops for the identical crime a black dude commits. It means he won't get pulled aside at the border like a Latino would at the US border. He won't get mocked for "being on her rag" when having a bad day at work like a woman would.

Trey Hanson preach

It doesn't offend anyone, it's really nice you got to have that. I have that too, just sometimes think of the ones who don't have that, that's what there saying. Be there for one another.

Lol idiot

People really do need to stop looking at privilege as a negative thing. Even the way they regard it in the video. It's very counterproductive.it is an extremely powerful tool! It need to be appreciated, distributed, and utilized appropriately.

Trey Hanson lol same

No there's not, but it opens your eyes to those less fortunate.

Lol what does buzzfeed ever do to help less privileged people? All they do is sham white ppl

You should though, because when you dont it makes you the type of person who ant relate with other people. You have to acknowledge your privelage for sure!

Leutnant van Noord It's not, but can't they produce stuff like this for curiosity or entertainment's sake? It also brings awareness anyway.

Felony Harlem Entertainment? All I got from this video is cringe and guilt, funny I'm not even a white male.

I'm pretty sure the morality was to educate people to be more aware of their advantages but sadly turned out to be controversial

Leutnant van Noord nope, but buzzfeed isn't interested about that, they like raising issues and causing issues.

asians are doing better than whites in every way you believe whites are doing better off than blacks. No one seems to care about asian privelage aisans are the highest earners www.pewresearch.org/daily-number/asian-americans-lead-all-others-in-household-income/ Asians make up a larger portion of the labor force despite being only 5% of the populationtable 5 www.bls.gov/opub/reports/race-and-ethnicity/archive/labor-force-characteristics-by-race-and-ethnicity-2014.pdf and only 1% of the incarcerated www.bop.gov/about/statistics/statistics_inmate_race.jsp

Abby Dorway It was just a joke comment.

@@clairestark9024this commenter is not Buzzfeed. They are telling you to not be ashamed despite what the video implies

Also your religion does not hold you back either

And why are they making people who do have a leg up on others to feel bad? It's the people who have the privileges that are successful that make the less privileged want to succeed as well. I will never put down a person who is successful because he came from a privileged upbringing. I will look down upon someone who came from a privileged upbringing and threw it all away just like you look down upon someone who is under privileged and what do anything for themselves. Buzz feed needs to step outside and stop watching so much news

well I agree with you but there are people out there that bully make fun of attic for their race sexuality and gender some people are raceist some people r homophobes some people are sexist women get payed less than men for doing the same job some kids get dissowned for being gay just because thiir less privaged doent mean they cant do anything

Being a part of the military, can possibly erase any possibility of being non privileged or add (if you're in combat and come back disabled in some form). but for you to believe that race, gender and religion does not affect what you get in life is absolutely incorrect

You're inviting lawsuits with this comment.

pretty privilege bruh

Pretty privilege is most definitely a thing. Use ex con Jeremy Meeks as an example. He went to prison and his mugshot went viral. He made a lot of money, was cast in movies, and became a model because he was an attractive felon. Don't tell me that would happen to someone who was average looking.

@@jabathepegasus i might be going too deep now, but being good looking is about hormones, not the good looks themselves. Its like that in the animal world too. So basically an attractive man will on averege be more succesful because of his hunger to achieve, because of his hormones

What about child sex slaves

+Jaime Rodriguez They never have to worry about not being able to get laid

+Jaime Rodriguez Even though that's what they were born into they still have some type of privilege such as their ethnicity, nationality, religion etc..

A child sex slave is privileged because of their ethnicity, nationality, religion etc? God damn you regressives are the most bigoted people i have ever seen. I bet even a literal nazi would hesitate before saying that about a jew.

+tommy Long the buzzfeed comment section is filled with all the bottom of the barrel SJWs. how dare those raped children be white!

No one is saying to feel ashamed for being privileged. It gives good perspective looking at how you perceive life compared to some.

CivicGuard exactly what I was thinking. This mentions nothing of any abusive situations / parents gone and it asks minimally about the home life.

u joking?! wtf

Sabreena Oakley I meant wtf how did you not know about. sorry for confusion

Sabreena Oakley Tell me how being a pakistani woman has made your life bad please. Feeling "afraid" because of racism isn't a bad life. Your statement is invalid

Sabreena Oakley So your whole life has been "bad" because people have screamed racist things towards you. You don't think that everyone encounters people screaming at them? From a POC to another POC, I think you need to realize how priviliged you really are, you brat.

Sarcasm or no

NightSlaya ;3; of course...do you think there are no poor/discriminated white people? they might aswell put in "blonde" if they are going to make a racist test

Lmao... you are privileged if you're white though. Yes there are poor white people. But if you took two people who live the exact same life and are carbon copies of each other, except one is a person of color and one is white, the white one is still more privileged. A poor white person is more privileged than a poor person of color.

Mohammad Ibrahim that's so racist

not really

They all were!!

+Brooke Houts Yeah

I agree, but even more so I love how non-defensive he was.

alice laing there is a lot of categories for privilege it is kinda hard to include everything

alice laing Because these are legitimate questions that don't involve identity politics and therefore don't fit buzzfeed's agenda...

it's to do with your born identity, not your individual family situations

Like I said, privilege society allots you based on things you have inherently. Abuse is not inherent or related to race.

alice laing they have "I have never gone to bed hungry" which is exactly like you get your meals daily and "have you ever been abused or assaulted" which clearly means by anyone including your parents. And if that has happened to you, I'm sorry

don't be. don't let kind actions of yours revolve around some misplaced guilt complex, brought about by absurd test like these.

You should never feel ashamed of being born with more opportunities. What a joke. Just do your best to help the people who aren't as fortunate!

you belong on a cringe compilation

+Lukas Re true

love the Hannibal pic though☺

Yeah, I'm with you on that. I think this quiz skips over the topic of money, and instead focuses on how you feel in society

that's nice

Pokemon Vids and More I'm middle eastern too! I'm Israeli 🇮🇱 Where are you from?

Toy Review Fun Part of my family is Assyrian! And they lived in Iraq

I got about the same score and I feel exactly the same you do!! I feel pretty privileged but not according to the quiz.

Much more underneath.

I got a 47, and have similar characteristics to your story. I think what you wrote was put beautifully. Of course I recognize that my color, my parents' money, and my schooling are things I should be grateful for and I am, but there is definitely more beneath the surface.

The same story except I got a 36

I know how you feel I got 32 on this quiz. I'm bisexual I've never told anyone, also sometimes I struggle with my gender. I even struggle with depression and anxiety. But everyone thinks I'm privileged because I'm white (even though I'm quarter Hispanic) and the I was born a female.

Hispanic is not a race

Did I mention that my biological father sexually and emotionally abused me for years? The court let my mom keep me and raise me right, but I'm still not asking for the world to bow at my feet.

I am privileged (I got 50) am I supposed to be ashamed that my parents worked so hard to get me to where i am today.

this white privilege this is garbage to make us all feel bad.

Same here sister, except my dad passed away from cancer last year. I'm sorry about your dad

Yep! It's definitely no ones fault that they were born into ____ family or _____ sexuality, and we should all embrace ourselves (and each other) for who we are. The problems only arise when people fail to see that privilege exists and some people get it tougher than others. We need to be able to see differences and help each other!

Wow. Someone with logic and a positive, realistic mentality. You're rare.

You are amazing I totally agree

Preach it

*insert thank you gif here*

I feel the same way. I don't judge any of my other friends based on it but I have friends who do it to me

I hate it when people say "we've worked hard to get where we are" because not everyone has the same circumstances and opportunities, and sometimes it's not the persons fault they couldn't get to where you are. Not blaming you, I'm just trying to explain my POV.

+Vanessa _____ I see what you are saying with how some people work really hard to be successful and get nowhere and how some people don't try at all and become successful. However, my family really worked hard. My great grandfather was a coal miner just making enough to get my grandfather through school. My grandfather became a sheriff and started a scuba diving business. My father worked at that scuba shop, worked throughout college and made his way throughout the ranks in the Air Force. He now flies planes for delta. In three generations my family went from the bottom of the economic scale to the upper middle class. That's why I believe in capitalism so much. It may not be a guarantee to wealth and may not be a quick solution all the time but it served my family well. It makes me believe that if I get a good education and if I work hard, I can become successful and allow my children to become even more successful.

+Jasmine EL HORRI I see your point

+Vanessa _____ So we should everyone to be the same? Sounds to me like communism.

you're way too clever for the adult world

I agree with you somewhat, but it's undeniable that white people make up the majority of western civilisation (the 'privileged' areas), so being born white does give you a much bigger chance of having a good, successful life than any other colour.

+Aamna Irfan no it doesn't because there's equal opportunity.

+Doctor Lyoko We're made to think that there's equal opportunity and even though it has gotten more equal there are still a select few places and people that block opportunities. It is not 100% equal and it never will be.

It takes all of that into account. WTF are you on about?

Elp Smith that's the thing though to have equal work for minorities and whites is incredibly inconvenient just provide equal opportunities and choose who's best for the job.

I agree that it does seem sort of pretentious and cringey, but I think it is important to recognize your privilege in a sort of Thanksgiving type way.

What I meant was more like "Oh, I am so lucky to have had the money to get to college" or "Wow, I need to stop acting so self absorbed, because I had privileges in life that some people didn't, so I should learn to appreciate that."

Miranda Duke But why is that important? How is knowing that you have more than some others going to change anything?

It's just self awareness, and it could inspire some people to go and try to change things for people who happened to have been born with less privilege

Miranda Duke You don't have to know how much you have in order to want to improve others' lives. You just have to be a decent person.

so true!

Remember that it's all relative: that's a starving wage in the US. In Poland, for example, that is middle class.

And the offers for students are about 7ZŁ per hour, which is about 4 times less than 7$...

i get 8 an hour and im considered poor in arkansas.

SHUT UP YOU CISGENDER

Y'all don't need to be sorry for something you can't change you don't have to feel guilty

They're not tying to make you sorry. They're trying to make you aware. At the end of the video, Ned was not like, I'm sorry for what I am. You can't change it. They're just trying to make you aware of the other lifestyles there are out there.

Plus privileged doesn't mean your a bad person. It just means you live on easier standards than others. Plus, it's a test. It isn't gonna be perfect or please everyone or give everyone a great score.

+Sophia Guo That's not the message their sending. The whole idea of privilege just makes minority's groups angry at white males that have done nothing wrong. On top of that, it reinforces the idea to minority's groups that they are worse than the majority, which leads to them not feeling comfortable about who they are. They should be telling everyone to accept who they were born as and to see disadvantages they have as challenges they have to overcome
