Good, I agree. And I still argue that the word ‘privilege’ isn’t correct here. We want to call this ‘double standard’, ‘unfairness’, ‘disadvantage’, ‘advantage’, … that’s up to a debate. But I rest my case that this isn’t a ‘privilege’
To quote source of all truth - Google first page:
privilege
/ˈprɪv(ɪ)lɪdʒ/
a special right, advantage, or immunity granted or available only to a particular person or group.
“education is a right, not a privilege”
How is that a ‘privilege’? I don’t know like you but for me the ‘privilege’ is something above normal, above standard, above majority. A king has a privilege of not paying taxes, everyone must pay them but not him, he has this privilege. A diplomat has a privileges that are above law, like they cannot get fine for speeding. We could say a kid whos parents are billionaires has a (hypothetical) privilige in life where they can get everything they want and family budget isn’t affected. That is not normal and only few chosen ones have those privileges.
So back to my question - not being judged by the way you look is not something above normal. That is the standard, that should be a norm. I don’t know how we want to call the situation in the post but that’s not a privilege. At all. Rant over.
I was there for a teambuilding! Beautiful city, I want to return one day
While not amazing, Silent Hill was ok (6.5 on imdb)
This was absolutely unexpected and I’m shocked aswell. I’m certain her supporters will be deeply touched by this and will now turn their backs on her
Ok I start. For Slovakia I say ‘Kráľovná bielych tenisiek’ (Queen of white sneakers) by Elán

It umm … It’s nice she’s giving them some helping hand, am I right?

It has 230 ft, that’s 70 m since we’re in Europe
I hope they rename it to something cooler because now it’s horrible. I mean the ‘train’? What? How about the ‘MegaTrain’! ‘CyberTrain’, ‘SciTrain’, ‘E-Thruster’, ‘TransEther’ or plain ‘T’. You know, because that’s what’s the most important
Sigh, well I get downvotes but I just say it - because it’s more restrictive and some people really like that, dare I say live for that. I’m pretty sure in 20-30 years there’ll be a more restrictive diet than veganism and it’ll be the new cool
Yes, animal cruelty is a real problem. But I’d say the message then is “choose responsibly the source of your milk and eggs”, not necesarilly jump-full-vegan
I’d like to be calm but since I live in a country neighbouring Ukraine … yeah, I’m scared
