Love this comment! I actually had a similar experience. I have been open-minded in a lot of ways for a long time because I was fortunate enough to be educated in a very progressive environment, but Reddit introduced me to the concept that I could be someone without any trace of hate or distaste toward minorities and still be privileged, that it doesn't just go away if you're a nice member of the privileged class. I also met the first friend who refined my vocabulary to a more appropriate adaptation there. If only everyone's experiences with Reddit led them in that direction, rather than validating closed-mindedness for so many privileged individuals.
