check your privilege

A saying/online expression that is mainly used by social justice warriors to remind that the body they are born in comes with specific privileges that do not apply to specific arguments or situations. The phase also suggests that when considering another person's plight, one must acknowledge one's own inherent privileges and put them aside in order to gain a better understanding of his or her situation.

Right Privilege

A degenerative condition that causes Liberals to be incapable of being wrong, even when presented with facts to back up the subject in question. Also can manifest itself when a viewpoint that differs from that of the Liberal that suffers from said condition is brought up. Usually the conversation ends with the Liberal throwing out various emotionally charged epithets, such as saying you are a racist, bigot, etc.
Even though I cited my sources in our conversation, that Liberal suffered from Right Privilege and could not be reasoned with.
