All three words in one: ignorant rich bitch
To be an ignoritch in a situation is to choose option C
Options A, B, C when you have privilege
Thought experiment: there are two people in a
hypothetical scenario
Person X has the privilege of knowing how to swim and person Y has the underprivileged circumstance of not knowing how to swim
Person Y had tried countless times to swim as a child and in this
hypothetical we assume that it may have likely been
impossible for person Y to have ever learned how to swim without being taught by another human being (whether said human being is family, friend, community member, or a paid instructor)
- Person Y is
in the water drowning, while Person X is not in the water
- Person X has three options: A,B,C
- Option A: To act in some way that causes person Y to drown less definitely
- Option B: To do nothing
- Option C: To act in some way that causes Person Y to drown more definitely
Every human being alive results in some degree of negative externalities, however, to be an ignoritch in a situation is to choose option C
It’s not a global negative
