I like if you put male you are instantly more privileged unless your Muslim.

This whole privilege system is so fucking stupid. I can gain a shit ton of intersectionality points by claiming to be trans-racial, transgender, gay, and Muslim. I can claim all of that and not change a single thing about myself. People are terrified of questioning any of your claims because they don't want to be labeled as bigoted, so might as well cheat the system

What has become of our society?

Whoops, it includes rich/poor, which is one thing that SJWs do not want to talk about. Coincidentally enough, many of them come from upper-class backgrounds.

PLaying around with the sliders, I can see how this works. The less "Intersctonality points" you have, the less you are considered oppressed, The more points you have, the more you are considered oppressed.

Leaving all other sliders in the nuetral position. I dragged one slider to it's far end one way, then to the far end the other way. I was curious how different factors were weighted.

The first slider is White/Person of color,

I slide the slider all the way to white and got a score of 36, then slid it all the way to person of color and got a score of 63. Then subtracted 63-36=27. Race is worth 27 oppression points

White/Person of color

36 / 63 = 27 oppression points

Straight/Gay

45 / 55 = 10 oppression points

Male/Female

42 / 57 = 15 oppression points

Cisgender/transgender

46 /54 = 8 oppression points

Rich/Poor

48/ 53 = 5 oppression points

Younger/Older

This one worked differently from the others, You got zero oppression points from the middle, up to -2 oppression point at either the younger extreme or the older extreme.

Able Bodied/Disabled

47 / 53 = 6 oppression points

English first Language/English Second Language

49 / 51 = 2 oppression points

Born in Canada / Born elsewhere

47 / 53 = 6 oppression points

More Educated / Less Educated

48 / 52 = 4 oppression points

Not Christian / Devout Christian

48 / 52 = 4 oppression points

Not Muslim / Muslim

47 / 53 = 6 oppression points

Not Jewish / Jewish

49 / 51 = 2 oppression points.

Gay White male here and I scored 51 meaning 88% of you are fucking way more better than me and my intersectionality points go thru the roof.

Mmmm... I feel like people who don't even have access to the internet are less privileged than me which begs the question : how did those people fill the survey in in order for me to have more privileged than 72% of the population........
Also, I feel like this survey assume that redheads and ginger are not oppressed because they don't have a soul... they should add an oppress-ometer for redheads... and for tall people... and for people that wear glasses... i am sure i'm missing some oppressed group somewhere...

Oh my fucking GOD that's not how intersectionality works. Intersectionality is an analysis on how various identities interact with each other and how their intersection roughly affects the lives of those of those identities. It is meant to add nuance, not create an Oppression Hierarchy.
