Check your privilege

Check your privilege is a phrase used by SJWs to shutdown discussion and shame those that they believe live in a privileged position in society. Proponents of this idea often have a simplistic world view and routinely fall for the apex fallacy.

The use of the phrase peaked in early 2014 and is now in decline. It is common for SJWs to adopt new phrases and discard old ones every few years.
