The Root is deeply, deeply racist. What I used to post on redacted (can we say the name on TDW?) I would point out how what they said was so heavily racist and get tons of shit for it. That was part of my venture to the republican side.
What they are suggesting is that white people are the most privileged, and that amongst black people, straight black men are the most privileged.
Within the progressive framework of social justice, there exists a progressive stack that says if you are "more oppressed" you are more of a victim, and do to the illogical nature of victim blaming (victims are never wrong and thus, always right) the more a victim of oppression you are, the higher your effective social standing.
In the mean stream American progressive stack, social justice rates white men (jews inclusive) as the least oppressed and thus the lowest within the progressive stack. In social justice, where your right to justice is based on your position within the progressive stack, straight white men are at the bottom and are the evil oppressor.
The progressive stack is relative, however, and within this context, which is of "black people" straight black men check the most privilege boxes and the least victim boxes, which places they at the bottom of that specific progressive stack. This means that, relatively speaking, straight black men are the evil oppressor within the relative social justice framework.
That's what The Root (of racism) is saying here.
