What is white privilege? [W:355]

Re: What is white privilege?

Horsecrap. I put up a link showing how liberals shamed white kids in one school. Many more could be found as it happens all over and at all levels. Just because you aren't guilty of it doesn't mean it's not happening regularly.

I didn't see your link. And just how were they shamed? Any idea?
 
Re: What is white privilege?

Scientific facts are not de-facto.

You tried to sound smart. You tried to pretend science is stupid. And all for racism.

Nothing I've posted is racist and you can't defend your positions. You're embarrassing yourself and sound like a child.

I missed this link. What post?
 
Re: What is white privilege?

You leftists need to realise that the over use of certain words devalues them to the point where everyone ignores them.

Your position is racist and your only support is your own personal total ignorance, which you proudly declare.

Don't you see that's what every racist does all the time?


"There's no racism!"

"How do you know?"

"Never seen none!"


The racist dance.
 
Re: What is white privilege?

People talk about white privilege but forget that white people dominated manufacturing jobs and corporate America happily shipped those jobs to China. So is there a chinese privilege now??
 
Re: What is white privilege?

Yes, FDR became black Americans favored POTUS, due to many of his actions. FDR could not go far enough, and had to compromise with racist southern Democrats to get many of the programs passed.

The New Deal did help everybody, but proportionally, it helped white people more. Institutional white privilege.

We are still trying to correct that. It would help tremendously if more people acknowledged it's existence.

Most Democrats deny what you just admitted on this forum.

As to it helping whites, what you mean is it helped those that were higher earners. So many low earning whites got what blacks also got.

This bit we are trying to correct is very amusing given it causes ten times more problems for us all.
 
Re: What is white privilege?

Most sane people know it's nonsense. White people don't wake up in the morning thinking "I'm gonna hold someone back who's got more skin pigmentation than me".

Exactly.
The privilege that exists is systemic. It's been built into the system since the founding days of country.
White males made most all the rules.

Civil rights of the 1960s were an attempt to address some of the systemic issues. It helped but it didn't end them.

And no, I don't feel guilty.
 
Re: What is white privilege?

Now you're cheerleading personal insults against members.

Could you be any more pathetic?

This exceeds the recommended daily allowance of irony.
 
Re: What is white privilege?

I'll leave the leftists to read about non-existent problems.

They're non existent to you and me. I am white also.

But that doesn't mean it doesn't actually exist.
 
Re: What is white privilege?

I like how all the members holding the racist position have taken to personal attacks against me.

It illustrates my point.

What racist White men rules still exist in 2020?
 
Re: What is white privilege?

Capitalism doesn’t work that way. Capitalism is simple, if you have something worth paying for you will get paid for it, if not, you’re f***ed.

Post #52. Many more such stories can be found if you just look around, although Google tries to bury them as much as possible.

Pot meet kettle.

You can either defend your ideas or leave the playing field.

There's some racist bs in this thread, and everyone can see the handful of members it's coming from. The tiki torches.

They do not wake up thinking that but once they go to work, many look down on Black workers as not being as effective or as good as White ones. It is not a thinking process but an automatic one from believing that White is the primary color in the Universe.

Those who use their minds and look rather than feel, soon teach themselves that is not the case but those that don't think (just feel), it happens more often than not. Part of it is normal as most people think the world revolves around them anyhow no matter what color they are but when you look at the history of the world, Whites have been in control of the world a lot more than Blacks and that filters into people's hearts from childhood.

Black Obama has been President for 8 years. Why he didn’t he change the situation with Black, if it not enough good for black people ?

What racist White rules still exist in 2020?

Did I say they still exist today? Nope, I did not.

We have AA to address any that would exist. Just because laws have been updated, doesn't mean the minds of all humans have been updated.

It is systemic. It's been ingrained since the founding days. It takes generations and generations to remove.

I know you don't believe it. That's ok. There are all types of people.

Cost of Systemic Racism in the US
Because white people enjoy political, social, economic, and cultural power, they have certain privileges not available to People of Color (POC) as a. A majority of the white population also oppose US diversity programs within the education and employment sectors and often claim this is reverse racism. Slogans such as “Black Lives Matter” do not go unanswered as some members of the white population usually respond with slogans like “all lives matter” or “blue lives matter” without a background reason for the slogans. Systemic racism has repercussions for POC especially blacks which include; shorter lifespans, lesser income and wealth, limited access to quality education, limited political participation, inferiority complex and state-sanctioned killings by security organs among others. Worse still, whites still expect POC to carry the burden of proving racism even though whites contribute most to the vice. Upon providing proof, POC still have to bear the backlash of more accusations and excuses that follow.

Re: What is white privilege?

This post is amazingly inaccurate, on every possible level.

Congrats.

Please, tell me what you disagree with. Can I oppose violence toward police and property and not be a racist?

But that doesn't mean it doesn't actually exist.

You make it sound like white people are immune to racism. As it happens I think the political left always plays the racist card when the real inequality is caused by culture and the luck (good or bad) of being born in a particular time and space.99% of the population are not racist unless you believe ecofarm in which case anyone not black is racist.
