What is white privilege? [W:355]

Re: What is white privilege?

People like you are actually a benefit to real racism and racists. You make the allegation so much that it’s rendered nearly meaningless.

Only racists claim the word has no meaning. Everyone else remembers what it means.

Convenient, no?
 
Re: What is white privilege?

BS. Liberals regularly shame white kids, their own and others. There is no more guilt ridden species of human than the white liberal.

How can that be?
I am liberal socially speaking. I have kids and grandkids. I never made any of them feel guilty for being white.
I never mention guilt ever about being white.

That is conservatives. I've never heard or seen anyone be guilty for being white and the only people to bring it up are conservatives. Ever.

It's a construct of conservatives imagination.
Deep down, the conservatives must be the ones feeling guilt. Else there's no reason to mention it.
 
Re: What is white privilege?

I lived for years in CA and now in Idaho and even I saw that happening in England. But worse, all over Europe.

One of the reasons I'm using this forum instead of a UK one is that in the UK forums are overwhelmingly moderated by leftists...and they don't do free speech.

PS, how do you like a post here...I'm a bit thick...
 
Re: What is white privilege?

I think that sometimes it's the culture that is inferior and that people like you deliberately conflate race and culture.

Culture results from many things and, in the case you describe, that culture is driven by poverty. Poverty has many symptoms and many cycles.

Shifting the cause from poverty to black skin is racist.

Black people suffer disproportionate poverty as a result of racism, not as a result of their skin color. So called "black culture" is the result of poverty not skin color.
 
Re: What is white privilege?

White privilege is a divisive "term" devised by white liberals meant to put other whites in their place.
It holds about as much weight as the new term called "woke".

yeah, them white liberals sure are white haters.

All that science and analysis is so much while liberal bull****. Nah, its all nonsense motivated by political partisanship. Why they even claim its an "unconscious" social advantage. the nerve.
 
Re: What is white privilege?

Poor, poor whitey.

No need to feel bad for me. I’m beyond grateful I don’t assume things about people based solely on their skin color like you do.
 
Re: What is white privilege?

Not as many white people have “white privilege” as these people would want you to think. They seem to think that economics don’t apply to white people, the sky opens up and money appears from nowhere. I hate to break it to those people but that doesn’t happen for most white people. Most white people with money work like dogs. The average small business owner works like 80 hours a week. These people going on about white privilege have a point in some cases but for the vast majority it simply isn’t true. Economics doesn’t care about skin color, nobody wants to give anyone anything unless they have something to gain from it. That is the law of the land and it always will be.

Who calls everyone and everything racist? You.

Who claims calling everyone and everything racist renders the word meaningless? You.

I'm sensing a pattern and agenda.
 
Re: What is white privilege?

That really is your goal, isn't it. Pathetic bigoted horsecrap.

You'll find no bigotry in my posts.
Project much, my friend?

I'm sorry you don't like my views where I come right to the point when I separate the race baiters and their ilk from the tolerant.
 
Re: What is white privilege?

If you haven’t seen all sorts of hateful comments directed toward whites people, it’s because you don’t want to.

Comments where? By whom?
Examples?

Tell me why whites hold blacks down but don't hold any other races back. Your argument seems really contrived to fit in with your socialist world view.

Only racists deny white privilege.
 
Re: What is white privilege?

White liberals apologizing for their privilege are making Blacks to be victims because much of this is political, happening right before a presidential election. Blacks are not victims. We had a Black president voted in by the majority, white people.

I will not deny that there are racist people in the world but there are some, like the white leftists who are using race as a

No one is, or needs to apologize for having a privilege that is innate.

Acknowledging it exists, is just simple logic, based on facts.
 
Re: What is white privilege?

I was in the USA three years ago and I got the impression that there are less than half of the whites there. In addition to black people, there are many chinese, arabs, japanese, people from India, from Pakistan, from Iran.
It is strange why many poor people of different nationalities coming to the United States improve their lives, why cannot blacks do this?

Re: What is white privilege?

Get in the 21st century!
Nobody owns Blacks.

Tell that to your buddy conservative. Who suddenly thinks things changed. Forgetting whites owned black people 150 yrs ago.
But to your fellow conservative, suddenly things changed. LOL.

White privilege affects all races. Here in America, where 13% of the population were slaves, it's especially egregious against black people.

Have you never had a class in sociology at all? Not even in high school?


I'm fiscally conservative, pro gun and a hawk. I served as a paratrooper. So your "socialist" name calling is pathetic and moronic bs. We shouldn't be surprised. Someone ignorant enough to deny white privilege is certainly ignorant enough to rely on strawmanning their opponents. Can you go any lower?

I acknowledge it is not my fault that there are some really bad people in the world.
 
Re: What is white privilege?

When you have authority & power to validate the blackness of people, or not , then you have reached the mountaintop of supremist White Privilege .black.webp
BIDEN 3030!

Nobody has forgotten that white people once owned blacks as slaves. Most of us got beyond the eighth grade.

No what’s incredibly “convenient” is to claim it’s racist to deny being racist. Let me ask you this though, if there are so many racist murdering cops, why were so many people comfortable and confident to burn and loot and even physically attack cops? I mean, if there is this large swath of cops just looking for an excuse to kill, why weren’t people more fearful of giving them that excuse?
