What is white privilege?

White privilege is serving your country, receiving an honorable discharge, working a full time job, paying your taxes and when work gets slack you get laid off, then you go to apply for food stamps, get denied, re apply, then you and your full time student wife get approved for a whopping $9 per month. Don't tell me about any bull $#*! called "white privilege"!

 

Sue me.

 

Except that Affirmative Actions is a skin and gender based. White privilege has nothing to do with pale skin. It is about language and culture.

 

This is the typical bull(*)(*)(*)(*) excuse people make when they don't wanna acknowledge that whites in America always get it easier no matter what the situation is.

Only a real dumbass thinks this (*)(*)(*)(*) isn't real.

 

Bud, these are real events that happened to me.

 

Also white privilege includes not having an entire race be held responsible for a specific incident. Every black person is somehow judged as a lazy gutter Negro if one black person does something. Every Latino is labeled a dirty immigrant or drug lord if only one is. Every Arab or Muslim is labeled a terrorist if one gets found guilty of something, and in all these cases the entire race is held responsible for the actions of a few regardless of anything.

However one white kid shoots up a church or school and he's hit with the luxury of lone wolf, mentally ill, needs help and the white race is NEVER held responsible for it at all.

Doesn't mean white privilege doesn't exist.

 

Not all whites owned slaves, yet some feel reparations should be paid by all whites.

 

What is.

Because I'm white right? That's racist.

That isn't because I'm white. Actually because people offering jobs are supposed to take others ahead of me. It's called affirmative action.

What in the hell is a black name and a white name?

Well I'm not so sure that it does. I think this is just people blaming their problems on others. My bro list his job in the oil field. He hasn't been able to get another one. He actually blames the president. It's really strange.

Prove thus crap exists or it's just excuses.

 

Really, the government. But let's not act like people are quick to blame minorities for one incident but take their absolute precious time doing the same if a white kid kills his classmates in school.

 

I don't think "blankets" should be cast over any group.

 

That is a self imposed injury which has been discussed in here before.

 

I notice you conveniently ignored this part of what Polydectes said, about the "Oreo" insult of successful blacks:

If success means you have betrayed your culture, Than your culture detests success and brainwashes people into believing this.

 

I need to find some of that white privilege.

 

Black privilege has more power then white privilege because black privilege is a real law.
E.g. white immigrant has to pay for privileges of black immigrant even though neither of them has anything to do with racism or slavery.

 

White privilege... it's a fact that it exists. The OP gives examples.
It aint some believe or fictional thing in the mind.

No. 1 person with it's experience is never an indicator how life is in general.

The OP states that using a name of a typical white person gives you 50% more chance to get invited for a job.
And that is how it is, despite affirmative action here and there. White privilege is that real.

You first don't got a clue what an invitation for a job interview is/how you get it. And now you don't know what a white or a black name is. This aint school. I aint your teacher.

When you get discriminated because your name is not white enough to get invited for a job interview. Than the blame is indeed at those people who apply those policies, that make the black people the victims of white privilege. Obviously.

 

You really like being dead horses don't you?

I said in response to you that off course it exists. That also doesn't mean it wasn't manifested within people's minds.

Unless they're black. That's still racist.

I am still scratching my head. I know dental people that happen to be darker completed but I really can't think of how their names reflect their complexion.

So again what is the difference between a typical white person's name and a typical black person's name?

What is the difference?

I still don't know how you devine whether somebody is black or white based on a name. So if that is what you are basing it on its pretty weak sauce.

First it's "You first don't have a clue..." not you don't got a clue. That's just ignorance.

If your goal is to discredit me by saying I don't have a clue don't use broken English to do so.

No, I really don't. I've heard African names. But those aren't very common in the United states. Besides people with African names aren't always black.

For instance I know a fellow named Stanley Williams. What is his race? I know a lady named Emily Rodgers. What is her race?

Give me an understanding of what a black name is, I find the idea that one race of people stick to a certain name within the culture, racist.

Obviously you have utterly flunked at proving a claim. So far it's me trying to understand something and you jerking me around with racist platitudes.

Sorry I didn't realize there was a crisis among people who originated from Japan, China and Vietnam being unemployed. But than again I live in the Saigon district.

I don't know how you could apply a policy based on a name sounding black. Most black people in the United states have very European names. So you wouldn't be able to tell the blacks from the whites based on names.

So you aren't really pointing out white privilege. Your existing your racism.

 

Yeah, it absolutely does, because the instant there are many exceptions to "white privilege," and there are millions, the phrase becomes just another form of racism exactly like "Jewish Greed," "Black Stupidity," "Mexican Laziness." The only difference is that saying obnoxious, racist BS like "White Privilege" is sanctioned by the gov-edu-union-contractor-grantee-MSM Complex and other forms of vile racism are not.

Anyone who uses the phrase "white privilege" as a real thing, or advocates that it is a real thing is just another dumbass racist POS "out there" in the rectum of America.

 

I'd say it's the culture we grew up in. I'm actually mixed race but I am considered white. I was raised in a culture that didn't place much emphasis on my pigment. My grand parents uncle's, aunts, and cousins all are different colored people. But it was never really important to my identity that my skin was fare. And because of the lack of xenophobia there was never any pressure put on me to act like a certain race. Thus I find it a little amusing when people refer to me as a coconut, or a banana.

I didn't have people telling me I'm an uncle Tom for going to a university and studying things that aren't suited to my pigmentation. For that I feel privileged. There isn't an imaginary bogeyman holding me back.

I was able to over come my adversity having never been programmed that my skin color is my identity.

 

Its all a myth, everyone has always been treated equally in this country.

 

Glad you brought that up. Blacks are excellent when it comes to sports and are marketable for white profit, and Blacks get their best exposure through public schools where everyone can attend. Which is exactly what happened for O.J. But, you couldn't get access to that profit, if "who" you were using didn't profit from it as well. That is one of the few things Blacks have over white's, without having the power and money that comes with White privilege.

Music and dance is another natural talent many of them have, that just cannot be ignored.

So no, to answer your question, Blacks acquire privilege through White's, by means of raw talent.

 

Otherwise known as the "TRUTH", where white people choose to play the denial game

 

White privilege is just as damaging to millions of white's in this country.

 

White privilege doesn't discriminate. It goes after everyone. And particularly Blacks!

 

You're getting off the real message. Whether all white's owned slaves has nothing to do with the price of apples. This is about recognizing White privilege as a problem since the beginning of the slave days, and continues until today as a different form of bondage, that White's ignore.

 

How exactly is this self imposed
