    Its PRIVILEGE, not INVULNERABILITY. Use a dictionary.

    Who gives a damn what color hide you were born with, question is, what have you done with yourself since that day?

    I agree with you, but I don’t know what one could expect when members of government are trying go ignore the voices of the people. If Republicans had voted on Obama’s pick this wouldn’t be happening, if trump had nominated a moderate this wouldn’t be happening. But Republicans know their party is in decline and the only way to force their unwanted views is through the courts.

    We are in an ideological war, and I am glad that Democrats are beginning to see it as such.

    In this crazy age of 'woke scolds', 'virtue signaling' & '3rd wave feminism' - tis my ilk that seems to have been (unjustifiably) bequeathed the unmerited role of "privilege"... imho - take for example, gold digging / opportunist - Kamala Harris (eye roll)

    - Ilhan Ohmar
    - Rashida Talib
    - Mazi Hirono

    etc. etc. I'm sure they are meritoriously superior... guffaw - guffaw.... Biden saying that 'need not apply' for SCOTUS / VP unless you are black... what is that about?

    I don't know what you're talking about. My white skin trumps Kamala's status, wealth, and position by a long shot. Pretty sure I can call her up and tell her to disappear from politics and the public spotlight. I'm a full fledged member of the 'Systemic Racism Society'...so it's my privilege to do such things.

    You are delusional. Your self-loathing is well earned.

    So you'd agree that the term 'white privilege' is a misnomer?

    Nice, impressive neuroticism.

    I'm white, I self loath -100%. I have no delusions about the anti-white hate propagated in today's culture.

    You should invest in your own human capital and you might self-loath less.

    You are also self-confused: "anti-white hate" is a double negative demonstrating 'book-learning' loathing.

    It also means they come from shithole countries that are so incompetent that a stable life environment cannot be created.

    I'm a Trump fan (as you so eloquently phrased it...) I'm not angry. I imagine if I based my view of around half the country, on a general stereotype, I might be angry too! I wont even bother, backhandedly implying others are "wayciss" I will leave that low hanging "fruit" to some others.

    White privilege is a thing, but the left often takes it too far.

    It gets to a point when they just claim that legitimate grievances are no longer legitimate if they are made by a white person. I mean I've seen far leftist claim that under the exact same circumstances with the only difference being skin color that issue is important in the issue is not important


    But that doesn't mean that there are not white people who complain about b******* while ignoring actual suffering by minorities.
