    No no no nono! You have it all wrong. It's not about the history. It's about the lack of history. We need to make a common history between Irish and Somalians.

    Yeah, you said something about redistributing good looks and skin color that by your tone sounds like it's meant as a sarcastic jibe at liberals but whose total lack of context makes it little more than gibberish . In Hell we call that babbling, what do you call it up there on Earth?

    white privilege is the bi-product of racism and racism is a serious issue for american society.

    He probably thinks I'm a tall bi-pedaled sub-canine with opposable thumbs that always has food. AKA God.

    You don't even have to think about it. That proves that it does indeed exist. Tell me. If I offered you $1 million to live the rest of your life as a Black person would you accept my offer?

    I've had White posters on other message boards tell me that they were glad they were born White. They know that life is easier in the USA with White skin. Some Whites want Blacks and other people of color to think there is no benefit associated with White skin; that way they can keep the status quo.

    most people are proud of the race they are and are glad to be it

    if one doesn't like their own skin, it would make life suck

    like the white women that wanted to be black, or a black man that wants to be white

    when people talk white privilege, what they really mean is rich privilege... cause a poor white person doesn't get all the privileges a rich person would

    it exists, sort of

    white privilege is being treated better because your white... yes, white racists will treat you better if your white

    black privilege is being treated better because your black... yes, black racists will treat you better if your black

    most people just want to live their lives and do not really care much about people they do not know... regardless of race, that is just a reality

    Me too. If your not a good person then I don't like you. If a person blames me for something I did not do then I probably won't like them. Attack and I will defend.

    I stopped reading after this. It's already racist and ridiculous. I can tell you right now what the rest of it says. Something to the effect of, "Feel guilty for the way you were born that you had no control over. Waste your entire lives making amends for things you didn't do. And always remember that everyone else is your victim and there is nothing you can do about it. Pity me! PITY ME!!!!!"

    Don't address me as a "White Man". The only purpose of doing that is to spread division and hate and I think you folks have done enough of that. Address me as a "Human", or an "American" or as a "Californian". I think we have all had it with the hateful vile you folks keep puking all over this country.

    Probably thinks I'm a slow two legged subdog with incredible intelligence and very useful opposable thumbs.

    Why do you think east Asians have lower crime rates if they are experiencing racism and shee'it?

    Native Americans mistook the first white settlers as living gods and worshipped them like deities. The very concept of white privilege comes from the same old mindset to admire whites excessively and ethnic minorities need to overcome this loser mentality. Otherwise, many Americans would be mentally enslaved to the legacies of racism of the country for good.

    My favorite part is where this idiot admits that he's just making (*)(*)(*)(*) up, and it's all about a "white privilege studies" (really?!) propagandist creating an inescapable sense of white guilt. This guy should kill himself immediately.

    Ah yes, the myth of "white privelege " based on a cartoon fantasy version of history. Delusion is alive and well.

    It wasn't a wish on his part. It was just an observation. And my son doesn't hate anybody based on their race. He has White, Hispanic, East Indian friends, etc.

    It usually is interesting reading white people's view of the history of interactions between Europeans and Indigenous Americans. What is way up the interesting list is their view that all whites were identical to each other and all NAs were identical to each other - and for a period of time covering over 3 centuries.
