Is, "white male privilege," a slur equivelent to the N word???

Is telling a white male he has, "white male privilege," today a slur equivelent to calling an African American the, "N," word when African Americans were discriminated against????

 

It's what ever you want it to be, it's your privilege

 

No.

How many White males were lynched by mobs of angry Blacks and other minorities shouting "White Male Privilege" at them?

You're being ignorant of history by even trying to equate the two.

 

I use it as an insult.

 

There are better insults IMO. Like Albion.

 

Do shootings, robberies, knock-out games or drive-bys count?

Although.... "White male privilege" is a lot of syllables.

 

Maybe you should offer the definition of white male privilege?

 

So calling someone a city in Michigan is an insult?

 

I'd bet dollars-to-donuts more Whites are called a racial slur as they're being attack by Blacks than Blacks are called a racial slur and attacked by Whites.

 

Of course. The old "you (or someone vaguely related to you) supposedly did something bad (executing a rapist supposedly) one time 100 years ago to someone vaguely related to me so that excuses my crimes" trick. Very effective.

Also the words used when attacking a person are obviously in themselves the problem and should be banned. Words like "(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)", and "the".

 

No.

...........

 

no one has said to me "you're just expressing white male privilege" or "check your white privilege".

if they did, I'd call them a racist about one inch from their filthy, stinky face.

 

This is a stupid race baiting thread.

 

The only privilege there is by law is to be a non-white. They are the ones getting the jobs and protected by the government.

 

all white people are unemployed?

 

White privledge is a real thing that exists.

White people (myself included) almost never have to deal with racist non-white people in power.

Non Whites have to deal with racist white people in power often. It's becoming less often, but it's still much more often than white people have to deal with.

Just wondering if someone's interaction with you was determined by race, is an obstacle that must be overcome. This is something that white people rarely ever have to deal with.

White privledge also includes the fact that white people's grandparents and their grandparents grandparents had access to education, employment, and other rights that a non-white's ancestors likely did not have access to. This puts the starting line for many whites ahead of most non-whites.


White privledge is real.

White privledge doesn't end go away when racism goes away, it lingers for generations.


White privledge is something that's it's really hard for white people (like me) to understand without getting defensive.

White privledge isn't my (or other white people's) fault, but I (and all whites) benefit from it's existence.

 

Thank you, thank you, thank you. This is one of the most honest posts I've read on this forum.

 

You aren't protected by the govt? Did someone take away your rights as a citizen? Did a Black person take away your job? Please elaborate.

 

most white people I know are doing just fine.

as long as they work hard.

but of course, if you don't work hard, life is gonna suck

 

Naahh. If anything, White Privilege is the ability to not be insulted by any racial insult. Call me an Ofay cracker if you like, I'll just think it's funny.

The only true racial insult for a white person is to call them a racist. Whitey can't handle that and will break down crying on the Today Show.

 

Quite possibly.

 

Like white males are given opportunities simply because they are white males and not because of merit. Kind of like affirmative action for white males.

 

No,it's more of a lie.

Propaganda in action.

"I'm an egalitarian."

Awful decent of you to admit in public you have no sense of judgement.

 

A better question would be "How many whites have been attacked,beaten,raped,and/or killed by angry blacks and other minorities because they have been led to believe that everything is just given to white people and are jealous of this false privilege?

Ever heard of the "knock out game",Bubba?

 

"White people (myself included) almost never have to deal with racist non-white people in power. "

Ever hear of a guy named Obama?

Holder?

Jesse Jackson?

Al Sharpton?
