  1. I've never bought into it. Probably because I grew up around white people who were poor and far from privileged in any way. Like most of the poor in this or most countries. I don't find you to be sincere in the slightest in any "hope" you might have for me. After all, I'm one of those evil white people who owns everything and shares nothing.

    Keep acting as if white privilege really means white people are evil in some way then. Really seems to be working for you :p
    No wonder you have trouble with the concept if you perceive it to be about that.

    And really, that there are also plenty of poor white americans and trailer trash etc. doesn't render it bogus either. So yes, for your sake i would hope you're just kidding. For the rest here I hope not. Too many people seem to deliberately misportray and distort reality and eachothers content lately. It's a real drag on serious convo.

    Utah didn't get banned from Global entry, and Trump didn't state that New York needed to comply with administration guidelines for sharing immigration data. He said "New York must stop all of its unnecessary lawsuits & harrassment".

    Words from the horses mouth aren't conspiracy my friend.

    Privilege isnt just about money
     
  5. Right, it's about skin color too. Which is of course absolutely ridiculous. And yet, here we are with it.

    Not that I expect it to be an election 2020 issue.

    I’m seeing Governor Cuomo today at The White House. He must understand that National Security far exceeds politics. New York must stop all of its unnecessary lawsuits & harrassment, start cleaning itself up, and lowering taxes. Build relationships, but don’t bring Fredo!"

    It's about the protestant white majority (or is it still the majority) that had a privileged role in american society all history. There are still remnants of it today. You find the idea alone preposterous apparently.

    White privilege is a racist concept invented by white leftists to make themselves feel superior to non-whites and other white folks.

    it minimizes the struggles of poor white people, and white people who have experienced racism in their own upbringing

    And it’s designed to make non-whites feel inferior and embrace victimhood culture.

    White privilege is a very racist idea

  11. It's not about faith. It's about skin color and the racists who make broad, sweeping assumptions about it.

    Watching white leftists trying to cleanse themselves of their white guilt would be so funny if it wasn’t heavily dividing racial relations in public society
     
  13. It's a free-standing distortion of facts already, a bigoted assumption that people have an advantage specifically because of color. It negates anything else they achieved on their own.

    It can be abused as such but it is not how this concept came to be. It's more so that a certain kind of white people has trouble acknowledging there still is some white privilege left. Others are just maintaining the conviction that the white privilege is normal because the country was founded by them.

    You're taking a similar approach as when white people criticize their own history others put that as self hate or a hate against their own race... It's quite pathetic.

    I'm not saying it is about faith. It's about the group that was privileged for the longest time in american society. That they were protestant christian is another aspect of that group.

    Isnt it odd how the same people who want to deny the existence of racism against minorities are the first to play victim and cry racism against white people

    Thanks to hipforums for never letting me forget that the white male is the most persecuted demographic in america

    This is why the insult snowflake has been appropriated. It really applies best on those folks.

    Snowflake isn’t an accurate metaphor for a leftist. That would imply that they are all unique and special
