They also ignore other populations in america. Its pretty funny.


This is what I dont understand.

This ignores the success of other minority groups in America, such as Indians (dot not feather) who don't fall into this victim mentality.

They aren't white skinned, they don't hold traditional western values, they don't have normal "easy to say" names...yet they seem to get along just fine.

And this is ignoring Asians (which can really include Chinese, Japanese and Koreans) who also dealt with some awful persecution in America back in the day and don't play the victim/privilege card.

Obama became president TWICE. What can't blacks do in this country?

I accept white privilege with pride.. The self pity people consume themselves with in an effort to appease race relations is a phenomenon that is mind numbingly irritating.

And I'd trade it all for some rhythm and a 10" cock.

Mostly agree with the list and I'm not surprised that it's not popular here.

19. Electing a black guy to be president only because he is black hurts the country more and does nothing to help the black community.

The problem is that someone was bothered enough by these facts to make a list about it in the first place. All men are created equal. Equal in the eyes of God and their government. However, we are all different. We look different, act different, have different personalities, appearances, skills, talents, experiences, ect. The key is to find your talents, to find your advantages and exploit them. Know who you are and take pride in it. Never forget what you are. Take pride in it, armor yourself with it, and no one will ever be able to use it to hurt you.

Think of the guy who embarrassed himself big time in high school. Once he made a joke of it and lived up to it, it didn't hurt him anymore. Race is never truly a disadvantage. Race is merely an appearance. People can only disparage you and hold you back IF YOU LET THEM!

On the other hand, the Vice-President of the United States has made demeaning remarks about them on multiple occasions and got away with it. That's a clear sign that they aren't accepted as Americans. There's also the open and unapologetic racism the Democrats directed at Jindal and Haley.

All of the black people I personally know of this mind set are angry, bitter people who blame every personal shortcoming on their race while being vociferous proponents of the culture that has failed them. They fail to see the culture as the problem instead of the race. Because if the culture is the problem, they have control over their existence and can't play the blame game any longer.

6. White Privilege is having the prevalence and importance of the English language and finding amusement in ridiculing people of colour/immigrants for their accents and their difficulty in speaking a language that is not their native tongue.


My wife's family came here in the '20's from Italy. They speak English, not their native language, fine just one generation later.

If your ancestors came here via slavery prior to 1860, and you have not mastered the language, well that is on you. DWI!

And while that phenomenon exists, white European immigrants get just as much flak for their accents and their quirky syntax as Hispanics and Asians. Black African and black Caribbean immigrants aren't all that common.

The article was written by Macy Sto. Domingo:




Her bio says she's "a 22-year-old Filipino girl, raised in New Zealand and now living in Germany trying to figure out life as a 20-something."

On her Pinterest page she calls herself a "genderless creature which dwells in the middle of nowhere "





This girl is a far, far left wacko.

So, I have never been able to figure out what is to be done about white privilege? Stop being white?

What is the solution?

I have seen people say that if you try and help others and fight against racism, it is because of white privilege. So, no matter what you do, white privilege.

Maybe the solution is just for all white people to either leave America or die/go away.
