No it doesn't. You are assuming that all white people have those privileges. So you think white people who are white trash (they look dirty, they have old clothes on, hearing them talk you know right away they are uneducated.. They act like jackasses in public) receives certain privileges that are more than anyone from another race?

So if I went to two different places.. The first place I dressed dirt poor, acted like I never been in public before and talked as if I lacked education, I would be treated the same as I would if I went to the second place dressed in expensive clothes, conducted myself in away I know what is appropriate to do what and when.. in public and sounded as if I was educated?

No, they're the result of 8 years of socialist control on the Educational system. These kids are just regurgitating what their leftist professors are preaching to them, supported and bolstered by online ideologues.

Where the hell do you bank/ apply for a loan where white people are automatically given whatever they want with 0 credit check or questions and black people have to hand over their Financials before any discussions take place?

That's what I'm saying. No one has ever lender me shite because of my good looks. And how often do you ever apply for credit in face anymore?

Why can you do that? What gives you that ability? You have history with the bank? Or you just call and say youre white?

You don't think there's one minority anywhere who could call your bank and get a secured loan? If Oprah called them, they'd say no, sorry, you're a minority?

You make a good point, though this doesn't happen very often so it is not relevant.

Reality Check:

These two guys walk into your loan office. What do you assume about the credit worthiness of either applicant?

Yes. I can.

A non-governmental example would be the Rooney Rule. Ever heard of it?

So you're assuming that because you, a rich trust fund kid, can get a quick loan that every other white person in America can do the same?

Oh yeah, let's forget all the wonderful shenanigans that went down in WWII.

And do you think that the average American is fond of Indian culture? Why are they so damn successful when they move here?

Ok they haven't faced the same magnitude of racism but they (my Indian self included) do face racism.
How you going to tell me poor whites are more privileged than rich or even upper middle class blacks? There are whites that have never been given anything for free and have worked hard for everything they have earned. By saying they are privileged is an insult to their hard work and achievements. I feel people use "white privilege" as more of an excuse than anything else.

when you apply for the loan and your credit score is unknown, the lender is likely to assume that you will have credit issues.



What kind of loan are we talking about? No one, white or black, is getting a loan without a credit score.. Depending on the loan..

Affirmative action in the United States is a set of laws, policies, guidelines, and administrative practices "intended to end and correct the effects of a specific form of discrimination."[1] These include government-mandated, government-sanctioned, and voluntary private programs that tend to focus on access to education and employment, specifically granting special consideration to historically excluded groups such as racial minorities or women.

It cannot be disputed that African Americans will have to work harder than similarly situated whites. I didn't say some whites don't work hard, but blacks will have to work harder.

Is there a reason you only address the sentences in posts that you have canned answers for and you ignore any post that actually challenges your agenda?
