Privilege is a LIE

Yes, my family has money. They have it because my father worked his arse off. He in turn, left me a little. You call it privilege, I call it life. That's how life works. And thanks government for trying to take half of his money via "estate tax". You deserve it. You really do.
Privilege was me working every Saturday for 6 years while I was getting my business off the ground. Walking around neighborhoods trying to get business. Privilege doesn't give a rat's arse that I'm white. It cares that I did the work to become successful.

That your daddy helped with.
People have a problem with privileged people running the country to benefit themselves.. nobody dislikes a privileged person who minds their own fricking business or tries to pursue real and meaningful change.
Question: why do you deserve your fathers money more than the taxpayer/projects supported by tax dollars? You didn't earn it. You don't deserve it either.

Privilege exists in a lot of ways. We are all privileged to live in America regardless of all other varialbles, so this is just another way to silence and shame whites and especially white males.

A black kid with decent grades and average test scores can go anywhere they want college or grad school wise. The problem is that culturally education is undervalued and stupidity and ignorance are the norm.

It's original sin for secular leftists.
The regressive left is the religious right, in the end. It's known as "horseshoe theory."

the left's marketing of privilege is fricking retarded. They shouldnt have called it privilege, instead they should have used blessings.
wrap it up in christianity and the low information christians would suck that shite up.

My Father died last year. My business has been in existence for 20 years.
I guess this sort of shits all over that theory doesn't it?

Your whole story sounds fishy because you're white.

I'm not taking sides here - and I agree with your original point - but the fact that your father was alive for 19 years of your business' 20-year existence only lends credence to their point.

Well said!
It's not my fault my grandparents grew up on dirt floors during the depression. It's not my fault they viewed education and the military as a way off the farm. It's not my fault they worked their fingers to the bone to give my parents a better life. It's not my fault that work ethic has been passed through my parents to me, and it's not my kids' fault that I am passing it to them.
The lazy call it privilege, because they want an excuse to sit on their arse and do nothing and have someone to blame for not enjoying the finer/better things in life.
I don't blame Trump's kids for being fabulously more wealthy than me either.

Except the left's whole use of "privilege" is to try and guilt whites into accepting deficient behaviors/lifestyles/etc.... and paying for them.
Using blessings wouldn't really guilt "low information christians" wouldn't really accomplish that as a blessing is a gift from god.
Also, could you possibly be more smug?

If he couldn't figure that out himself his father probably played a huge role in his success story

Great question and I'll tell you why I deserve it. Did the government come over and paint the house, cut the grass, fix stuff around the house when he got cancer? Nope, I did. Did the government sit by his side day and night while he was in hospice? No, I did.
But I'll tell you what they did do. They refused to pay for hospice after 12 days because he wasn't dying fast enough for them.
You have any other questions?

It's so much easier when shortcomings aren't your fault though
The fact that minorities hold every job title in almost every city shows the biggest thing holding some back is the idea that something is holding them back
Good luck finding a population large enough to be classified as a city that doesn't AA doctors and lawyers. Find a state without AA politicians. The president of the United States is an AA as well if no one has noticed
When these successful minorities raise families is it unethical to put their children in a position to succeed? What are they supposed to do?
