Everyone who has tried has only explained class privilege. Has class privilege been rebranded to fit the agenda?

Everything you have was handed to you because you are white.

If you are black and you don't have anything, it's because the white people have it all.

Doesn't matter if you were born white trash from Appalachia, and still are..you are the bad guy and guilty..watch your back.

Being born Lebron Jr, Berry Gordy Jr, Will Smith and Jada's kid, Rev Run's kids, etc..no such privilege..can walk society freely..will not be attacked and drug from your car.

You are supposed to feel guilty for being born the way you were (white) and give away all your posessions and become a minority's bitch.

Sure... it's both:

A) Disagreeing with a libtard

Or

B) Refusing to cave to a spoiled left wing minority's demands for entitlement and preferential treatment.

Doesn't matter if you grew up poorer than dirt and were sold into prostitution at the age of 4, if you're white, you have white privilege.

Because this is the reality. I've been lucky and had breaks throughout my life. It's because I was lucky to be born to great parents and I value the image I put off. I keep myself together at all times.

People are attracted to that. They give people the benefit of the doubt when they look and act like they care. Which I do. I take the time to care about people. And I'll keep getting treated well. I treat others well and get treated well.

My skin doesn't matter. I'm very lucky to be born to parents who do well. And I care.

IMO, that is what white privilege is.

It's when the weather is perfect,and I drive My 25 year old Trooper to Fred's Dollar Store,to pick up some sugar and tea bags. I park beside a brand new BMW that I know belongs to the manager there.
I walk into the store and everybody working there is black,and all know me. They smile and say hello,and all the other greetings,and I try to say something funny.
I grab my stuff and pay for it,and tell them all to have a good day,see y'all tomorrow..

Maybe that's it?

Brad Pitt was born poor Mizzou guy? Just that God blessed him like Ronaldo, with Adonis genes, and an inherent elite life skill to be developed to boot..

Arod, Brady, Clooney, Cary Grant, Rick Fox, etc..lucky bastards! Yet all created their own luck by hard work.

If you are white, you have it. It's a lottery ticket in life that colored people like Lebron James and Kevin Hart wish they had so they could make something of themselves.

And don't forget about white privilege affecting the criminal justice system as well (see OJ, Cosby, Winston, Woods, Bryant, etc).

"White privilege" is on side of the coin whose other side is 'black inferiority.' It's the same coin used by slavers in the past - only they emphasized the obverse.

Anyone dealing with this coin is advancing the idea that blacks are an inferior race and it is OK to treat them 'differently.' Four hundred years ago use of this coin justified taking blacks as slaves and using them as chattel. Today, use of this coin justifies the notion that blacks are to be treated as pets - used for advancing ones personal desires - whether it be for useful purposes like a guard dog or a hunting dog, for 'cool/showl' purposes like a Maltese or a Pomeranian, for attack purposes like a pit bull or mastiff, etc. As long as you treat your pet right the SPCA will stay away from your door.

This coin is just as debilitating to the advancement of the black race now as it was 400 years ago. It erodes the very souls of blacks who fall victim to its lure of being protected from the vicissitudes of life's realities. They become content to be the pet of a 'greater presence' and its not surprising that they too often turn into an undisciplined pet - demanding constant attention to avoid incessant barking and crapping all over the carpet.

'White privilege' should be met wth the same disgust as the concept of slavery.
