Thanks for reading my post history. Maybe you can include it in some of your teachings like that SJW teacher at LSU.
Are my "demons" actually demons if IDGAF about them? Seems like I would have to care for them to bother me. Consult your color by numbers Herbie Fully Loaded book, and let me know.

I can get on board with this but on a worldwide scale, white people are treated much more better than other races.
because white people have developed the best cultures the earth has ever seen and we've become prosperous for this reason. add in the in group identification and you're going to have that and there is nothing you can do about it except try to tear down those successful cultures (which is what many SJWs are actively trying to do)

Also, I really don't give a frick if I'm banned because it's become apparent that when a black man voices his opinion on discrimination that doesn't fit a white narrative he's being too aggressive or narrow-minded, but the moderators don't give a shite when white people make little snide, subtle racist remarks about blacks on this site
Somewhat racist remarks have gotten more people banned than porn. But that doesn't help your victimhood.

That's not what white privilege means.
Would you trade the way you're treated in your every day life for the way the average black person on your same level, socially or economically? Yes or no.
No.
But privilege is situational. A guy can't cry or flirt his way out of a speeding ticket. So in that situation, there's female privilege. If a scholarship is set up for minorities, then that situation is an example of minority privilege. If I don't get followed around a store, that might be an example of white privilege.

Aren't privileges usually granted as a reward for right behavior? So, if a culture feels like they lack the privileges of another, maybe they should look within themselves?

THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS WHITE PRIVILEGE!!!! Yes I was yelling frick the board yelling police. It is a filthy disgusting lie created by disgusting progressive liberal un-American douchebag buttfrick traitors like Pelosi, Reid, Clinton, and fringe piece of shite hate monger criminal groups like "black lives matter" ( how frickING stupid by the way) and filthy pieces of race baiting criminal scum Al Sharpton, who, by the way, should be shot in the face on sight for being a filthy criminal racist lying traitor. fricking white liberal uneducated a-hole SJW douchebags acting like they feel bad over having " white privilege" need to be bent over in public and fricked in the arse with a rusty tire iron. (Sigh). So, does that give you a little material to talk to your "friend" about the non existent phenomenon created by fringe whacko piece of shite liberal kooks?

I agree but no one said that white culture didn't work for that privedge. It's still privilege nonetheless, no?

Maybe. I'd need to know more than just race and status
Nothing about you changes, only the way you're treated on a daily basis.
I know I wouldn't trade being treated like a white male for any other race or gender. I also think that's a fairly obvious statement.

yes but it's more than just a simple identification of privilege by race
which is why i said describing issues in terms of "black disadvantage" is more reflective of the realities we face

90% of this thread would choose to be white over black and any other race. So there goes your answer.
I don't think this proves anything. This is more of how comfortable are you being who God created you.
Most white golfers of the late 90's/early 2000's idolized Tiger Woods. That's who they wanted to be. Would that prove "black privilege?"
I love sports and an amazed at how skilled so many black athletes are. They have "it" all but I wouldn't trade my simple, modest lifestyle for theirs.

quote:Exactly, and I'm glad as a white person, I don't have that issue.
one big issue is the image of "black culture" or just the POV of large portions of black people in the US
quote:You're missing the point, obviously. My point is, hell you touched on it above, some upstanding black citizens are treated poorly based on the exact group of black people you talked about.
is it really some terrible thing to have a negative, protective response to engaging with a person who has purposefully chosen to appear to be part of the most violent subgroup in the US?
So, in a sense, I think you kinda admitted in that statement that white privilege does exist and you would not want to trade the way you're treated as a white male, so I think you're on my side.

I really got screwed over if white privilege does exist.

Amazing, the Asians who came over and were put to shitty tasks and jobs seemed to overcome and prosper, while being forced into camps during WW2. The Hispanics are carving their niche into America, So what happened?????
What's the excuse for the black community

I definetely agree with you and when talking about races on a worldwide scale, white people are at the top of the totem pole and blacks are at the bottom, while all other races are inbetween.

If more young black people thought as I did, we would be in a much better position as a race.
But by all means, attack another black person with a racial epithet. No white person has ever called me a coon.
Spare me the bullshite Horatio Alger, rags to riches, pull yourself up by the boot straps rhetoric. You come from a nuclear family, and you're stating white privilege is of no relevance? Hmmm maybe you should reflect on that thought process a little longer. Being privileged passing judgment on the underprivileged makes you look like a sanctimonious prick. I don't care how successful you are, in their eyes you will always be reduced to your skin color or is your resume of accolades and family pedigree tattooed on your forehead?
