re: Privilege is a LIE

Even if you buy the concept of "White Privilege" as it is offered, so-called "white societies" are just the accumulated result of lots of hard work and ingenuity.
If there is a "white privilege" where white societies do better it isn't because the others just decided that would be so, it is because the white societies are better and the only way for any of the others to catch up is to guilt the white ones into committing societal suicide.
People who clamor for high inheritance taxes and/or argue that rich men's kids don't deserve their inheritance any more than anybody else are just another strain of the failed liberal losers who are always looking for a cut of other peoples' money.

This is not true in real world applications. Simply look at inner city schools to know it is just a fabrication used to justify those that have achieved moderate success.
And it was also not what I'm taking in regards to my reply to the op. He was patting himself on the back for having fault money from a father that wired hard. Not everyone has a father.

Technically everyone does have a father. They may be dead, or absentee, but they have a father. Two eggs and no sperm didn't create that baby.

I don't think you know how this works. Some fathers just decide not to raise their children. And then liberals decide to not blame them and instead tell the kids that were raised be responsible parents to feel guilty because of their parental privelege. It's ludicrous, but who can be surprised by a political party that believes in 33 genders.

9 pages and nobody is going to call the OP out on obvious bullshite? Why? Because it fits a narrative.

So my father decided to be murdered?

And thanks government for trying to take half of his money via "estate tax".
This is also a lie. The first 5.45 million of an individuals estate is not subject to estate tax, and the rate after that is 40%. So it isn't mathematically possible for the government to take half of his estate.

No. Privilege is being born to a father that evidently is going to leave you with more than 5.45 million dollars.

I follow it. It obviously isn't popular because it's not the way we've been trained to think. Apparently, Americans believe they are entitled to what their parents have. But why? Because you happened to have been born to people with money? It doesn't make that much sense when you take the emotion out of it.
I can't say that I'll be donating my inheritance (if there is one) to the government someday, but I'm also not one of the people bitching and moaning about food stamps and medicaid.

This isn't what I believe. I believe that my parents should be able to do whatever they want with their money when they pass. I don't believe that that money should be taxed when it is transferred to either myself or any other person or organization.
I'll never understand why people believe that the government is entitled to some of that money.

No one's asking anyone to apologize. Simply to recognize that it exist and it does for better or worse determine the possible outcomes of one's life.
That fact that you recognize it is good enough. Your not obligated to do anything

point 1, I disagree. A Black person with enough sense to study and get a degree is literally picking a job. A Black person without a degree likely does face tougher obstacles.
Im not saying you are wrong, but thats way too idealistic. Most college grads (of every race) are having a tough time finding jobs. Better fields have it easier, but it's still tough if you don't have the network or the best interns. Also are we talking "real" jobs or any job?

If I were black and walked the same path I wouldn't be called privileged would I? See how it's bullshite?
I can't even take pride in what I've accomplished because of the color of my skin. But I think that's the point of the liberal left.

It isn't unless it's more than several million dollars.

Because the laws of this country that we all choose to live in dictate that it is. I find it hard to believe you don't already know this.

I'm white, my dad was a raging alcoholic, he nor anyone else, ever gave me anything but beatings and a hard time.
I grew up in the hood, had to basically educate myself and worked my arse off so I can support and educate my son and hopefully leave something behind for him.
But now I'm a privileged racist because I was born white.... ?
What a load of shite...

Other types of privilege:
Being given way more gubment jobs (Federal & State) than your percentage of the overall population because of race/ethnicity instead of the most qualified individuals being hired.
Being given quotas for college acceptance when you aren't qualified, as well as having your college paid for by the gubment.
Generations of welfare folks with satellite TV's, gubment phones, free food, free healthcare, new cars, etc. No incentive to work or get an education.
Getting a tax credit refund for more money from the gubment than you earned in a year.

Complete horseshite. In most cases the parents want the children to have their money upon their death. It has nothing to do with feeling entitled. You shitlibs want to remove that right from the deceased. Frick you. It's mine. I'll give it to who I damn well please.
