"White Privilege"

We (my family and church community) are actively engaged in trying to solve problems in Haiti.

We think we have a better chance there.

Fair enough. But arguing on the internet with people who will never change their mindset, while you yourself will never change your mindset seems pretty pointless to me. That's all I'm really trying to say.
 
We'll build a pyre...

:eek:

A Y-y-y-y-yuge pyre.

Democrats are more creative and impatient. They would pack them into that 6.5 square miles and after training Cory Booker, Maxine Waters, Keith Ellison, and Tom Perez to fly a B-52 they'd aim a 3 or 4 megaton nuclear device to explode 2000 feet above its center. ;)

What rights have you lost as a white man in your lifetime?

Name a single one.
 
He can't. But he's frightened in his boots about losing prestige and power over those he considers outside his tribe.

He never had any power or prestige. Women have never liked him, and he's a lonely old coward.

But it's not because he's white.
 
What is it? How does it work?

Hi, Ishmael.

I rarely engage in these discussions here. I freely admit that I don't possess the emotional or intellectual capacity (or energy) to do so. Apologies in advance for commenting at all if that annoys you. It's a subject of some interest and importance to me, though, so I'll risk the inevitable anal rape/public shaming I'm likely to endure...

In case you really are curious for another perspective, my opinion (as a stranger on the internet, who knows literally nothing about you, outside of what is posted in this thread) is that privilege works like this:

In reality I don't give a shit.

In the end I could have gone to court and I would have won.....period.

I discriminate all the time.

I rarely am [wrong].

After each of these remarks, my thought was: "Because you are white."

That's how privilege works. We (white people) benefit if we recognize it, and we benefit if we don't.

It appears to me (again, from the little I have read here) that another option available to you, as a person with sufficient emotional intelligence to do so, is to acknowledge that privilege exists, notice it, notice that you benefit from it, and choose not to be ruled by your personal reaction or emotional response to it.

If the privilege really is white then how come Asians have more of it in nearly every quantifiable category of what you consider a "privilege" that is exclusive only to white people??

So far the only privileges I've seen ID'd are following the law privileges, being well connected privilege and having lots of money privileges.

I've yet to see anyone identify any privileges that are distinctly white.

I'm not contesting the fact that the above minority groups often come across discrimination, especially in extreme R-wing America.
And these need to be addressed more pro actively, like Brian Stevenson or those who fight for equal pay for women do.

I'm just contesting the legitimacy of certain "anti- oppression SJW group. and movements".
Like the Evergreen College incident.

I'll just speak for myself. Here's a partial list of ways I have personally benefited from being white:

1. All the leadership, and almost all of my bosses, in nearly every organization I've ever worked for, have been white, like me.

2. All my teachers, most of my professors, were white, like me.

3. I've never once worried if maybe I didn't get that job, that loan, that apartment, that boy... because I'm white.

4. All my dolls, toys, and the "pretty girls" in magazines and on television growing up were white, like me.

5. I never once was arrested (or cited, or caught) doing the stupid shit most kids do at some point - jaywalking, trespassing, shoplifting, having sex in a parked car, loitering, possessing/smoking marijuana, speeding, etc..

6. When I travel outside the country for work in places where my whiteness makes me a minority, people often assume that I am a doctor, accommodate my wishes, give me the best chair, the best piece of chicken, free access to every/any place.

7. When I get angry or defensive I'm not dismissed as just another "angry black woman."

8. When I gather with other likeminded people and carry a sign that expresses my world view, I'm called a "protester" or an "activist" not a gangster, thug, rioter, or any other negative descriptor.

9. My parents never had "the talk" with me about how to stay safe (alive) in this world.

10. I feel like I could go on and on. I benefit in countless ways.

^Is any of that useful/relevant to your question?
 
... had been a Brother, the cop would have shot your ass stone cold dead on the spot for daring to even think about questioning him. And it would have been your family (if you have one) who would have been arranging the funeral.

You know for a fact the cop would kill him, huh? Someone who can predict the future could make a lot of money, dontcha think?

This post would have made a lot more sense if you changed semantics: "Because I'm not black or Latino".
Otherwise, your post implies that jews and asians face these problems too.


See? Your anti- white agenda is showing.

Reminded me of one. A black kid and I were walking to school one day, goofing off, being stupid school kids going to an integrated school. Sort of friends, more like acquaintances that just happened to catch up with each other that morning. We were passing some old abandoned houses slated for demolition. Two dumb kids picked up a few rocks and tossed them at the windows, breaking a few.

Got caught and called into the school office.

One kid got suspended from school. The other didn't.

Guess which one got which.
 
Tubby, I ceased talkin' TO you long ago. You forfeited the right to civil discussion quite a while back. .

Congratulations, FuckFace!

You are the first recipient of the Dick Daley Full of Shit Award for accusing others of things you do all the time.

Actually there isn't one single person on this website who comes close to spewing the vile, disgusting, hate filled poison that pours out of your mouth. The garbage you vomit is so repugnant that even describing the things you say is a violation of the so-called "Forum Guidelines for Non-leftists."

Now call Pukey and see if she can reel you back in. Oh, and start taking your meds again.

Asshole.

LOL you fucking troll. You don't think that Jews and Asians face discrimination and/or stereotypes? :rolleyes:

I predict you will continue to whine and bitch about Rob incessantly, and follow him around as devotedly as dishrag does, when not being fluffer to busybooby and gump.




Show me the money!

Accusing people of things you're guilty of is becoming a real habit of yours, isn't it?

Seems to me someone who refuses to answer a simple yes or no question because he'd embarrass himself is a coward, don't you agree?

I don't doubt that especially in R- wing red states many blacks still encounter racist attitudes, but times have changed and I bet that others no longer do.

Why should you paint all of them with the victim brush and attack whites, instead of focusing on the real victims?


My immigrant friends and rellies from the States encountered hostility and xenophobia from blacks and whites alike (and I hate to tell you, but more xenophobic attitudes from american blacks and kinship and support from black immigrants from Africa).
But they didn't start generalising or hating All american blacks because of a few morons.

Accusing a guy of sucking dick and defending Rob in one thread is pretty revealing.

Why do you make yourself such an easy target?

He's mainly interested in stalking me. Just have a look at most of his trolling posts (who they follow, what references he makes) and his agenda will be crystal clear.
He's a 50 year old married man with dependant children who keeps stalking female posters on porn boards. At least he dropped the sexualised stuff.

He's an ignorant, homophobic turd.

You give him way too much credit.
