White Privilege, Refuted

[Bud_Spencer]

The thread title is no surprise to anyone who's been paying attention. What is surprising is who refuted it: Ibram X. Kendi.

The article from The Hill found that "81 percent of students who faked minority status did so to improve their chances of getting accepted. Fifty percent of students who lied said they did it to get minority-focused financial aid."

Welcome to the party, pal!

They stole minority privilege from minorities???





Perish the thought.

I have no idea what your point is....can you explain further?

If whites have privilege, what are they doing posing as non-white applicants?

Those people are corrupt and taking advantage of systems meant to subsidize disadvantaged.

But there aren't racial preferences in admissions, are there?

Do you not understand what a subsidy is? Each college has its own admissions policies.

Subsidy? There's no subsidy involved. It's purely about race and ethnicity. And if you can find a college that doesn't favor BIPOC / IBPOC (there's a bog fight over who gets top billing, believe it or not) applicants, can you let us all know?

The whole meme of "white privilege" is there to conceal the fact that whites are officially disadvantaged.

So, you're saying that the policies that benefit some races over others are systemic.

Sounds like systemic racism to me. So, who is being discriminated against?

...white people? Oh my.

From their own mouths do they condemn themselves.

A century and more ago, blacks tried to "pass" to access the full range of opportunity in a society that openly discriminated against them. Now whites are doing the same, for the same reason.

If you're going to post the tweet, then perhaps add the rest - https://twitter.com/DrIbram/status/1454565810501046279

The cognitive dissonance is clearly agonizing to illiberal racist.

Those people are corrupt and taking advantage of systems meant to subsidize disadvantaged.

They aren't disadvantaged, you're just a fucking racist who hates white people.

Do you not understand what a subsidy is? Each college has its own admissions policies.

And they're clearly racist as they favor not-white not-Asian and not-Jewish applicants.

So, you're saying that the policies that benefit some races over others are systemic.

Sounds like systemic racism to me. So, who is being discriminated against?

...white people? Oh my.

That's ok though, it's not racism to discriminate against white people for being white, Asian people for being Asian or Jews being Jews.

Just as a democrat, racism only flows 1 way, from the above listed "advantaged" groups to the "disadvantaged" groups.... sorted by race/ethnicity of course.

It's only racist when the "advantaged" do it, totally impossible for the "disadvantaged" groups to be racist.

 

[Bud_Spencer]

That's literally insane.

Oh, and BTW, Kendi deleted the Tweet I posted after it was pointed out that it was a massive own-goal that exploded his entire worldview.

If claiming BIPOC status falsely didn't improve their chances of admission, they wouldn't do it. Period.

Wow, that's a really good point.

Agreed.

Following the example of Senator Elizabeth Warren.

I'm not racist towards any race in any capacity. I don't care what angle you use there. My arguments towards you Trumpy dipshits are towards you for your Trumpy bullshit. If that happens to be about your stances about race, that's because of your stances. I don't have a inferior or superior opinion of any particular race. Observing that someone named Jermaine (example) has a less likely chance to get hired or accepted because of bias attached to the name is not a racist perspective towards whites...sorry.

Being disadvantaged because of nothing you've actually done should always be something that should not happen.

 

[Bud_Spencer]

Bingo. Not to mention Rachel Dolezal and Shaun King, aka Talcum X, Hueless Newton, Martin Luther Cream.

 

[CornusKousa]

A little hard to understand is it?

What happens when you point out "progressives" are anti-white racist by institutionalizing racial discrimination against them.


Progressive Racist: "Is discriminating against people for their skin color racist when I do it to white people as well??

https://c.tenor.com/tqERWt8lBYEAAAAM/calculating-puzzled.gif

What about the Asians and Jews??? Is it still racism to discriminate against the richest most successful racial demographics in the country for their race???

They just can't come to grips with the facts.

Unfortunately for our Will, there is no way.

I'm not racist towards any race in any capacity.

So why are you a progressive Democrat??

I don't care what angle you use there.

Don't need an angle, you and your politics are demonstrably racist, actual definition of racist too, not just disagreeing with Democrats "racist".

My arguments towards you Trumpy dipshits are towards you for your Trumpy bullshit.

Your TDS is irrelevant.

If that happens to be about your stances about race, that's because of your stances. I don't have a inferior or superior opinion of any particular race.

No but when you institutionalize RACIAL DISCRIMINATION, to create "racial equity" one of the primary "progressive" values and DNC platform.

You're a Jim Crow level racist.

Not at all sorry.

Being disadvantaged because of nothing you've actually done should always be something that should not happen.

So PUNISH WHITEY!!! And that's totally NOT racist!!! Just ask a Democrat....LOL

Dud has spoken about Kendi being a liar for a year but now Dud says Kendi is telling the truth.

Lol.

Liars sometimes speak truth, not everything is as black and white as the dishonest in society try to make them out to be.
