Beto's excellent adventure drips with white male privilege
CNN ^ | January 17, 2019 | Nia-Malika Henderson

Posted on 01/18/2019 6:29:40 AM PST by C19fan

Imagine this: A 46-year-old former congresswoman and mother of three, who just lost a Senate bid to one of the most despised incumbents, sets off on a road trip adventure to clear her head.

She instagrams part of her trip to the dentist. She gives a two-hour interview to The Washington Post where she shows no real knowledge of policy. Like a first-year college student, she pontificates on whether the Constitution is still a thing that matters after all these many years.

There is no such thing as white privilege. We have to start pushing back against the theft of our language. Words have meaning.

Oh sure, there is white privilege. The privilege of being the last one hired and first one fired. The privilege of needing a higher SAT and GPA to get into undergrad. The privilege of needing a higher GRE/GMAT + GPA to get into grad school. The privilege of virtually no scholarship money, especially if male. The privilege of vast majority of workplace deaths. The privilege of being shamed by the media and entertainment world 24/7. Don’t you want to buy your white privilege card today with these amazing benefits!

As predicted, Whitey O’Rourke will suffer the same political fate as Elizabeth Warren, Talcum X, an Rachel Dolezal for the great crime of cultural appropriation.

Correct! What there is, is LIBERAL PRIVILEGE, which is blaming everyone else for one's own lies, distortions, shortcomings, falsehoods, inabilities and victimhood - while getting away with it.

There is no "White Privilege" there is LIBERAL PRIVILEGE and it's high time it got shot down in flames!

Yeah, but Whitey O'Rourke is the guy who puts the privilege in white privilege.

Run into someone when you're drunk and try to leave the scene? No consequences. Wealthy Irish political family.

And by snuffing out his political career the snowflakes can show there is privilege and they do oppose it.

White privilege my butt. This country has minority privilege enacted by law in many areas including educational opportunities, employment opportunities etc.

Affirmative action is the pinnacle of minority privilege and is a widely accepted practice throughout all facets of our lives.

Absolutely the perfect comment. They should have just closed the thread right there.

But since they didn’t...

How funny is it that white lefty people put a ton of $ and energy into glorifying Nonwhite anything, thinking that since they are in the Elite Group who Gets It, that nothing bad will happen to them?? It’s kind of like those guys who go camping with the cuddly bears or crawl into the lion exhibit.

So, they have eliminated Gabbard and Beto from becoming President.

The democrats have released the Krakans of “White Privilege” and “#MeTo.” The Krakans are feeding on democrat white males who are likely the democrats best chance of winning in 2020.

Put differently, if the democrats nominate Beto, they can kiss goodbye to the voters that they spun up on grievance politics. Not that those voters will vote GOP, but they sure as heck will stay home.

It’s ‘liberal privilege’... there’s not a conservative in the country - man or woman - who would be allowed to get away this the Beto type crap.

Nia-Malika Henderson needs to ‘thank’ the liberal press - NOT blame all white men ... which is ugly AND racist.

Obama’s back but this time he’s not black! Just as fake but white male and drifting aimlessly about the country playing Jack Kerouac on his billionaire wife’s dime.

Only a Democrat could fall for this.

Beto is a creation of the media. They are desperate and scraping the bottom of the barrel. (hope he doesn’t need a colonoscopy) White privilege? If I got drunk and tried to leave the scene of an accident I would go to jail. If my father was a judge I would have had white privilege.

I got an old piece of plywood that had been used as flooring under the toilet in an old house in Tyler we are renovating and painted it black then wrote Beto makin’ Ghetto then screwed it into a junk tree in three places. This was a very visible location on a corner lot on a major street.
After two-three weeks someone had removed that sign off private property when we got back into town.
Gonna try again with more serious placement and technique if he runs for president.
Thinking about . Beto: another millionaire with WALLS
