...

Australian nurses and midwives are being forced to announce their 'white privilege' before treating Indigenous and Torres Strait Islander patients - a move which has been slammed as 'racist to its core'.

The term 'white privilege' defines the unearned social and cultural advantages awarded to people with white skin which are not enjoyed by people of colour or non-white backgrounds.

And that includes the whites who make them apologize for their privilege. They can be treated by the natives as well

Reveal their white upbringing ... what other kind would there be if they are white?

People have always embraced group identities and always will.

There's truth in your comment - and one only need look at how over the top people can be about their sports team to see it. Hopefully we can get beyond this for the important things.

Families, ethnicities, and even as you mentioned, universities and sports teams each respectively serve as a basis for a respective group identity.

People will never get past that, and should not.

It is fundamental to human psychology.

We define ourselves by how we are akin to one set of groups, and by how we are different from another set of groups.

Not in the U.S. quite yet. We tend to be short of medical personnel.

The terrible actions toward aborigines have been by liberals in the present. Packing them in welfare slums where they kill each other. Liberals do such horrible things.

Medical people don’t care about race, religion or culture. All that matters is someone is sick and or injured and the job is to make them well.

Isn’t announcing one’s white privilege the same as saying, “I’m better than you”?

Let's pretend that "white privilege" is real. Explain to me why white folk, who created, nurtured and developed this culture we live in SHOULDN'T enjoy the fruits of their ancestor's labors?

I owe you an apology. My post is/was a completely sarcastic posting. The whole point is that, as you pointed out, of course they can see with their own eyes.
My intent was and is to point out the STUPIDITY of the idots who issues that ruling.

Liberals made up “white privilege” and supposed benefits to demand that whites be systematically oppressed now to make things “Equitable”.
You have to admit things are unfair to be made to give things up to others to make it fair.
So they’re guilt tripping whites into inferior social status so others can get unfair advantages.
It is like dhimmi in the Shariah law system having to wear distinctive clothes, systematic humiliations, along with public pronouncements about how inferior they were ... so they stayed in their place.

We define ourselves by how we are akin to one set of groups, and by how we are different from another set of groups.

I agree, in principle, but I personally think it is part of the human spirit and psyche to want to distinguish ourselves from others in some way - and that contributes significantly to the group identity associations. You can either distinguish yourself as an individual, or as an individual member of a distinct group. I don't think it's always about identifying how similar or different we are from other groups. For example, people from India and Pakistan look similar to each other, and have similarities in background, but they have been fierce enemies. History is replete with such instances.

“Hey, that leg looks really bad. If we don’t do something right now, you’re going to lose it. Oh, by the way, I’m one of them ‘White Privilege’ folks who keeps you in the status you chose to assume - you probably don’t want me to save that silly old leg anyway.....right?”

As if the patient can’t see with their own two eyes the nurse is white. That’s a slap down to aborigines. Apparently, aborigines are too stupid to see color. They’re too stupid to know the nurse is there to help him. Once again, a government that’s keeping the black man down so they can control him.
