The flip side of White Privilege is Professional Victimhood.

Things have certainly changed. The first thing I remember hearing is ‘’You are now property of the United States Government. The rights you have are the ones we issue to you.’’ 1968.

White privilege is what happens when you work hard, are polite, treat others as you wish to be treated, and accept responsibility for your actions.

I know a young woman who was raised in a white family. Her black relatives would have nothing to do with her.

She joined the Marines and did credibly well. Her only problems was they would not let her put “white” on her ID. The best they could do was to have her put “unstated” or some such for “race”.

“White privilege” is the last dying gasp of the race industry. It has unprovable claims based on irrational theory, in order to keep a real “black privilege” based on affirmative action and skin color.

Incredible the U.S. military prides itself on being a color blind meritocracy.

Hey, if we can’t waterboard terrorists, they can’t torture our men and women in uniform with these stupid symposiums to make someone else feel better.

Anyone who utters the words “White Privilege” is a hardcore racist.

About 400 soldiers at Fort Gordon in Augusta, Georgia, were forced to sit through a training session that included a bullet-point discussion on “white privilege,

I remember the good old days when our training sessions using bullet points were which direction they were supposed to go in the magazine.
