Those who push “White Privilege” do so from an ignorant and closed-minded position

The idea of white privilege” is a distinctly American idea. Not only that, it is also a distinctly “White Privileged” idea, that could only have been come up with by someone who can neither think clearly nor empathise with the real plight of others. And what’s worse, this pernicious idea is creating two underclasses in society. Young blacks who feel that if white privilege exists, then surely there must be such as thing as black underprivileged. And young whites, who feel that any successes they have may be due to their over privilege.. The truth is that all the young of any race are underprivileged. They control nothing in their environment other than themselves, and are subject to the whims of college administrators, low-level managers and parents (and this is not including the pre-existing rat race that they are told they must compete in until death or retirement).

Some form of majority priviledge lurks in any society. The admonition “white priviledge” comes from the Left’s preoccupation with a racial boogie man. Do any of them take issue with black appropriation of traditionally white owned and operated farmland in South Africa or Zimbabwe? Sorry left wing America. You can’t make me feel ashamed or remorseful for being white.

Sorry, the last time I ran into someone in the KKK or spouting white power, was never. This “white privilege” garbage is just reverse racism being pushed to make whites the slave class....with the whites paying the majority of the taxes so the non-working can keep their lifestyle....are they not already the slave class????

You mean racists?

The Great Society failed. Affirmative action failed. Quotas failed. Therefore, Blacks can’t make it in America no matter what. White Privilege!

What they are really saying is that it is a privilege to be born into the white race. Does that mean they think whites are superior?

[drypowder]

I'm white and the ONLY privilege I have ever had was to be an American. I'm still a patriotic American but not too proud of how the greedy SOBs in DC have literally sold us and this country to the ultra wealthy NWO globalists.

white privilege is an excuse for parasitic losers to gain the unearned, and undeserved, and something for nothing

[MortMan]

No. “White privilege” is pushed to gain an advantage over others - it is explicitly used to try and “shame” whites into capitulating their money, authority, and position to those who do not wish to earn their own.

“White privilege” is just another form of reparations demand.

The only people I hear align talking about “white privilege” at all are minority (majority) political activists...If they looked around they would discover that their is no such thing as “white privilege” anymore. Also why doesn’t the author address black or brown privilege. Just look to the NFL, NBA, Hollywood, and the music industry for plenty of examples who worth in excess of $50M. Guys who talk like this are complete morons.

maybe as far as appearance goes. If no interbreeding occurs they are limited to black hair and brown or black eyes whereas white people can have brown, blond, black, and red hair and a combination of brown, black, green, blue, or violet eyes. Maybe that's the privilege they're whining about.
