There is no more "Let's all get along", it's white's are the problem and they need to give way every time racism is mentioned.
“Name calling” is a fundamental Marxist propaganda technique. It is designed to be used by the simple.
Shuts down any reasonable or rational discussion.
With racial preferences in hiring and academics coupled with a vast over representation of blacks in commercials and movies, exactly where is this “white privilege”?
Constructive? There cannot be a constructive conversation with the Left. They are insane.
Uh, a lot of us saw right through that useless POS and recognized him as such and were NOT fooled by “the promise”. Could just be me though. 😁👍
“can actually decrease support for racially progressive policies.”
IOW: be henpecked by race grievance pimps or else!
No, instead ALL of so-called “progressivism” needs to be decreased, rolled back and done away with.
So “white privilege” limits discussion. What does “White privilege” do? That might trigger somebody somewhere.
I’m white and I am privileged because I worked my ass off all my life. That makes me supreme, as in white supremacy because quite honestly I am because I educated my self, continued to educate myself and worked my way up. I hold considerable contempt for lazy asses expecting me to pay their damn way through the taxes I pay. It’s because I pay my way and their way that makes me superior. If they don’t like it, then get a real job and shut up.
There is no such thing as white privilege. There is a penchant for people to more easily deal with people with whom they share a tribal bond. Whites are the distinct majority here (for now). It may not be fair, but it is perfectly understandable.
Starts out with a lie.
If it is true, how do you explain poor whites? Millions in Appalachia and in the industry-dying Midwest?
“White privilege” is a presumptive conclusion gives one side of the argument a positional leg up that creates the illusion of intellectual superiority. If you accept this presumption, you’re starting at a disadvantage that relieves the other side of asserting a reasoned viewpoint.
That's how I felt when he was nominated. Then I saw the ‘Rev. Wright. “God damn America” video .... over and over and over on TV.
When “O’Bozo” was delinquent and half-a&%ed in his laughably irresolute effort to distance himself from that guy, and STILL got elected... I KNEW we were in for it and that NOTHING was going to change.
If anything .... it got worse.
BTW... why didn't anyone tell me about ‘white privilege” while my boss was kicking s&@t in my face DAILY, for 15 years??
People who use the term white privilege or even condone its use are hateful racists. To reason with them. Is like reasoning with Hitler or the ayatollah. They hate you. They believe white people exist to put down black people. And when you start to give in. Its a very long road of giving up, until you have no stuff and no rights. You are in the wrong for everything at all times.
Brilliant insight. The author probably holds a PhD in Duh.
“White privilege” is bigoted and prejudicial. Further, it’s largely a misnomer or a lie.
The phrase “white privilege” is itself racist, undeniably racist.
To include a racist phrase in a discussion about race would be like slapping someone while discussing the importance of non-violence.
Not that any of this matters to our woke elite.
I have been told more than once that I am lucky because I’m a lawyer. My response is that I remember the day I bought the scratch ticket at the 7-11 and won a law degree, saving me the trouble of going to college for seven years, toiling over book work, which I despised, and paying thousands of dollars for the privilege. I was also spared the inconvenience of waiting until I was in my thirties to have children, living on ramen noodles and bologna sandwiches, driving a 20 year old car, and putting my wife to work. Yes, it was a real stroke of luck, and thank the lord it was all because I enjoyed white privilege.
You can extend this argument to homosexual-privilege or trans-privilege or Jewish-privilege especially in Hollywood.
Just look at the Vatican where the most vocal degenerate homo priest are promoted by the Pope, and now 80% of bishops are queer.
The normal’s are outcast and disenfranchised.
"White Privilege" is nothing more than a Marxist divide and conquer gimmick.
