Hello, it’s not privilege.

It is a European heritage that dictates a certain set of behaviors that others have come to expect from those with light skin. Folks expect that those with light skin are raised Christian and will reflect Christian values. And the majority do. Folks expect those with light skin are raised with a Western Civ viewpoint. And most of them are.

This does not constitute “privilege”. Most people with white skin have have generations of Christians and Western Civ critical thoughts behind them. Intact families. (Prior to the 60’s when the generational curse of divorce took hold.) There is just no way that those with light skin are going to reflect Oriental values, or any other values you could name. They are going to reflect Christian, western values. Nothing wrong with that. No reason it should be otherwise.

For the time being, the majority of the country is white, so surprise, white people probably have an effect on the culture. Hardly "privelege" or "racism".

If I went to China, there'd probably be some disadvantages for me because of "Chinese privelege". And I'd be at an extra disadvantage if I moved there, refused to work, expected them to pay my medical care, provide my housing, refused to learn anything about their language or culture, or disrespected it. Not to mention if I had a brood of kids who grew up to commit crimes and terrorized the citizens.

In short, (most) white people adhere to this axiom:

You don’t sh!t where you eat...
