NEW HAVEN THE recent reunion show for the 40th anniversary of Saturday Night Live re-aired a portion of Eddie Murphys 1984 classic White Like Me skit, in which he disguised himself to appear Caucasian and quickly learned that when white people are alone, they give things to each other for free.

The only Whites I know that have any type of privilege write for the New York Times or they’re politician.
The privileged whites of the NYT work overtime to keep underprivilerged blacks on the government plantation.
Today, expecting black people to behave like adults is considered racist.
Of course I'm referring to the chronic complainers. Those few that choose not to follow the popular narrative are the bravest people around.
New York Times? New Haven? I need read no further.
White privilege is inherited: you have a dad, he had a dad, his dad’s dad had a dad,...

If they blow the whistle just right it will signal for them to dog-knot your white daughter first.
if white privilege is real wouldn’t black entitlement also be real???
I think most white people get a “free pass” because everyone knows that they have to get up and go to work early in the morning or there won’t be any taxes to run BIG Government.
White footprints on the moon. I will consider the opinions of others when they match it.
The problem with this study is it is inherently flawed. It admits that even black minorities favored whites significantly. Were these minorities some how under the spell of their white oppressors in some kind of racial stockholm syndrome? I find that doubtful. It makes far more sense that because blacks as a population even in Australia are known for committing more crime. This is just an uncomfortable fact and bus drivers regardless of race are going to see an immediate red flag that isn’t as likely to be there with white patrons because of negative experiences, rules of thumb, and stereotypes they have developed. This doesn’t mean they are racist. It means they are human beings who just naturally like to avoid trouble. This study also did not control for all kinds of variables that could easily skew the results but of course this study wasn’t done to discover the truth but to confirm a leftwing bugbear.
Yes racism exists but the problems of the todays black minorities are not the result of it. Their problems are largely because of ‘helpful’ white leftists who have denied them honor, dignity, and cultural integrity by moving black minority populations from servitude in chains to dependency on government which is another kind of chain just the same. Blacks for example represent 13.2% of the US population yet they represent 39.8% of Welfare Recipients which is slightly higher than whites which make up 77% of the population. If you look at food stamps it is an even worse distribution with 31% of Blacks more likely to have used them versus 15% of whites. Blacks have suffered not a redistribution of wealth but a redistribution of poverty and you don’t see the left wing gay white knights at Apple or other big Democrat donors doing anything to offer more opportunities in the US instead they move those jobs most likely to benefit the poor especially minorities overseas.
It boils down to “Its not racism stupid, its dependency”.

I always like “Mr. Robinson’s Neighborhood.” Guess what, boys and girls, NO taxi cabs will pick anyone up in Mr. Robinson’s neighborhood.
More knee-jerk Leftist BS from the NYT.
I personally believe this Chris Rock video is more relevant than the Eddie Murphy Video or the Australian study:
Chris Rock: How not to get you ass kicked by the police:

“Boy, Ive been white my whole life and never knew I didnt have to pay for stuff...”
You dont understand, you are supposed to consider it a privilege to pay for non-white people’s stuff. For example when my daughter was in college I had the privilege of paying full tuition (~25k /yr) even though she had good grades in HS and on her SAT. One time she got into an argument with a black girl who was playing her stereo loudly when my daughter was trying to study. The black girl said that since her parents were paying $1000 in tuition she could play the stereo as loud as she wanted.
