Finally, even some people in Canada are seeing the stupidity and racism of the white privilege activists. The Social Justice warriors are purposefully creating unnecessary racial resentment in our society, just as Saul Alinsky, Obama's hero, advocated doing, so as to further their political ambitions. It makes me sick that these people intentionally hurt our free societies in order to achieve their own selfish goals.

There are Americans who still remember the Dust Bowl years in their states. Where was their “white privilege” then?

“White Privilege” is lefty thug code for the brutal oppression of Western culture and democracy.

Simple solution: homeschool (which I believe is also quite popular in Canada); private school, although many are probably infected with the SJW trash as well. Conservatives and Christians need to stop complaining about government school indoctrination. It is only going to get worse.

There is white privilege, but only if you are a white Democrat.

Whiteness ain’t a privilege; it’s a gift from God.
Tell the snowflakes that and watch ‘em melt.

Maybe it’s time to define multiculturalism and environmentalism as religions, because that seems to be what people have replaced Christianity with.
So get those religions (and ISLAM) out of our schools, since Christianity is banned!

Very good article on how “white privilege” is really reverse racism. Thank you.
To: DeweyCA
It’s racism against whites.
The “privilege” part is just a replacement for the white hoods the haters would have worn on their heads in the old days.
Privilege hides the face of hatred same as the hood did.

It should be illegal to even ask someone’s race on a job or school application. But putting an end to the practice would be the death knell of the diversity industry.

I don’t call it reverse, I just call it racism - hatred for another because of the color of their skin.

progressives want to take the pre 1960s racial pyramid and turn it upside down. Putting minorities at the top and whites at the bottom.

When you first hear about these issues, some of them stand out. So yes, sure, some of them sound reasoned. It sounds bad on first blush.
The idea a person wouldn’t have food access in their neighborhood sounds pretty rotten. And then you find out why.
Markets don’t open in certain high crime neighborhoods.
Now while the folks that live in them are very quick to blame business owners for not locating in their neighborhood, they are loathe to admit there is a crime problem and there are very good reasons why people are afraid to locate their businesses there.
If it was safe, there’s money to be made there. Businesses would be motivated to move there. They just can’t, because they don’t want to expose themselves and their staff to armed robbery, shoplifting, gang activity just outside, and drug addicts frequenting the place and causing problems.
Ethnic neighborhoods have to clean up their act. If the crime rate falls very low, there will be people move in to serve the community.
If it is an under-served community and the crime rate is low, business owners would have a very good reason to want to move in.

>75% of the entire class are minorities.
For any intelligent people paying attention, that would make them the majority. I’ll shy away from personal opinion here and just say they need to be told to STFU and STFD as the MAJORITY they are.
My radar says I’ll be long gone when we have to start cutting these filth down to survive an our back roads, but part of me wants to get this party started...if the filthy, scum sucking, ugly trash come knocking.
Make the dog bark and you had better back the copulation off scumbag.
