It’s always the WASPy looking blondes who go all in on the White guilt trip..... It’s a way of saying “I know all you women of color are jealous of my blonde hair and blue eyes... don’t hate me because I’m so beautiful and well spoken, ‘cause I swears I is down wit da struggle”

“But just as a white woman, aware of my own privilege in this country, I am so angry, I can’t even begin. Forgive me.”

Above is an example of a truly pathetic, popular, co-dependent relationship.

This fashionable consensus encompasses those deciding this delusional accusation of “white privilege” inflicts emotional damage on them today. It also includes those who adjust their beliefs to validate this dilutional perception has wounded their identity and crippled any initiatives. Both reside as fragments of a swarm trading away adulthood and dignity for a prestige lacking dreams to pursue or accomplishments to celebrate. This novel moral superiority requires both parties fabricate a disgust for themselves and for the country. Buttressed by premeditated ignorance, both ideologically possessed factions shelter within a joyous cacophony of mutually supportive orations validating the oppressions of their own making. They allow this apparition to define their lives and live out their years in prisons of their own creation. Jordan Peterson discusses how the concept of “white privilege came about as follows:

Privilege refers to unearned sources of social status, power, and institutionalized advantage experienced by individuals by virtue of their culturally valued and dominant social identities (e.g., White, Christian, male, and middle/upper class; McIntosh, 2008).

There’s absolutely no indication in the guidelines that these concepts, or their definitions, constitute the axioms of a primarily political viewpoint. Instead, they are presented as if they are foundational, scientifically credible and beyond question.

Yet there is no consensus among psychologists, for example, about the definition, let alone the existence, of, for example, “masculinity ideology.” There is also no agreement that gender exists solely in the form of “roles” that are learned (as opposed to innate) — although all reasonable scientists agree that much of human behaviour, including that related to sex, is learned.

And there is nothing intellectually credible and certainly nothing “scientific” — and therefore worthy of definition in a document purporting to discuss psychology — about American feminist and activist Dr. Peggy McIntosh’s polarizing concept of “white privilege.”

All McIntosh did, when formulating her famous doctrine in the late-1980s, was write a series of questions, rhetorically aimed at herself, about everything that she enjoyed growing up in a rich, white family, that she arguably did little to earn. This is no way of going about formulating a scientific proposition. There are rules for constructing questionnaires, methods for determining if a new concept is valid, reliable and unique —and she followed none of them. Had McIntosh submitted her “white privilege” questionnaire as an honors’ thesis at a psychology department in a credible research university, she would have received a failing grade.

Well then, do the honorable thing...hang yourself.

Even though Cronkite was a lefty, he was stoic as hell and had gravitas. My favorite was Frank Reynolds at ABC. A helluva newsman.

Forgive me for being white; I’ll forgive you for being left-handed.

Get a frickin’ life.

It's BROOK Baldwin (never heard of her).


I assumed the white woman crying over her privilege was Alec Baldwin.

Headlines should be more specific to avoid this sort of ambiguity.

What a fake, phony fraud this woman is.

They know white privilege is an idea concocted to divide us and it’s racist against white people and black people at the same time. Brilliant.

If you are so privileged then set fire to your house and office to share in the pain.

Yes sweetie, it is a truly American Female privilege to live your entire life in open opposition to the males of your tribe without being killed. Enjoy it while it lasts.

Like the privilege of not burning down your own neighborhood every time you get angry because the media tells you to?

When, for my birthday, my sister gave me a ticket to see Mandatory Fun I got a good chuckle to discover I was sitting about as far to the right in the auditorium as I could ... very appropriate.

I have much more respect for looters than these kinds of “White” people.
