BILLIONAIRE Oprah Winfrey Lectures Poor White People on their “White Privilege”

This takes the cake.

In the latest edition of her AppleTV+ series, “The Oprah Conversation,” the billionaire media tycoon lectured poor white people on their “white privilege.”

The New York Post reported:

Twitter critics have a billion-dollar bone to pick with Oprah Winfrey.

The 66-year-old media mogul has been labeled a hypocritical “fraud” following the latest installment of her AppleTV+ series, “The Oprah Conversation,” featuring former NFL star and race activist Emmanuel Acho.

Acho, 29, who also hosts the web series “Uncomfortable Conversations With a Black Man,” joined Winfrey for a two-part episode, which included a segment inviting non-black viewers to ask difficult questions about racism and white privilege.

“Not all white people have power,” said one guest. “There’s plenty of poor, working-class white people. But I think that when we group all of white people together and we don’t recognize the fact that there’s a lot of white people that struggle, and it’s a different struggle as you mentioned because they’re not streaming upstream let’s call it.”

They continued, “I think that if we’re gonna come together and really attack racism and the inequities that are in this country and are in this world, that it’s important not to group all white people.”

Winfrey responded, “There are white people who are not as powerful as the system of white people — the caste system that’s been put in place. But they still, no matter where they are on the rung or ladder of success, they still have their whiteness.”

The veteran broadcaster also said white people have a “leg up.”

“You still have your whiteness. That’s what the term ‘white privilege’ is. It means that whiteness still gives you an advantage, no matter,” she said.

Some of those white people should lecture Oprah on black inferiority complex too.

Oprah is worth $2.7 billion. She is the richest black woman in the world, yet she still thinks poor white people have more advantage than she does because of their “whiteness”

Oprah is worth more money than 99% of white people in this country but she has the audacity to talk about “whiteness gives you an advantage”.

She is one of those blacks that white liberals gave money to in order to make themselves fell good, all the while being the wonderful anti white racists they would never be able to admit themselves to be.

Only in America can a woman with a horse face, and no special talent, make $2.7 Billion just by talking nonsense on TV about idiotic stuff, then turn round and accuse poor people of another color of having a “privilege”.

Sure, Oprah. So you judge people with a broad brush based on the color of their skin? Gotcha. Yeah, you're a racist, Oprah.

Everyday, a thousand-odd Latinos cross the southern border and are determined to gain the American advantage. They don’t call it white privilege or anything silly....they just want the opportunity to work. So all these low-income start-up jobs that don’t attract interest in communities? They are picked upon by the illegals in America. They just want the right to work....not to collect welfare.

Doprah Dimfrey always has been and continues to be a filthy pagan racist. How she has scammed wealth from self-loathing white women all these years is incredible. And the lard butt dares be a spokesman for Weight Watchers when it’s been clear all these years that she has had tons of fat removed from her surgically.

She and her phony so-called boyfriend Stedmam has been used to cover up her (their) homosexuality so these brain-dead white women will not be disgusted.

She’s a disgusting, god-less racist from the word go.

The Hodge Twins said Oprah is selling white guilt to make more money and I think they are right.

Okra is a fraud. She gained a lot of respect and mullah doing good things, only to turn out to be the “Black Emperess Jones” (look up the movie “Emperor Jones” and you’ll understand what I mean (and the star of that movie was Kremlin operative Singer/actor Paul Robeson (also and indentified member of the CPUSA but more importantly, a “comrade” of another id. CPUSA/Australian CP member and Kremlin operative, Harry Bridges (ILWU).

Both were involved with Frank Marshall Davis (just threw that in for the new kids on the block).
