"White Privilege" - An excuse or a real problem? (Page 6)

[Anonymous]

Honestly, TLDR. Got about half way through.

However, white privilege is 100% real.

There are literal statistics that show that in hospitals those who are black or latino are given less attentive care and are taken less seriously when the patient rates their care. And thats just one example.

[HereIbe]

Does white privilege exist? Hell, yes, and I USE it. It's amazing how many times my wife has been subject to bullshit until I step up and say the Magic Incantation: "Might there happen to be a problem, darling." Once I say the Incantation, obstacles dissolve, barriers fall, and everything becomes smooth sailing. It's happened over and over.

I don't know about all of this but i wish we weren't separated by our race. each race is beautiful and every race has good and bad people. this shouldn't be a war on race we should start separating people based on good and evil. life would be so much easier.

There is black privilege too African Americans get away with crime racism and all sorts of stuff there also zizerman is not white he is Hispanic

[Tokana]

"African Americans get away with crime..."

this made me lol

[Cherokeehp]

Black people don't get away with crime. We get accused of crimes that some of us never even committed.

[Laura1995]

Most dumbest thing I ever heard... So not true.
@Cherokeehp is right

[atari]

Yup they sure do white people need to step up and defend themselves

[EvilPimp]

Get away with crime? So all of the blacks in jail must've volunteered to go then?

[Xwtxx]

It is a myth.

The progressive hates Caucasians.

[Jewluminazi]

They're just like the Nazi's who blame all their problems on the Jews.

[Findesemana]

The USA still i a racist country... white privelege exists and it's foolish to deny it.

[ImagineRelease]

the US is NOT a racist country. We're the most racially diverse country in the world. But I'll give you a chance to convince me. What's the most compelling argument about white privilege.

[Findesemana]

eh? i don't get how racial diversity means there is no racism...

i'd define it as public attitudes, institutional racism, etc. USA scores high in both...

[ImagineRelease]

In Zimbabwe whites can't own land. Clearly you find that wrong too, right?

[Anonymous]

It's not a problem of the race but being rich or poor.
and African people involved in many crime because of their anger toward the society. For that reason other people become racist toward them.
And i am quite tired of black people complaing.
Stop complaining and start to work like any other races do !

[Jewluminazi]

I find this take to be rather Anti-Semitic and am highly offended.

[Jaoro]

What? Lol that's funny

[Jewluminazi]

@Jaoro What's so funny? A black person might mistake one of us for a white person and shoot us. It would be like the holocaust all over again. Only with black people killing us instead of Germans.

[Jaoro]

... OK I guess

[Scrambled]

Whites and Blacks are governed by a handful of Whites who claimed the lands and the financial structures long before I was born.

[JackKerouac77]

It's going away day by day as America/the world are forced to be more diverse. But it is definitely still the de facto way some rural areas are run, especially in Alabama.

[BattleKitten77]

I love that you want everyone to see your side but you are conpletely unwilling to respect or understand what whites are struggling with. Therefore i do not give a fuck about your problems

[Anonymous]

There is no such thing as a "skin colour provilege."

[SamuelB]

It's an excuse. Don't worry about what priveledges other people have, just worry about yourself.

[normalice]

an excuse for what? being poor?

[SamuelB]

For not trying your hardest.

[The_Empty]

Gotta love the American delusion that "trying your hardest" can magically lift you out of being poor.

[SamuelB]

That's not what I meant to suggest, but rather that if trying your hardest doesn't work, it's not because of white privilege.

[koko124]

Every individual on this earth has, at the first and foremost of their priorities, their own self-interest.

If I am a white male, I have a vested self interest in furthering and keeping the advantage held by white males.

QA: you are a racist who is incapable of seeing her own hypocrisy.

[sirspauldo]

This has to be the longest description I've ever read on GAG, just saying haha

[existing_not_living]

I have much more to discuss too, haha. This is actually waaaaaay shorter than it would have been had I not decided to just make more articles.

[abundantlyrich]

It exist in Germany and other countries in Europe for sure. But they are also heavily abused by their own kind, sadly to say.

[Tanisha69]

I'm non white and I think we need to chill with the racism charge. Its ruining the word and diminishes real racism when we use it for stupid stuff

[rUinSAYAN]

white people look so.. white ew. I like my chocolate midbrown and not too dark. but yeah have you ever looked at white people and said ew white

[Kristententen]

Its Human nature to judge. Race equality is a hopeless cause because it will never be completely equal.
