If white privilege is real, how did Diddy only get four years?

[Anonymous]

The idea that Black people are always harshly punished clearly doesn’t hold up here. Surely, with how rampant racism is in the U. S., no amount of money could possibly override the mighty power of white privilege… right?

[Phoenix98]

No I don't believe white privilege is real if it is I certainty never got any of it. Know plenty of other people who have never seen any of it.

Also Diddy got sentenced because there was simply way to much evidence against him to really explain it away or use money to bypass it.

The amount of evidence they collected was pretty substantial

34 eye witness accounts.

Hotel surveillance videos, videos of the actual sex parties.

Forensic and physical evidence including large cache of items, including drugs (ketamine, ecstasy, and GHB), weapons, and more than 1,000 bottles of baby oil and lubricant.

Financial and travel records receipts, text messages, phone records, hotel invoices, and flight records to demonstrate how Combs and his companies paid for and arranged interstate trips for the sex parties.

If there is any sort of privilege it's the privilege of being rich. But even money can't do much when presented with that much evidence.

[OneViewpoint]

Your thinking is lazy and full of your personal racial bias (aka racism). Probably created by the propaganda you consume online when you aren't busy spreading propaganda on your fake pink account here.

Diddy wasn't the average poor black man on trial in some Red State shithole with a for profit prison system and some appointed judge with ties to the Klan. Diddy was tried in New York on federal charges, not state charges. Diddy had the wealth to buy top shelf defense attorneys and the fame to get constant media attention. He was also sucking his buddy tRump's dick for all he was worth. They share the common bond of 2 men both facing prison sentences.

Allow me to introduce you to a couple of black men without loads of cash tried in red state shitholes who got off lightly. www.foxnews.com/.../convicted-killer-6-year-old-boy-walks-free-after-serving-less-than-half-his-20-year-sentence, www.nytimes.com/.../...fatal-punch-sentenced.html, www.ndtv.com/.../bus-driver-doesnt-regret-punching-man-who-spat-at-him-and-called-him-n-word-he-was-just-fired-1898371

[FreyaRed]

Maybe he is white behind white makeup, or Lady Justice allows her to blind with money before she sees colors.

[jazzy34]

If Sean Combs was not rich and famous, he would’ve gotten a much longer sentence. So yes, money does talk.

[WhiteSteve]

I think you have a fundamental misunderstanding of what white privilege means

[D_Bone_Steak]

Or OG get away with murder? Black privilege is more of a thing than white privilege, but what we're looking at here is the privilege money buys you.

[AMS700CX4u2]

Consider the possibility of White Privilege being a function of money. Social Change takes time. It is a slow transition. Blacks now find themselves with more control over their lives than ever before and I would assume that is a function of their financial affluency. .

[Joshydavid25]

Its not a thing.. It's a vague boogeyman created my Marxist to slowly start a "revolution".. It's the same thing as "Male privilege", "able bodied privilege" and all of them.. It's basically the Proletariat vs bourgeoisie..

[Syntosi]

There are more privilege than just one. If Diddy was poor then he would spend the rest of his life in jail. If he was white then the evidence against him would be swept under the rug. If his name was also Donald Trump then he would become president.

[Asker]

So absolutely zero white pedophiles go to prison? Surely the hatred of black people in the US would have override any kind of money Diddy had

[Syntosi]

I think the evidence speaks for itself. How many white pedophiles do you think is being actively protected behind Epstein?

[Asker]

The guys dead get over it

[Syntosi]

Yes, but what about literally everyone else involved?

[leahzrc]

Because he has the names of famous people that he can blackmail easy answer

[leahzrc]

He has videos of them raping children and eating children and stuff

[Anonymous]

Aside from racism, there’s also classism. People with more money are at an advantage. Common sense.

[Asker]

So you admit that a wealthy black man is more privileged than a poor white man?

[Opinion Owner]

Exactly — that’s called intersectionality. You can have privilege in one area (money, status) and still face discrimination in another (race). Pretending privilege only works one way is oversimplifying something that’s actually layered.

[DryGermanGuy]

It's wealth privilege, first and foremost. Which happens to correlate with white people.

[Speaking_Frankly]

Social privilege isn't absolute. There is a degree of nuance and intersectionality, especially when distinctions by wealth are applied.

[exitseven]

it is not white privilege. The justice system is separated by how much money somebody has. OJ Simpson was able to afford a dream team of lawyers and he beat the rap.

[Kaneki05]

And by the way he's not going to serve 4 years, since he can get parole and could be out way sooner.

[beefcakebradybatson]

Diddy's a (YYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEECCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!) celebrity;thus he's to all intents a wealthy white man in the judiciary's eyes.

[abc3643]

Read his sentencing memorandum and order. The judge will explain the reasons.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

Lots of money and influence.

If Diddy was a poor dude working at Walmart he would have gotten at least a decade in federal prison.

[zagor]

He was found not guilty of the more serious charges so his sentence was not out of line with standards.

[RedInnocent69]

White privilege is a proxy for rich privilege, or privileged privilege. It doesn’t mean it’s not real

[Anonymous]

There is no white privilege, it's money privilege and fame privilege.

[Anonymous]

There si no white privilege anymore. There hasn't been for a while.

[Anonymous]

I'm surprised no other celebrities were arrested too

[Iron_Man]

He’s already served so he might get three years. If he’s good, he might get less

[Anonymous]

White privilege has not existed for decades.

[MemeSupreme]

its not the only type of privilege that exists lol

[Agape93]

Because he also got rich privilege

[Chazmatazz269]

Pure, unadulterated, willful ignorance

[jamesgoldman]

Money, same as OJ gets zero for double homicide

[Staximus]

Money privilege

[FateofOphelia]

White priveledge doesn't exist

[jahaims]

He's rich and worked for the government.

[seeyounexttuesday]

It's always been a false narrative.

[In_Trance]

You got to be kidding me

[chenyu]

Very few Game of Thrones

[Anonymous]

Our justice system just sucks period

[RedEmma]
