Honestly, Paul, this shit is embarrassing.....can't you just say "ok,my bad, white privilege exists", what's with the qualifiers, lol? White privilege doesn't mean that every white person does better than every x person. It has never meant that anywhere but your need for it to mean that, in order to argue against it. IDK what sense there is in referencing asians, because a-the truth of the statement wouldn't demonstrate that white privilege doesn't exist.. b, the truth of the statement is in some measure dependant upon subtle racism......and c, it's not as if this country is dominated by asian culture, asian police, asian politicans, or asian citizenry.
