Qf nothing, there's still not one example of white privilege in this thread.
It's basically just trying to steer the definition of white privileges to some privileges whites people have that other people also have not just globally but in America. Even using a lot of examples that white people are less privileged in than other races most of the time.

You can take the high ground and call my arguments obtuse, and do an Internet yawn and roll your eyes and make sarcastic comments but these things don't replace a good argument.

It's possible to make sarcastic comments and have good arguments. Sarcasm is a bit of comic relief to help deal with the obtuseness.

I know an educated albino from Congo!

Bloody racist bastard he is!

That must be the ugliest white guy I've seen in my life!  Is he sick?

Examples of white privilege:
-Not getting shot in the head by cops.

White people - impervious to bullets.

Example of white privilege: Being too privileged to even realize how privileged you are.

Example of white privilege: Any cracker currently not filled with a concept of innate guilt pulled straight out of the monotheism handbook.

You don't have to feel guilty... to make the fact that white privilege exists true. There is overall less prejudice against whites, if only because overall white people tend to be in the majority... the same thing goes for other sexualities besides heterosexuality, for example. There is more prejudice against homosexuals than heterosexuals, for example; there is more prejudice against than other races than against white people. The privilege belongs to the groups where there is relatively less privilege against. Minorities don't get the privileges. White minorities are a lot rarer. You have to believe that in this world you're privileged to be born white. That's just a basic fact.
