Jokes are a good filler between the fallacious arguments, assumptions, insults and pleas to emotion.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.

What are you not getting about the fact that non-minorities are privileged and in almost all first world countries in the world being white is being a non-minority?

Are you serious. This thread has gone on for a million pages. You've said nothing but "wah wah white privilege is real but I don't like it because of dictionaries and plus I don't wanna talk about it." And "All privileges matter" and other such bullshit. Also, it's at least the 3rd or 4th thread of this shit. We get it, you don't like talking about white privilege because not every single white person in the world is overly privileged, and also because Asian people have some privilege. Wanka wanka stop blaming white people for racism. What is there left to do but make jokes?

We already discussed the nuances of this topic.
I said non minorities are privileged then Matilda corrected me by saying actually women are a majority but not necessarily privileged.
So saying I don't get it after I've already discussed this topic and the ins and outs of majority privilege is pretty ignorant or just a false assumption or both.

You're taking from the fact that I created a thread centred around the topic of white privilege to mean that I don't want to talk about white privilege?

Actually, you created a thread centered around limp wristedly denying that white privilege exists: because asians, and calling recognition of the phenomena racist white-bashing.
Somewhere, due to this, an alt right dipshit got his wings. OFC there will be jokes, not the least of which this thread. Are you not entertained?

Am I typing through a filter where what I say gets reversed at the other end?
Creating a thread about white privilege means I don't want to talk about it.
I say in the first post that I think white privilege exists to an extent and I'm therefore denying the existence of white privilege.
I say we look at all the information and perspectives and that would just cloud and confuse the topic.

Being white is being a non-minority that is almost always privileged. So white privilege is very real in this world.
I'm saying you don't get it because it still seems you deny white privilege which is patently real.

-and we've since seen the extent to which you think it exists.

Yes I've given my opinion
