Correcting grammar is racist.
RE: Correcting grammar is racist.
(April 29, 2016 at 3:36 pm)Thumpalumpacus Wrote: As for the advantages white have that Asian-Americans don't? For one thing, they don't get told to "go back where you came from." They don't get mistaken for Arabs and get the shit beaten out of them, or even murdered. That sort of thing doesn't happen to me, a white man.

Are you really this obtuse?

Enjoy your semantic quibbles. I'd rather address the problem, rather than its label.

No, not the privileges that white people have that Asian Americans don't, the privileges that white people have that no other racial groups have. That's what a white privilege is. Not just a privilege some white people have and some Chinese people and some Mongolians or whatever. A white privilege surely by definition must be a privilege specifically for white people and that's what I'm trying to figure out.

Jewish people are Caucasian and are sometimes mistaken for Arabs and attacked,arabs can be quite pale and I see no reason why a white person, in particular a white personal wearing Arab cultural clothing or a white Muslim couldn't be mistaken for an Arab.
I would say Chinese or Japanese people are more privileged in not being mistaken for Arabs and killed.

As for not being told to go back to where they came from, it depends which country, white people in Africa are often told this, they might even be told this in America by native Americans. White polish people who can't speak English in America might be told this. There's no proof whites people are never told to go back to where they came from.

So we still haven't pin pointed precisely what the white privilege is no enjoyed by any other racial group, the non whites.


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.

Impersonation is treason.
