Is white privilege real? To what extent?
RE: Is white privilege real? To what extent?
(July 17, 2016 at 2:07 pm)paulpablo Wrote: I insisted repeatedly in this thread that privileges for white people exist.  White people get preferencial treatment in courts.  This doesn't mean there won't be white people who are in certain situations that make them less privileged than non white people in courts, it's just an overall statistical advantage for white people but not necesserily a real practical advantage for each individual white person.
Then stop asking me where so and so's white privilege was.  You already know where it was and that it exists.

Quote:What I've been arguing about is the the extent of white privilege and the use of the phrase to tar all white people with the same brush of being privileged.
Since by definition a white privilege would be an advantage white people have that no other racial group has.  Yet people continually say it's white privilege to be shot at less by the police when that's blatently an asian privilege.  People say wealth is a white privilege when white people don't earn the most on average out of all races even in America.

Who's using white privilege to tar white people?  You're arguing against the notion of white privilege because you feel compelled to defend yourself or a race against an accusation I've not made....and all the while : looks up: ....you -do- understand what it is and that it exists.

Could it be that asian people get shot at less,. by police, because there are fewer asian people to shoot at in the first place...or that the social and racial dynamic between whites and asians isn't equivalent to the same between whites and blacks...and ofc there's the history......? My great grandfather used to tell me about the good old days when japs knew their place in the cotton fields, lol.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
