Is white privilege real? To what extent?

[RobertE]

And - your point is? You may be surprised, but some of us have pointed out that white privilege isn't exclusive to America. It happens in other places too. Three guesses as to what these other places and America have in common.

You said earlier white privilege is a western thing.  I asked and got no answer, does this mean you think white privilege isn't prevalent in Russia, Russia being an eastern country.

Saying that white privilege is a western thing, is actually stating that white privilege doesn't exist in Russia, it is not in the West. White privilege exists in America because the ethnic minorities (from what I can gather and from what I read about "white privilege") are treated like sub-humans. Police target blacks, Asians, Mexican and American Indians like shit, and compare that to the United Kingdom, it is quite clear that America might be the mightiest country in the world, it is long from being the most liberal.
