My privilege as a straight, white, cisgender, middle class thin male

I don't understand your definition of white guilt - It's not about white guilt and I made that very clear from the beginning. I'm happy being a white guy. However it seems to be you're committing a fallacy by making the validity of the argument depend on the person who's spitting it out - Lincoln was against slavery and he was white, right? Does that make the opposition to slavery invalid, just because he wasn't black/slave?

Have you ever thought that just maybe there are a number of reasons other racial groups (we are talking about race right now so I'll address this only) don't talk about lacking privilege is because they may have given up, or learned to live with their disadvantages? Or perhaps because they are aware that many people would give more credit to the complaint if it was proposed by a white person? These kind of assumptions are dangerous.

I don't care about committing logical fallacies anymore. No matter what you type on a message board, somebody will call it a logical fallacy. So that holds no water with me. Learned to live with their disadvantage? I mean it just all sounds ridiculous. I doubt that normal people really stress over all the ways they are advantaged and disadvantaged. Also you can say that it's not about guilt, but the whole opening post is riddled with guilt. It sort of is like the inverse of when someone says 'I'm not a racist but.....' 'This isn't about white guilt but.....' Maybe that's not your intention or motivations, but it sure seems like it.
