I certainly don't think any sort of division is a good thing between races. But that said, would you rather your child grew up or white or black in America? I think you know the answer. Yes, poor white people have very hard lives too. I'm just saying though.
I am white, I would want my child to grow up in an environment I understand. I think you may be making unfounded conclusions based on very little data.
That IS part of the privilege. Less likely to live in a community with higher rates of crime and violence.
Good god, tell me you're joking.
I'm not sure what there is to not understand. It's possible we just think differently and what's clear to me, isn't to you and vice versa. I don't know why you always get so combative if it is ever suggested you're not as fair-minded as you would like to be. Anyhow, here's how I see it:
So the majority have privilege and that majority is white. You therefore acknowledge white privilege.
I did make an overgeneralization, it's true not everyone who can trace their lineage back to Africa or Asia is getting in on this anti-white campaign.
Apology accepted.I did make an overgeneralization, it's true not everyone who can trace their lineage back to Africa or Asia is getting in on this anti-white campaign.
The simple answer is: sorry Leigh, you're wrong. "Privilege" and "Majority" are not close synonyms. You can try and make that case but it'll be a waste of energy.
The more interesting answer is a lot of people are equating the two because everyone has, somewhere inside them, an "us vs. them" mentality. So it's not just you, don't worry
Getting back to it, it's not that whites in the western countries are any more privileged than anyone else (re: skin colour) living in those same countries, it's just that they descend from the previous majority. And the majority wanted a nice place for everyone to live in. And apparently they did a good job of the heavy lifting because a lot of people from other nations have wanted in on it for some time now. Everyone can enjoy the place and their odds of doing so are GREATLY increased by coming from a stable family with two parents, (at least one of whom is well-educated) who talk to their children and try to raise them well. That environment leads to less crime and generally people enjoy stability and serenity more than instability and the constant presence of violence.
The majority of people living in the west who descend from Asia are doing extremely well, is that due to some privilege or due to how they are raised? Or is it just those grubby whites, who wouldn't be worth shit if it wasn't for their privilege? Could you even define white privilege? Does anyone else have a privilege?
@ConorMcGregorsBeard's valid point that it is difficult/impossible to quantify. Your posts have repeatedly supported this, although you now seem to be disagreeing with your previous statements. In any case, the simple litmus test is: would you rather be black or white in the US? 
Okay so you're saying it exists but it's impossible to quantify, is that right?My only position is that white privilege exists in the US, although I acknowledge
I keep forgetting, but its very clear you're not American nor live in America, nor are aware of the reasons 'black communities" in America are often time poorer than others; and why that leads to higher crime rates. I'm sure you think its some other reason than the historical facts though.
How common is it for Asians to blame the White majority?
That person is an imbecile. Many of those are only privilege if you're racist. Eg they can see people of the same race in magazines? Who gives a shit, aside from racists?
Did anyone read these?
Is that question directed at me?My only position is that white privilege exists in the US, although I acknowledge
Wow. Check out how well your point is illustrated in this video:My only position is that white privilege exists in the US, although I acknowledge
Everything is a historical fact. Everything is data. Not all data are historical facts.
It wasn't, it was part of a discussion with @blank but this is a public board and you're free to answer if you wish.
I really think you're missing the idea of what white privilege means. It isn't about blaming white people, although some people do that as well. It is acknowledging that society treats you differently depending on your race, like someone not being as personable with you simply because of your race. Most of your posts confirm white privilege. You say that everyone is racist and prefers to stick to their own race, that white people have a better chance of living in nicer communities etc. That's confirmation of white privilege.
LOL. You are clearly mentally ill.
How's that white privilege working out in South Africa?
Bingo. It appears you are wasting your time explaining something so simple to him though.
Could be because western Europeans will be extinct within a few generations.
