"White privilege" is used to justify policies / programs that push those of other races directly into higher-level roles, without them working their way up from the lower ones. The end result being, due to that lack of experience, they don't know how to properly handle that role, do a poor job, and everyone thinks "oh those minorities are just useless" - when in fact it's not that they're useless; it's that they were never given a chance to gain the needed experience. This is how real systemic racism operates these days. Subtle, not noticable out of context, and almost invariably under the guise of "fighting racism" rather than perpetuating it. And, more often than not, it comes from the side that invariably claims they're "anti-racist" and will cry "racism" any time their racism-perpetuating policies are questioned or opposed. very intelligent post. Proving white privilege is real is easy af. First, it's merely a generalization of white people. It just means white people in general, have it easier. No. Let's compare whites to blacks. Blacks have only been free to vote for 50 years. Think of how many more years white families had to acquire wealth, own a home, and pass it down to their kids or invest in a business and keep it going, etc. Time is valuable...and it's real...it's also true that people tend to aggregate with others of the same race. And if you are part of the race that makes up 60% of the population, congratulations, you more than likely will have a much larger and useful social networt. Real racist way to open but alright. You also described class privilege not white privilege. White privilege originated in the Jim Crow days when racism was running rampant and was used to comfort white people in shitty times so they didnt have meltdowns about being a finanacially well off as recently freed slaves. Privileges like being able to go to certain restaurants, drink from certain water fountains, and take the front seats in the bus. Now days its used to stir up racial tension and deflect blame to white people as a whole and chalk it up as they have it easier, thats why they are ahead. I would be where they are or better off if I had the privileges they do. As if every or even the majority of white people have it easy. --- If you don't have anything nice to say, say it on the internet. **poster Extraordinaire <cite>EdgeMaster posted [p:904141357] in I was told...
