Yes

Make a fictional character suddenly change race when their race plays zero importance in the back story, and white people complain unless said character suddenly becomes white. Any such things to make a person colored will be met with fierce claims of sjws and political correctness.

Heck, white people get so angry about stuff that when the media reports on crimes, they'll show the mug shots of people of color, or if they died then any pictures of them looking mean plus dig up dirt on them. Yet a white person committing horrible crimes gets them either labeled Muslim, or they'll have their pictures of them surrounded by family being happy (even if they murdered the family).

Not that this is my belief, but let's play devil's advocate: if a movie had a black character as the main one initially, and it was changed to a white person, do you think there would be no controversy? I feel like your first point would apply to both sides of this argument.

Yeah, the level of the responses make the response from black people insignificant in comparison.

To be fair, this isn't asking about privilege. Privilege is what you have, entitled, as the poll suggests, is how you feel. You could be the least privileged person and still be the most entitled. Granted, I still said its white people, but you can't say "white people don't realize they're privileged" if this poll has nothing to do with privilege.

Entitlement is an effect of privilege

Considering that right now in the world, If you have two equally qualified people trying to do something that requires some kind of approval or acceptance, if one guy is white and the other one is a minority, the minority will be chosen almost every time.

So at this point in time, minorities have the advantage, simply because people don't want others to think white people have it, so it gets taken away.

What basis do you have for this statement? Something being written into law doesn't mean that people follow the law.

Also the question was about being entitled. To legitimately think that minorities have an advantage, despite all the statistics saying otherwise just because you have a shitty job is silly.

lmao imagine believing this

Imagine ignoring all the studies showing a person with a non-white sounding name is more likely to have their resume ignored

I'm going to agree, mostly to see what happens, and also because the great socialist utopias exist exactly where "white people" are (Canada, pretty much all of Europe, and the western parts of Russia).

it is super obvious with you at least. if someone feels the need to make fun of white people as a group it probably means they are projecting and are insecure.

sorry you are just an angry black guy that espouses angry rhetoric
