The only reason I don't call you a blithering fool is because you're simply repeating a bunch of crap that you read or heard somewhere else. This is just as ignorant as when birdog said in another thread that all people displaying the confederate flag on their vehicle drive old pickup trucks and have no teeth. How can someone who is supposedly 'sensitive, modern and enlightened' make such idiotic, sweeping generalizations like you two make? I knew you're not much of a critical thinker, but I didn't realize you were a bigot. For what it's worth, I've never read anything in this forum that pisses me off as much as that post of yours does.

This "white privilege" bull **** is what the millenials coming out of college are preaching. It's disturbing how resolute they are in their narrow mindedness.

It's disturbing how resolute they are in their narrow mindedness. You know they may have a point. How could these white lazy !@#$s become successful without some privilege?
Azalin Posted July 16, 2015 Posted July 16, 2015 This "white privilege" bull **** is what the millenials coming out of college are preaching. It's disturbing how resolute they are in their narrow mindedness. Pure bigotry. To label or judge an individual - let alone an entire race - by their skin color is racism, pure and simple. I can't believe that people are so stupid as to not see that's what this whole white privilege crap is.
DC Tom Posted July 16, 2015 Posted July 16, 2015 "Then I'll get a white woman who's wearing a navy blue sweater..."
birdog1960 Posted July 16, 2015 Posted July 16, 2015 I thought this was supposed to be a serious forum for serious debate, my apologies. you don't understand the rules. it's serious when the cons say it is and not when it doesn't suit them - like now. but they aren't the rules. write your own and play by them.

I can't believe that people are so stupid as to not see that's what this whole white privilege crap is. It's an interesting case study for full on indoctrination. You convince these kids to buy in through peer pressure and deference to authority, along with the fact that buying in absolved them of their guilt while simultaneously implying their superior social status. From a mind control perspective it's brilliant.
keepthefaith Posted July 16, 2015 Posted July 16, 2015 No, no no. It's not racism if the target is white. Exactly. My ancestors came over on the mayflower which probably makes me as white privileged as one can get.
Magox Posted July 16, 2015 Posted July 16, 2015 Must suck for white people, being criticized and made fun of. Poor white people. Not racist at all. You would have been PERFECT for this show. Seriously, we have very little to complain about... our family wealth and societal standing is built on the backs of people of color. Instead of whining about people criticizing that, we should instead being empowering people of color to bring them up to our level of power and privilege. Speak for yourself. If you want to pay for the sins of your ancestry, go right ahead.

Hot, steaming, stinking crap. Look past color and at the decisions people make every day when they get out of bed over a period of years and you'll find an amazing correlation between that and one's achievement or lack of it.
Magox Posted July 16, 2015 Posted July 16, 2015 For what it's worth, I've never read anything in this forum that pisses me off as much as that post of yours does. His posts on this thread is the biggest bunch of douchebaggery that I have read on this forum in a long time. What a douchebag.
Chef Jim Posted July 16, 2015 Posted July 16, 2015 Exactly. My ancestors came over on the mayflower which probably makes me as white privileged as one can get. My ancestors came over on the Fortune the second ship to arrive after the Mayflower. So my ancestors were peeps of yours.

Rob's House Posted July 16, 2015 Posted July 16, 2015 (edited) If you think about it, the fact that the race baiters had to develop the concept of "white privilege" disprove's the theory itself. Things have gotten so good that they could no longer plausibly sell the story of how prevalent white racism is or how much it sucks to be black so they had to modify the theory to one that highlights the subtle "privileges" that are inherent in being in the majority. Like seeing people who look like you more often on TV and not having to wonder whether you got pulled because you were speeding or because you're black. Edited July 16, 2015 by Rob's House
TakeYouToTasker Posted July 16, 2015 Posted July 16, 2015 I think that was my most popular post yet. If by "most popular" you mean "least accurate", then yeah, it certainly competes.
Rob's House Posted July 16, 2015 Posted July 16, 2015 Just remember, if you or your friends or family are killed or beaten for being white it doesn't matter because their assailants don't have power.
