I's? You mean mine?

I agree that there are racists and people in companies who are racists. But your definition is not what my definition is or ever will be. I consider privilege something special and I don't consider being white to be special. You obviously do because you are racist. Which proves my point.

Tell me again how Pat Mahomes is the next Tom Brady. LOL.

Dude, I am not a racist. I don't know why you keep saying that I am.

Yes/No:
Do you agree that white privilege exists, going off of BL's definition?

When a white person goes into a department store, they have the privilege of walking around the store without security following them.

When a white person carries a gun in an open carry state, they have the privilege of a calm and rational interaction with a police officer who approaches them.

When a white person checks out of an AirBnB, they have the privilege of not having the cops called because the neighbors think they're robbing the place.

#1) If the white person looks the Birdman, he may have security follow him around. If the black man looks like Collin Powell he is likely safe.

#2) See #1

#3) See #2

Thanks

These seem like special rights, at least compared to what blacks experience.

This girl looks like a normal person:



She's a nursing student. She bought a bag from Barney's. She walked out the store. Three blocks later she was surrounded by cops.

Nope. I already responded to you. A lot of it is how you dress. You come in wearing a suit, you won't be bothered. You come in dressed like a punk rocker and you may be. This is not privilege. Again I don't disagree with you that there will be:

#1) Racist security guards
#2) Racist police officers
#3) Racist neighbors

Sheesh

If there are a bunch of racist people out there and whites don't have to worry about dealing with those racist people, isn't that privilege?

They paid $500k in a settlement. Justice was served. It was a racist clerk. Racism does exist.

Use your brain.

You say racism exists.

Racism alone, in this specific case, was damaging enough that the victim received a $525,000 settlement.

White people never have to worry about or deal with damaging racism.

Isn't that freedom to not deal with racism a privilege?

It is not a privilege LOL. Man, you have a serious case of white guilt.

What is your view on Jewish people?

A white person literally never has to worry about things like that.

Again what is your view of Jewish people. My parents had a swastika spray painted on their house. Pretty sure most "white" people don't have to worry about that. I don't consider that a disadvantage. That girl, who frivolously spent her tax refund on a Barney's bag got $500k. So much for that disadvantage. Laws are here to protect people from being taken advantage off. Her inconvenience was well compensated.

Do you think it is easier growing up a Christian in this country than a Jew? Don't dodge. Answer. And you keep dodging the question of how you feel about Jews.

Waiting.....

Absolutely, there’s Christian privilege.

There’s also economic privilege, sexual orientation privilege, gender privilege, etc.
