Your statement I quotedNo, you do blanket statements that evade the actual issues.And the concept of white privilege is stupid. People are more than welcome to self deprecate or believe they are oppressed by someone else all they want. It doesn't make any of it so.
So now you are going against your own definition of Privilege? Its not that I believe blacks have been oppressed its a matter of record that it is so.
But again, you like these labels, you like these 'concepts' because it gives you someone to place the blame on other than yourself. I get it.
Why are you ignoring what I said. Are you now going against your own definition of Privilege or not? Because if you are going to argue with yourself I can just watch instead.
I'm from a poor 'white' trash family. I have a brother who still is in that. I have a sister that is not. I am not. I have a good friend who grew up in a great family. He has done well for himself. Really well. He is 'black'.
These brush strokes about white and black mean absolutely nothing to anyone except those promoting them.
