My education and work ethic is what allowed me access to good paying jobs and a quality future. White had nothing to do with it unless you're willing to admit white people instill that in their children and other races don't.
Bullshit. You trade on your white privilege every day and don't even realize it. I spent most of my working career working in the land of white man's privilege and you a$$hats are so certain that you and you alone got ahead because you don't have the first clue how being born a white male gives you a distinct advantage over every other person out there applying for a job.
Nah, it was all brains and hard work. Just ask George W Bush.
Did you ever read the story of Chris Gardner?
Christopher Gardner Biography
You want to tell me, that it wasn't hard work? At the time that Gardner was getting his foot in the door at Dean Witter Reynolds in the 1970s, the entire financial market was white. DWR was all white. His bosses where all white. And he showed up late to a interview without a shirt. And you want to tell me about white privilege?
Why didn't they hold him down? Why didn't they disenfranchise him? Huh? What lame excuse do you have for his success?
There's a restaurant that opened just down the road from me called Skyward Grill.
This black man, was one of those grilled cheese steak and brat cart vendors you would see down town on the street, or at the rest areas. The guy worked his butt off. Saved up money. Now bought a closed store, and converted it into a diner.
You know what the difference is between people like you, and people like him? He did sit around blaming people for the difficulties in life. He wasn't being a jerk, talking about white privilege. He wasn't crying about not having a silver spoon. Instead he worked and got his own sliver spoon.
That said, you are right about one thing... it's not all hard work. Nor is it all brains. A good portion of it is attitude. Yours sucks.
"white privilege" excuses is for the lazy, the whiny, and the useless. The kind of attitude that you are displaying right now, right here on this forum, is exactly the kind of attitude that I've seen destroy people like you. You think the rest of your co-workers and your boss, can't see through you? You think your customers don't see through you?
You think that guy would have been able to save up the money, and open his own store, if he had been standing around complaining how unfair it was others were born white? B!tching about how he had to stand outside and cook brats?
No, of course not. Customers wouldn't buy from him if he had this under-class whiny attitude.
See, he didn't buy the left-wing memo that he was held down, and disenfranchised. That's why he's a winner.
