When Whites Just Don’t Get It, Part 6Hmmmm. Saw a CNN article talking about "black privilege" vs "white privilege". Google it. This isn't about that. But it got me thinking.....
Don't all non-white Americans....need to check their privilege for being members of the world's most powerful, rich nation...which was built mostly by greedy powerful whites???
Where else could Jay Z be a near billionaire....for singing?
Where else could LeBron James be a near billionaire for playing a ball game?
Where else could "poor" minorities have abundant food, TV, cars, air conditioning, free education, etc etc??
Where else can poor minorities live without fear of invasion or pandemic disease?
Sorry folks. The very same people who bitch about "white privilege".....are benefitting from immense second-hand white privilege! Just like second-hand smoking.
The global superpower built by these wicked evil greedy whites....has provide opportunity and lifestyle for minorities that are the envy of 99% of the rest of the world.
Non-white Americans.....you need to check your second-hand privilege!!
LET’S start with a quiz. When researchers sent young whites and blacks out to interview for low-wage jobs in New York City armed with equivalent résumés, the result was:
A) Whites and blacks were hired at similar rates.
B) Blacks had a modest edge because of affirmative action.
C) Whites were twice as likely to get callbacks.
The answer is C, and a black applicant with a clean criminal record did no better than a white applicant who was said to have just been released from 18 months in prison.
Interview skills? Dress?
OR COULD IT BE....that many employers have had bad experiences with past black employees being rude, late, insubordinate and overall poor quality employees...so they have a subconscious bias???
One more time, B, this trying to rationalize facts ain't holding water...you need to read the intire NY times article. These are documented facts..something you neo nuts can not comprehend. I'm not whining about it, I'm just telling you facts. Oh and just for the record, I've worked in all areas of jobs and white people get the bad raps of having the fuckin attitudes of superiority and a lot of employers hate that. I hear that all the time, they don't like hiring w/mf's cause yaw act like yaw know every gotdamn thing, that's my reality.
If BLM isn't political and it's only about a few blacks that were wrongfully killed by cops, then why are they protesting Trump and his supporters. Trump didn't kill anyone, and he has never advocated that cops should kill blacks unjustly.
You complain that people still prefer to hire whites over blacks with similar backgrounds. You seem to want to blame this on "white privilege", but whites did not create the stigma that blacks have. Blacks have the highest crime rates, and they still embrace the thug culture. Who is more likely to commit a crime, a black man or a white man? We all know the answer so don't hate people for playing the odds and preferring whites.
If blacks want to be treated the same as whites and be successful, they should check their black thuggary. And when they do, you should probably not call them Uncle Tom or a sellout.
