Jordan Peterson Debunks "White Privilege "

[Carl in Michigan]

This guy always makes irrefutable sense.

It's up to the people with the problem to adopt the AMERICAN culture. Yes we do have a unique culture. The anti-Americans in the comment sections know that when they start with the America bashing

He doesn't debunk it. He simply points out that it is normal and natural, and universal. If you are Chinese in China, or German in Germany, or French and France, you will have privileges that non-Chinese, non-Germans, and non-Frenchmen would not have. If you are "white" in the Unites States, which was founded by "white" people, there are some inevitable privileges that non-"white" people don't get.

How could it be otherwise?

Do you know who the first person was, that was shot by the British? No, the United States wasnt founded by white people, but by people in general who were tired of the tyrannical government that was oppressing them. Yeah, thanks to the British blacks were turned from indentured servants to slaves, but it was white people who gave up their lives later on, to free the black man from the oppression of the Democrat party...

On March 5, 1770, British soldiers opened fire on a group of unarmed American protesters, killing 5 (either 3 or 4 immediately, one dying later), an event referred to as The Boston Massacre, sometimes called the first shots fired in the American Revolutionary War.

Oh, bull$hit... the United States was founded by descendants of White European Christian immigrants...

Not all white people have white privilege. Just the well - educated wealthy ones. So it is not about being white it is about being well educated and wealthy.

Yeah, Jordon Peterson is just another blowhard on YouTube preaching to the gullible. Another beta loser who thinks the entire world revolves around white males. I like this description: "The stupid man's smart person".

How dangerous is Jordan B Peterson, the rightwing professor who 'hit a hornets' nest'?

Since his confrontation with Cathy Newman, the Canadian academic’s book has become a bestseller. But his arguments are riddled with ‘pseudo-facts’ and conspiracy theories

So much for the individual rights and personal freedoms. You must assimilate. If white privilege doesn't exist, how can the rest of us adapt to it and make it our way of life? This is just more right wing fascist bullshit. We have no reason to adapt because people like you are threatened by anyone who isn't just like you.

There is not one unique "American Culture" at all, because you are not and having never been a homogenous people. Which "American Culture" you to adapt to? You have three founding races, all of whom have their own unique cultural identity. Plus the Cajuns in Louisiana. Southern Americans have an entirely different culture to those in the north east or the mid-west. White Texans are completely different from New Yorkers. Even American music. Is it Jazz? Hip hop? Country?

You don't get it and never will. The world is about conquering. No matter how much you diss it and find it distasteful. This is not about white males. It is about the ideas they signed on to where no one else did with all of the conquering that all races have done. We ended up with a many ethnic and cultural groups who forged a national identity in a powerful nation. Each keeping their own traits but blending into that. That national identity is now in peril. And this is not good. We are weaker and getting more so with people bringing their foreign politics here and many Americans ready to let them . So withing we are being conquered by our own who sold out for their 30 pieces of silver. A Garden of Eden we may not be. But we are as close at it got.

While not directly aimed at white privilege it's still on topic.

Jordan Peterson is a learned and experienced psychologist with decades of experience and insights that are universally appreciated. Any hack to calls him "dangerous" is worthy of ignoring.

You really need to learn history asshat. Everything the Founders did, was done before. Rome was a Republic for 500 years before they became an Empire. Democracy began in the Greek City States. Rights for individuals came with the Magna Carta in England. The ONLY idea that the Founders signed onto that had never been tried before was Chattel Slavery. That was a new idea. That the value of your slaves added to your wealth. And it's been a millstone around the neck of your country ever since.

There is no homogenous "national identity" and never has been. Tell us, oh wise one, just what is the "national identity". Define it for us. Tell us what you fear "losing".

He should watch out, Bill Cosby was saying things similar to that before women came out of the woodwork to shut him down.
