yeah that's BLM alright

It's more of 'my ancestors were probably enslaved so you and all white people own me for generations of genocide and enslavement!' with a whole TON of related stupidity.

a very small percentage of white people actually owned slaves back then

Instead you have media conglomerates, college professors, college administrators, talk show hosts, celebrities and politicians telling you that being white is bad and that there needs to be less white people in pretty much every aspect of life.

*citation needed*

You really havent seen any of them? They are everywhere.

I would find all the sources for you but this stuff has been posted on gamefaqs over time and would take a lot of effort to gather all of the sources.

You're simultaneously arguing that these "whites are bad" people are - in your words - "everywhere", to the point where it is a systemic problem, yet finding any sources to back up your claim of this expansive issue - again, these people are "everywhere" - is too difficult.

From googling "college professor white guilt" I was able to find this story in about 5 seconds:
http://nypost.com/2016/07/01/elite-k-8-school-teaches-white-students-theyre-born-racist/

That's one school, with the complaints mostly centring on one administrator. You're going to need to do better than that.

That would be like me posting one video of a white guy using a racial slur and saying "See how widespread this problem is?!"

I can post single links that go into systemic issues of racism, homophobia, and sexism, ones that go beyond individual examples and describe, using statistics and analysis, how prejudice is affecting groups of people. If you want me to take your claim of "a lot of important people say white people are evil!" seriously, you need to be able to do the same. Otherwise you're just prattling off anecdotes which, while individually harmful, are not indicative of a greater serious issue.

I'm willing to admit that straight white males overall have it easier than other groups as long as other groups are willing to admit that it isn't entirely a one-way street.

And pretty much everyone acknowledges this is the case. Aside from the very fringes of the movements, people acknowledge that there are situations where discrimination happens to the disadvantage of straight white males. Privilege is simply saying that, on the whole, things are better for straight white males than for other demographics.

Ayup. See. Here's the thing...

Anyone who has actually bothered to look into the issue of slavery, both in America and around the world, understands that it's a freaking complex situation. Even today there are quite a few people in slavery or living in slave-like conditions. Surprisingly America has the lowest amount of both including illegal slaves. That aside. Historically the fact is that everyone enslaved everyone. The black slave-trade gets the most focus for multiple reasons, but it's far from the only one. As a result these people who go around and act as if the only instance of slavery was in America and it was only black people who were enslaved are the historical equivalent to creationists for science. Not only is it wrong but it's VERY wrong and actively hurts knowledge and understanding of what actually happened.
