If you're simply saying that white people on average have more advantages than most minorities in the United States, then that is an accurate definition. I don't like the terminology because it's one of those loaded words that inherently seems combative no matter how you utilize it. I think most of the people who do utilize it mean it to be combative. I think the whole discussion around it is typically disingenuous, and there is a fringe minority who use it in a racist manner.

That it's definitely a thing, but doesn't mean white people can't be poor or suffer at the hands of the system. It fucks over everyone black, white or any other race if you don't have money/connections.

ArchiePeck posted...It exists, you would have to be very ignorant to deny it. Well yeah, people dont like being told they have it easy/easier because of the color of their skin, kinda like how claiming anything else based on someones skin color would be offensive. Regardless the term is from the Jim Crow era used to divide people when poor whites did actually have privileges that blacks did not, like being able to be served at restaurants. Under the original definition it is no longer true, and any idea of white privilege today is also incorrect. That includes ridiculous claims like whites have it better than literally everyone else, even if they are the same socioeconomic status and make the same amount of money. Funny how that standalone comment would be a yeahhh, no fucking shit but explain that its white privilege and the white guy who makes minimum wage has it better than the guy of any other race who makes minimum wage and suddenly its true and legitimate That invisible knapsack is also a crock of shit. Go ahead and google and read a bit and come back and honestly tell me that bandaids matching whites skin color is a legitimate privilege, even though everyone can tell when you wear a bandaid regardless of the color of your skin. --- If you don't have anything nice to say, say it on the internet. ****poster Extraordinaire ...

I've noticed it every time I had to deal with cops, for example. They treat the drunk white guy (me) pretty well, but the drunk Navajo guy gets treated horribly.

I think the biggest issue is trying to use it on the level of individuals in the first place. I don't think there's anything wrong with saying such things based on averages. The second someone says "you have white privilege" or "your white privilege", they've lost the plot. No individual has inherent privlages. It all depends on where they live and who they live with. The idea of mass privilege comes from inspecting a large amount of cases where individuals of one particular grouping of people have certain experiences or don't have certain experiances. But that's just that, an average.

complete disregard based solely on personal experience is willful ignorance or you just dont get it. yeah, i don't like the edit you made to your post. you're not the first person to accuse me of being too white, apparently, to get it. you don't specify what the reason is i don't get it, but what other reason can there really be, from your point of view, when you don't know anything about me but what i've posted? i put it down to a personal problem. it's a problem because i'm biracial and i can pass for white. so can a lot of people. diversity is supposed to mean understanding such a simple thing as this, unless you just post for the lulz and you don't mean it when you use x, y, or z words. --- The american prison system is a sorry mess but giving them game consoles isn't going to solve anything.
