A social construct is not a dig at an individual. It is simply a current reality.

College white girl who gets her tuition paid by her parent : Dear homeless white guy, you're life would be harder if you were not white due to your white privilege

White privilege is just a slur to downplay people's problem if they are white

Question for all you people who think it is slur.

How would have a better life. A homeless black man or homeless white man?

I think that would be a bit hard to quantify honestly, but I'd wager if you compare how much money a white homeless guy gets from random passersby vs. how much a black homeless guy gets you'd notice a difference at the end of the day

I do get that you have a lot of audacity if you tell a homeless person their lives would be easier if "x" thing happened when you are a rich college white girl who have parents that pays for her tuition

Um...no it isn't? It may not have the power some of the more unhinged activists think it does but it does have a tangible effect on people's lives, your example of homelessness does almost work because wealth generates more privelage than skin does not because white privelage doesn't exist

White privilege is just a slur to downplay people's problem if they are white

Think of it as this all white people have a 20-sided die, with numbers 1-20 on it. The higher you roll, the better you do in life.

Due to our social constructs, various non-white people are instead given 30-sided dice, and those extra 10 sides have extra 1s, 2s, 3s and 4s on it.

The white people can still get treated like shit or have bad luck. It isnt exclusive. The deck is stacked in their favor a bit more, but it isnt a guaranteed winning hand.

It's a misutilized term that is too loaded to really ever use in proper discourse, but it cannot under any context be called a slur.

I acknowledge that its widely accepted to criticize & mock white people, but not black people. I think its unhealthy at this point. Developmentally. For society. It had its place but no longer.

We have black leadership. If you want real black presidents, then you need real black voters. Why not cut to the chase.

Some people cant say white or black anything without making it a slur. Thats what racism is. Yes, the concept of white privilege often gets used to demean people these days. In bad faith.

No, it's a real thing that idiots have driven so hard into the ground that it's become a cartoonish caricature at this point.

Thank you. It's a nice explanation of why it's a racial slur.

I mean I was completely beating around the bush. Someone else touched on it. It isnt, but it gets used like one. I think were all a little racially sensitive sometimes, but if you consistently feel like youre the victim of racist undercurrents, seek a solution! Nobody should have to live in shame over the color of their skin.
