Hell, that’s practically three generations lately.

You are saying there is no privilege in being white.
No I’m not. Is it inherent in being white?
Holy Moses smell the roses! It is a function of our society.
Is that what I asked?
It is not inherent in being white, obviously. It is a function of our society.

Democracy.
Democratic Republic.
Meaningless. You don’t want Mah 'Mocracy any more?
Maybe some more daydreaming about being black will help with that habit of regurgitating the TV’s talking points
One man’s TV talking points, is another man’s study of history, through reading and discussion.
I choose the latter. I will admit, I have watched several documentaries, but not necessarily on the TV.
Not this ■■■■ again. We are Constitutional Republic.

What do you think “function of our society” means?
If it is not inherent in being white, it’s not “white” privilege.

You said plenty of old white men never caught a break. Shall we compare economic status of of white makes versus old black males? You know, an actual statistical comparison instead of anecdote.
Unless your statistics show no poor old white men, you’re going to lose.
I don’t think you understand the concept of white privilege.
You are complaining about the majority winning a vote.
I am?
Nah…not seeing it.

Downside to being a white male? Being constantly accused of being the root cause of everyone who is not a white male’s problem
Where does this happen IRL?
Are we going to pretend a 24/7 media blitz blaming old white men for every societal ill doesn’t translate into people having a negative image of old white men?
When will old white men catch a break?!!??
Plenty of old white men never caught one. Man I could have sworn liberals have been telling us lumping people together by race was evil for quite some time.
You’re the one bemoaning the plight of old white men. Now you want to argue by anecdote? Get outta here.
By anecdote? Lol
You said plenty of old white men never caught a break. Shall we compare economic status of of white makes versus old black males? You know, an actual statistical comparison instead of anecdote.
It is not remotely anecdotal to say it is obvious that not every white man suceeds, which is all that was needed to show why your blanket statement about a racial group was erroneous.

I don’t think you understand reality. Go read the OP and tell me what you disagree with.

But you didn’t learn anything, you just said, “Yes sir!” and repeated everything you were told to.

For God’s sake, someone bring back Civics class already.

If my brothers and sisters hurt, I hurt. (remember, I am a liberal)
And you are right, a generation is about 30 years.
@PurpnGold, I think your arguments mostly lose relevance as soon as the great white libs flock in to splain all the racism. Sorry for your rotten luck in having that as support.

It’s a Virtue Signal.

No, I did not.
it is best to stick to what you know, vs attributing things to people that are inaccurate.
I come here to have my ideas challenged, to be convinced my opinions/knowledge of these types of subjects may not be correct.
It used to happen from time to time…as of late, not as frequent.
And certainly not in this thread.
