What White Privilege Is
Self | March 24, 2018 | MissEdie1

Posted on 03/24/2018 7:40:37 AM PDT by MissEdie

Sorry for the rant/vent but I have had it. I am so sick of people talking about White Privilege. What exactly is White Privilege you may ask, well let me tell you my opinion of it. White Privilege is having a WORK ETHIC; a moral compass; and a desire to keep what one has worked for.

I have had enough of the lame stream media and others lament about white privilege being the reason Caucasians appear to have more than their "brown counterparts".

And a “No Excuses” mindset . . . unless you’re a precious little white snowflake (i.e., Publicity Hogg)

White Privilege: Blacks blaming whites for their stupidity and laziness.

Since blacks can’t blame racism, even though they try, for their failures, they invented “white privilege” to say that whites succeed, blacks fail, and that’s is the fault of white for having some make-believe privilege to succeed.

Those arguing about “white privilege”, knowingly or not, are just recycling the “white man’s burden” philosophy of a hundred years ago:

You have been privileged, so you have a moral duty to help those who are less well off.

McKinley and T.Roosevelt would have agreed.

But I don’t think the “white privilege” crowd have any idea what they are saying...

Time for White Pride groups, PACs, websites, marches, signs, protests, actions. Let’s walk their talk, let the bastards (half of them are, actually) know what White Pride actually looks like.

White, hard-working, law-abiding, God-fearing, hetero, educated, America-loving, constitution-supporting citizen — and damned PROUD!

Most blacks in the US descended from slaves and so ask yourself, “how much work does a slave do”? And the answer is, “as little as possible”. So blacks come from a culture of doing as little as possible. And it shows. Bill Cosby knows.

Most “people of color” nations have chosen the Marxist way of “something for nothing” and it doesn’t work.

White Privilege is never having to worry about Cultural Appropriation as you drive your car, speak English, use the ‘net and electricity, aqnd eat your peas produced by someone else.

It isn’t White Privilege it’s rewards for making and keeping the greatest country in the world safe you keep what you earn.

Just like the Left likes confusing "rights" (things the government may not prevent you from doing, like speech and worship and owning the means of self defense) and "entitlements" (things which the taxpayers are obligated to provide for people, like "right to (subsidized) health care"), they also like to obfuscate the difference between a "privilege" (a different legal rule for some people than others) with "advantage" (something about you which puts you in a better position than others).

Growing up in a two-parent household, with parents who make you study hard and stay out of trouble, is an advantage.

Growing up while not studying hard, and yet benefiting from federal rules which dictate that a minimum percentage of members of your race MUST be admitted to college, is privilege.

White privilege is just the latest excuse for the disparities in outcome that just won't go away, no matter how much money is spent or how many programs are tried. They wore out "institutional racism" and affirmative action hasn't ended the disparities, so new explanations are needed. Thus, white privilege.

I probably left out a past explanation or two.

It is a carefully designed form of propaganda, designed to work over young people especially and confuse them. It’s Marxist ideology codified into federal and state law. “Equality” and treating everybody equally, the defining buzzword not so long ago, looks a whole lot like discrimination when one is used to getting special favors.

Leftists have nearly completed their long march through the institutions. Getting truly educated, with a good work ethic, punctuality, integrity, honesty, candor, competency, fidelity etc are by no means a “White” characteristic:

Indeed it is the leftists who are the real racists, by their subtle intimation that blacks are incapable of holding these attributes. Blacks and whites would have done well to string up leftists anytime they are encountered, they do no one any favors except themselves.

Thus the very foundations of Western thought and enlightenment - Faith and Reason - responsible for the betterment of all mankind and rights of the individual are on the chopping block. It is completely bizarre and never in my wildest imagination would have thought possible.

It wasn’t on my radar.
