Chelsea Handler: My White Privilege Makes Me Feel ‘Very Gross’
Breitbart ^ | 10/20/2018

Posted on 10/20/2018 2:11:40 PM PDT by Altura Ct.

Far-left comedienne Chelsea Handler said her supposed white privilege makes her feel “very gross” about herself, adding that her skin color and Jewish heritage has played an instrumental role in her success.

In an interview with ABC’s Ellen DeGeneres, Chelsea Handler discussed her upcoming Netflix series on the issue of white privilege and what inspired her to do it. “I just started to think about all the privilege I’ve benefited from in this industry, specifically — being a Jew is a bonus, being a girl as a comedian when I was coming up,” she explained. “I had every advantage. Every door opened for me.”

“When I started to look around at people that don’t have as successful of a career or are working twice as hard to achieve the same things, I started to feel very gross about myself. On a very fundamental level, I wanted to explore it further … [starting] with my own white privilege. I’ve been badly behaved for 20 years and getting tons of money thrown at me for being a loudmouth. You could say I’m talented, but you could also say I’m not talented.”

“For me, it’s an important subject matter right now,” she added. “It’s like, ‘What are the people that are benefiting from this gonna do about it?’ And I’m somebody who’s benefiting from it.”

[made me feel gross]

More likely it was a hangover and the result of her personal life choices. I shall not post the video.

She’s looks white but is not.

“We have all the priveleges of being white, paired with none of the responsibilities”.

You could say I’m talented, but you could also say I’m not talented.”

No, you can’t say the first one.

And go f... yourself you c...

My Italians grandparents and my father came over here and did HARD TIME to make life better for the next generation, and that generation made sure all FORTY ONE first cousins went to college.

So if you feel so bad go into a minority neighborhood and let 10 guys bang you to make up for it, then leave them your money.

you have privilege, but it’s not white.

It’s hollyweird privilege.

Where even molesting children is a “privilege”

I don’t have enough self-loathing to be a liberal.

Well, Chelsea, there’s a very simple solution. Go to Zimbabwe or Burma or Venezuela and make your career there. If you think the U.S. should be completely cosmopolitan and bereft of any native culture, you should be happy to contribute to the same ideal in places in which you would not enjoy unearned privilege.

as a Jew maybe she should look into her heritage of sack cloth and ashes? maybe she would get True Inspiration and step out of her self made delusions and guilt? Realize God blessed her or allowed her the opportunities and all for His purposes not her selfmade ones?

White folks have the privilege of being shamed for their ethnicity and race. Those that promote “white privilege” can kiss my white ***.

Dear Chelsea, just get yourself a sex change operation and then you can feel politically correct forever. Your new “sex bits” might not work properly, but hey, that’s a small price to pay for being part of the “Progressive Left”....
