4. "White Supremacy" is all about White Mediocrity (I am one), and the fear of having to compete and excel.

I never had better and more challenging work environments than when I was with non-white company.

If I had something to learn, and there was plenty, I learned.

If I had something to teach, I taught it.

Did I rest on my laurels, earned or unearned? Sure, a couple of times, but those were boring as the daily Trump self-award ceremony.

Privilege, as in unearned privilege, pulling rank, or preaching what you don't live: THAT is the "welfare state" where you show your "white badge" (or rows of medals you bought) and expect the world to deliver you:

1. Everything.
2. Everything for free.
3. Everything right fucking now.
4. Everything on a fucking silver platter.

"Because"

Don't ask me how I learned these little maxims. (hint: the hard way)

And as for "those lazy brown asses having an advantage", they're running a race with their fucking shoe laces tied.

Immigrants came to this country and worked their fucking asses off just to gain a foothold when nobody would hire them.

Great people lift others up.
Trashy people try to cut others down.

It shows.

When someone tells you, Mister Loser, that you're a "winner", your wallet and dignity are being lifted.



No end of fucking fools to con.
