If you don't believe in (recognize) white privilege why the fuck are you on a Democratic Forum?

53. White privilege has been "a thing" since well before this country was founded.

Just because you didn't read about it on DU - or perhaps you just didn't notice it and it was here all the time - doesn't mean there are countless people who were aware of it since it began.

Do you think all of a sudden this past year people realized that whites have it better than blacks? You've heard of the civil rights movement, haven't you?

White privilege isn't about anecdotal stories about particular white people and the concrete, measurable way they benefit, they benefit merely because they are white. Just because you can show a black person that is more well off than a white person does not mean white privilege doesn't exist. It's always been here.

And Bill O'Reilly will always rail against anything that liberals talk about, that's what he does. He's a disingenuous opportunist that plays on the low information viewers he is duping. He is no more evidence of anything in the real world than is a unicorn's poop.

If we don't talk about something it won't go away.

I believe I've seen you posting about feminist issues in the same manner. Perhaps you should read more on these subjects. And try to just take in what you are reading/hearing/seeing about it to grasp the other person's experience rather than give yours, which is coming from a place that is not of the oppressed, seemingly. I was taught about them in college 30 years ago, it's a shame people seem to be getting through their schooling without knowing much about these things.
