91. No, and I suggest you find someone who likes playing "Yes you are"/No I'm not" all day. I do not.

It doesn't make for a very substantive, or, need I say "adult" exchange, nor does it change anyone's mind.

Btw, the meaning you selected for "privilege" was one of several, and it was ranked near the bottom.

This is key, because in a dictionary, when a word has several meanings, the first given indicates it as the

most commonly used and accepted. The less used and/or accepted are listed after the first in successive order.

The first definition of Privilege is this:

"A right, immunity, or benefit enjoyed only by a person beyond the advantages of most".

"the privileges of the very rich", is given as an example.

Note that it says "Beyond" the advantages of most.

Since Whites are "most", of the populace of America, either now or as of VERY recently, nothing

they have as a race, is more than "most". and therefore, not a "privilege".
