WTF?!

Who is a racist?

Are you saying I’m racist against white people?

No, it's about a person (don't give a crap about what color they are) that is saying it's ok to loot because I will just cover the cost, I don't want anyone to get in trouble. If a white person said that I would feel the same, it just happens that a black man said it.

There are many posts about police violence I can't post or comment about EVERYTHING.

I give up posting on all this stuff (GF, Looting, Riots, etc.) from now on. No matter what, if you’re white, your wrong, or you have white privilege, etc. just done with reverse racism.

This is hysterical. I’m white.

Edit: instead of calling it “reverse racism,” I’m going to label it “calling people on their sh**.”

Hate to be the one to point out the obvious, but if you're white then you DO have white privilege. It's just a fact. Does that mean you are a bad person? Or somehow consciously racist? Of course not. But it means you have benefitted from an inherently broken and racist system. I am white and consider myself not racist, but I have to be honest and recognize that my life has been made easier due to my white privilege. Or at the very least that my skin color hasn't made my life *harder *, as it would for a person of color.

I do not like the term "white privilege" - I don't feel that I am "privilege" because I have white skin. I find that term to be offensive and racist. There are plenty of poor white people that were born behind the eight ball and will never climb their way out - and I feel that society as a whole looks down on them and hasn't respect for many of those white people as well. There are plenty of black privilege - athletes, and many celebrities. Privilege is earned.

And to add - I do not feel that @autumngems post was racist, she was simply pointing out how wrong it is for anyone to approve and reward violence. Just my two cents.

Reverse racism isn’t a thing. White privilege exists and you benefit from it. Learn to deal with it and be better.

Ok we're closing this. We do not need to argue on this forum about whether white privilege exists or not. Go read about it, listen to some people who this actually affects.
