Like I said before, I am not crying about any plights of black people. Let's not even assume that white privilege has anything to do with the progress or lack thereof when it comes to minorities Let's not even discuss the impact of white privilege.
Let's simply discuss whether or not whites are judged more on an individual level than any other minority group. Let's delve into this argument first.
Well no one is whining. And no one is angry. In the purest form, I am defining white privilege. And in any modern first world country, the right to be judged individually is a very powerful right. I'm not saying that it hinders me as a minority. I'm not even saying that minorities can't prevail underneath white privilege. So please do not take talking points from other debates.
All I am doing is defining what white privilege is. I do not want to get into the perceived implication of white privilege. I feel because white privilege is largely subconscious, we must come to terms with human nature, before we start thinking about society as a whole.
The thing that hinders you is your mind period and you've given yourself an excuse.
Seeing as how Indian-Americans, South African-Americans, and Filipino Americans are the highest paid ethnic groups, you'd do well to get a bit of their 'privilege'.
My best shot is South African, but I'd have to work on the accent to pull it off.
This is not a discussion concerning what individual ethnic groups achievements are. This is simply a discussion about whether or not whites have an advantage in being judge more as individuals than any minority group?

Ummmm...did you not read that he's successful? He's speaking about the idiots who make comments like "wow, you speak so well," as though they live in a box.

Ok, lets replace blacks with woman in recent happenings, how do you think you society would think of woman?

This is an interesting point. So do you believe that as a woman you are not purely judged individually, but there is a subconscious need to not take your opinion as seriously because you are female? Again, anyone who looks at your gender before even listening to you is not inherently evil. They are following their human nature. And again, most people would not even be aware of this, because it's such a core function of human reasoning.
