Because damn near every white man I know is walking around with one. And every black dude (and pretty much any other minority male) that wants one can get one.

Status symbols are intrinsically exclusive. Does that sound exclusive to you?

Next thing you'll be saying is that hamburgers are a status symbol.
I had a high status hamburger today it elevated me

Why don't you explain your status symbol comment?

Why would a wealthy West, who can have any woman he wants, consider a white woman a status symbol when he could've had one when he was broke?

Doesn't need any explanation, as its true in some cases. Do you think that this condition does not exist at all?

In what cases? Name 'em.

I mean, if it's so self evident, you should be able to name dozens of examples.

Status symbol based on what?

C'mon now, having an honest discussion about race & racism is the 'worst thing ever imaginable.' It's even worse than systemic racism &/or being racist. Let's face it, it's just not politically correct.
