Blacks did a lot of slave labor for decades. Next time your boss throws a hissy fit and refuses to give you a raise think of the blacks who did slave labor in terrible conditions for decades upon decades.
Go cry somewhere else... Slave labor? They got food and housing for their services...
Most of the great things (infrastructure, buildings and so on) in this country were build by whites (poor immigrants), asians and indians!
Ad hominem Don't have any arguments to make against my claims except my preferred usage of words. But thanks for educating me. After all Spanish is my native language and I'm still learning English, despite being fluent nowadays
There's no "preferred usage of words" here... you're using it completely incorrectly. Not understanding that racism does not describe what your talking about in any form is problematic. You want me to write in Spanish? I can do that too.
Hay una diferencia entre el racismo y una disputa entre dos tribus. El racismo quiere decir que el conflicto origino de la raza... el tribalismo es completamente diferente. Es como decir que si francia ataca a inglatierra, es racista. No tiene mucho sentido, no?
Because you are white you had far superior opportunities. Remember a lot of employers do not want to hire blacks or Hispanics because the negative stereotype of laziness, drug abuse, and gang relations. What is irritating is your entitlement that because you were a poor white person you deserve to hold a scornful and paternalistic attitude toward those who are different than you.

Oh... please shut up... there are more whites in poverty than blacks.
The blacks build the US? What? You're a stand-up comedian?
You watch too many movies...
Oh yeah, white people got out there and grew those cash crops... lol more whites in poverty than blacks lmao.. What's in that milk you're drinking?

Yeah sure... tell that to the millions of white immigrants that are unable to get a job because they don't have "american experience".
Well... the stereotypes are based on truth... you know that?

There are fewer blacks in the US than whites in poverty! There are about 40 millions blacks in the US... but about 120 million whites in poverty!
Most of the whites are not CEOs, doctors or financial investors... most of them work at Wal-Mart, in restaurants or other services that don't pay very well.

Tribalism and racism, both have the same basis in hating another group because they are different from you. they may look the same but speak a different language, or religion. It makes no difference. You're attacking my choice of words because you've run out arguments
Tribalismo, racismo, los dos tienen la misma base entre odiando un otro gupe diferente a lo tuyo. Pueden aparecer lo mismo pero pueden hablar una idioma diferente o practicar una religión diferente. No hace ningúna diferencia. Estás atacandome por mi uso de ciertas palabras porque no tienes argumentos para hacer.

My employer was the U.S. Army and they will take anybody. I used the G.I. Bill to pay for my education. No excuses here; no "white privilege." Just hard work.

How do you even know what white privilege is when you have it all the time? You are so accustomed to white privilege. You boast and brag about your hard work which is awfully strange for someone who works hard.
It's how you are treated within your job that counts, too. Social stratification is real. Minorities are stratified toward the bottom. Whites are treated better in general even in the U.S. Army.
