I'm mostly talking about America since that's where I'm from but I imagine it exists in your country. I'd assume that it's less antagonistic in England since you don't have the same history or racial strife but that might very well make it harder to recognize since it would have fewer obvious things to point out and might give the white majority more of a feeling of rightful ownership of your country.

Because nobody has ever given me a good argument as to why it does. It's a different one every time or just complete shit that doesn't make sense. I'm pretty sure one time it was explained on here as only applying to the US anyway.

Anyway as for this thread I hope RS comes back.

Have you ever honestly looked into the arguments for white privilege with an open mind or are you just responding to people you think are ridiculous and giving a thumbs up to Youtube videos that express a view you already hold?

That has nothing to do with anything so I'll just ask you again if you've ever honestly looked into the idea of white privilege without actively trying to disprove it or just watching Youtube videos of people who are trying to disprove it.

If you think that nobody has ever given you a good explanation of white privilege and why it exists then it might be because it's an abstract concept that's very hard to point to with a smoking gun. So maybe you should seek the information and opinions out yourself instead of declaring victory over a concept that is very easy to denigrate by people who have a vested interest in nitpicking it (i.e. white people who don't want to feel guilty about anything).

Or because it doesn't exist.
