The definition of white privilege is kind of in the name.

Every person who believes in it will give you a different definition. It doesn't exist.

TFW unwillingness to accept the existence of white privilege is a manifestation of white privilege.

White privilege is like herpes. You'll want to pretend that you don't have it.

If you don't have it, you don't want to get herpes, so this analogy is ****.

Then what's the issue? It's pretty clear. If you live in a society where you are the majority you are probably going to have a better time than if you aren't. Do you consider this controversial? Do you just think that people are so egalitarian that they treat everyone equally no matter the color of their skin?

"Probably"

So it doesn't exist then.

Also taking over this thread yet again with race nonsense isn't really helping you. If you want to discuss it we have a race thread.

"Probably" is the point you twit. If it were guaranteed then we'd be living in Nazi Germany. It's a complex, nuanced issue that I suppose is easy to be blind to if you're uninterested in exploring ideas that threaten a world view that benefits you.

Ja, it really isn't the black and white issue that a lot of people make it out to be.
