“The more a person needs to be right, the less certain he is...”
With roots in European colonialism and imperialism and the Atlantic slave trade, white privilege is the societal privilege that benefits white people over non-white people in all societies in the world today.
It refers to the implicit or systemic advantages that people who are deemed white have relative to people who are not deemed white.

My father was a legal immigrant that grew up in a small house with a dirt floor and many sibling. He was literally "dirt" poor when he came here. Growing up, I saw my parents argue a lot over what turned out to be monetary issues. I was otherwise raised a happy child and didn't feel that I lacked for anything. I had no idea we were poor.
My parents worked hard all their life and ended up with property that was worth $1 million just before they passed. I was taught that America is the land of opportunity, not the land of promises of wealth. If you work study and work hard, your opportunities are unlimited.
The US is not perfect but I feel fortunate that I grew up here and had opportunities as long as I kept working hard. I don't begrudge people that might have more than me, I strive to be like them.
I'm approaching the end of a very long and successful career and should be able to enjoy my life in retirement from the fruits of my labor. I'm not an old white guy but don't have to be that to find success and happiness.
Its a deliberate disparaging of white history, identity, and even existence.
I don't know what drives the hatred behind this stuff, but if you look at history the parallels with other extreme forms of group hate such as anti-Semitism are striking.
The people peddling this overt anti-white racism will have to keep escalating. Eventually it will probably lead to mass killings. History has shown this.
This seems to be a known.
We have known that the society we live in has been a white male dominated society through its creation - and up to recent times.
As we move forward, we can’t erase the past, but we can maintain a more inclusive society. But our society must not be one of anarchy, it must be a lawful society, or it will crumble.
Is it smart to destroy our laws? Is it appropriate to allow a mob to decide our future?
The white old guys who formed our republic were intelligent, and they have formed a union that has worked for over 200 years. It was based on the foundations of European governments, but it allowed for the republic to grow in its own direction. It is important for folks to use peaceful methods to bring about the change they want to see.
Exploiting others gets you ahead. Thats amerikkkan kkkaputalism

I’d rather grind at my job working my way up the ladder than turning tricks with a 70-yr old sugar mama like Icey.
If hard work paid off then maids farm workers day laborers would be rich.
Your sugar momma was a movie star.
Her name was Lassie.

I probably could’ve had plenty in my younger years, but thanks for admitting you turned tricks.
The law of supply and demand applies to labor. Jobs that can be filled by anyone don’t pay as well as jon’s that require specialized skills.
On the blue collar side, both a farm worker and an electrician work hard. The electrician is going to make more money because the skills possessed are rarer and take longer to acquire than those of a far hand.
I guarantee that you ( Icey ) could never do the work I do. It isntbphysical work, but you lack the intelligence necessary to work in my field and the discipline to get an education.
Robby Raper. When i was 18 I had a 67 year old pay everything for 4 years.
I busted my ass when I was a teenager in blue collar jobs. But I was smart enough to realize that apply more hard work towards an education was the path to making something of my life.
So I busted my but some more and got an undergraduate degree in Computer Science and an MBA.
Now people pay me a lot of money for my time.
The reason the system doesn’t work for you is because what you get is related to what you are willing to give.
That, plus the fact that you are an idiot is what holds you down.
Going to college and having a job doesn't make you a winner.
But the fact js the system is broken. Everyone deserves a dignified wage
People who squander that opportunity deserve nothing.
The fact that you think differently makes it clear why you are a dog fucking loser.
remind me again which one of us is an imaginary pimp.
You can call me autistic all you want. You are pretty far from hitting a mark there. It doesn't bother me.
As far as incels are concerned, I think you need to watch the movie Joker in your mom's basement before you reqlize that they are talking about you, and not me.
Now run along and go fuck a dog.
Don't you feel a little bit guilty for bragging on a strip club website that your grandma supported your lazy wannabe pimp ass for years?
You, on the other hand, are a mess.
You don't seem to notice that 139 people here have you on ignore because nothing you have think anything that you have to say is worthwhile.
You don't seem to notice that any post you make gets a large number of thumbs-down votes.
You don't seem to notice that people start threads about most hated members and your name is always included.
Your friend ChickenShit, as dense as he may have been, at least noticed that he was universally hated and left the forum
But here you remain clueless.
