As Hunter Wallace at Occidental Dissent notes, this kind of stuff makes sense to many Northerners (and let’s add many deracinated suburbanites and urbanites in Dixie to the list). They believe in ‘White privilege’ because they want to feel guilty. Truly bizarre.
‘White privilege’ is much like ‘racism‘ and ‘diversity‘ – it is a meme popularised by our enemies to achieve power and weaken resistance to their agenda. As long as one White man is left, they will claim that he has ‘White privilege’. Even if all Whites are genocided out of existence (such as in Haiti) they will still blame all their problems on ‘White privilege.’ This is a relic of the Dark Age which we are throwing off as we emerge into the Age of Survival.
David Sirota writes for Salon.com:
Tagg Romney, grandson of George Romney, son of Mitt Romney, is the latest flesh-and-blood embodiment of White Privilege on the national presidential stage. Though that stage has historically been a catwalk for the whitest and most privileged in the world, Tagg is in a class few achieve. With his lineage and his inherited wealth he equals George W. Bush when it comes to getting advantages by virtue of nothing more than whose crotch he popped out of in the hospital delivery room.
Now, thanks to his comments yesterday, he has surpassed even Bush, becoming not just an image of White Privilege, but an example of how that privilege quietly operates in too much of America.
…One of the hallmarks of White Privilege is the unquestioned and largely unchallenged assumption that white people can say heinous things about people of color without blowback or even mild criticism — things that people of color rarely dare to say about white people, for fear of serious retribution. Tagg — aka Mr. White Privilege — proves the point perfectly. He feels totally comfortable fantasizing about committing physical violence against an African-American man. And remember, he’s not just any white guy pondering such grotesque dreams. On the contrary, he’s one of the public faces of a national presidential campaign appearing in a public media interview, meaning White Privilege has made him feel so comfortable airing such notions, that he didn’t hesitate to whimsically broadcast them to thousands of voters.
“…One of the hallmarks of White Privilege is the unquestioned and largely unchallenged assumption that white people can say heinous things about people of color without blowback or even mild criticism — things that people of color rarely dare to say about white people, for fear of serious retribution.”
What alternative universe does this anti-White lunatic live in? Reality is the OPPOSITE of what he said here.
The whole things perverse.
Period.
All human beings need to understand (And accept) the fact that we are all made differently. Even though we are different (Look different, act different, different skill sets, etc.), it shouldn’t make one superior in a haughty, arrogant, way. It is what it is. That’s what makes studying different parts of the globe “cool” in school, because it was always neat to find out that we weren’t all the same, and that’s what makes us unique as a species.
All this other stuff about “white privilege” or whatever it is, is just garbage and nonsense (Especially in this day and age).
Anyway, that’s my “two cents worth” for the day (And that’s about all that it’s probably worth!)
“What do Unicorns, the Loch Ness Monster, and Reverse Discrimination have in common? They don’t exist!”
Someone clearly hasn’t done any research. A unicorn hasn’t always meant a pretty whine pony with a spike sticking out of its head. There’s a breed of deer with one horn, which was called in the old days a “unicorn.” So unicorns are real. It is entirely plausible that Nessy either exists or existed. Plesiosaur is the best explanation, and since Loch Ness has never been fully charted, there could lurk in its depths the skeleton of a plesiosaur that once lived there (and thereby gave rise to the ancient legend). And for reverse discrimination, one need only open one’s eyes to the fact that we’re not allowed to have student unions, a heritage month, or any other ridiculous things that the other races get. Biggest slammer for that is the fact that we are the *only* race it is acceptable to displace, and the *only* race where the world would supposedly be better off once we’re all gone.
So I have a bone to pick with that sign. Unicorns do exist. Loch Ness is entirely plausible. And Reverse Discrimination is really just discrimination plain and simple.
“White privilege” carries a connotation of great evil and injustice with it. But who complains about Black privilege in Africa? Who complains about Mestizo privilege in Mexico? Who complains about Han Chinese privilege in China? Who complains about Arabic privilege in Saudi Arabia? You see, when the majority racial/ethnic population in non-White countries are preferred and benefit from being members of the majority group, why that’s just natural and fine. But when Whites in White countries enjoy this same “privilege” that goes along with being in the majority, that is a great injustice that must be mitigated.
Therefore, one must arrive at the conclusion that those who seek to minimize “White privilege” are really just ANTI-WHITE.
But once again, the attempt to connect the lack of outrage expressed at Tagg Romney’s remarks about punching Obama with this “White privilege” is utterly asinine.
The last time I made those same arguments, Jared, I received this scoffing reply, “Ha! That’s not what it means. This country is different. These people are coming here to build a better life. Who are we to deny them that right?” There are many people who sadly refuse to see the truth.
