I's? You mean mine?
I agree that there are racists and people in companies who are racists. But your definition is not what my definition is or ever will be. I consider privilege something special and I don't consider being white to be special. You obviously do because you are racist. Which proves my point.
Tell me again how Pat Mahomes is the next Tom Brady. LOL.
Dude, I am not a racist. I don't know why you keep saying that I am.
Yes/No:
Do you agree that white privilege exists, going off of BL's definition?
Don't use my logic against me. Nice try. If BL said all 6'3 people are awesome and you asked me do you agree that anyone who is 6'3 is awesome based on BL's definition, then I would have to reply in the affirmative.
I think his definition is highly flawed. But nice try. And you are racist because privileged means special. Actually let's see:
"Having special rights, advantages, or immunities"
Being white does not give me any special rights, advantages or immunities. So....I think you need to go back to writing about 6th grade soccer.
If BL did make that statement, the definition in question would be referring to either 'Awesome' or '6'3'. You certainly would not have to say yes.
I have stated many times that I don't prefer to use the term 'white privilege'. If you think that 'white privilege' has negative connotations (you are right), then we don't have to use that term. If your definition of privilege is what you listed above, then I agree that there is no white privilege. We can agree on two things here.
1. Not to use the term white privilege
2. No one in this discussion is racist.
