Alright, time for a recap:

After countless pages of completely pointless huffing and puffing, it turns out that my original post:
I'm going to pretend you are asking a serious question and not just trolling here.

First of all, let me start by explaining what being privileged DOESN'T mean:
- It doesn't mean you will never experience hardships or difficulties.
- It doesn't mean you haven't earned the things you worked hard for in your life.
- It doesn't mean you "owe" anything in particular to people you don't know.
- It doesn't mean you're the bad guy.

Put simply, "checking your privilege" means realizing and acknowledging that, as a white male, you have certain privileges that other races and genders simply don't have. That's it.

I get it. You grew up poor and worked to better your own life. You can't stand the idea of people supposedly implying that you didn't earn what you worked for. That's not what "check your privilege" means. I'm not trying to belittle the efforts you made in your life, nor am I implying that you had it easy because you're white and male. However, whether or not you realize it, you still had several advantages afforded to white males. You could go shopping without store clerks eyeing you like a hawk waiting for you to shoplift something. You could take public transit and not feel the eyes of strangers staring and judging your attractiveness regardless of how you dress.

Also, you should be aware that by saying that you equate "acting dumber" with "acting less white", you are being an asshole who gives the whole "check your privilege" crowd plenty of fuel for their ire.

I don't see it any more, but that video of Louis CK is basically Louis CK checking his privilege. He's a professional comedian so it happens to be hilarious, but he's acknowledging that it is advantageous in today's society to be white. If you agree, you have successfully checked your privilege. Congratulations.

Gentlemen, this has been your daily voice of reason. Now bring on the negs!
is something that all reasonable people are now acknowledging as self-evident.

I've seen this before, I'm not gonna say I'm surprised, but come on, guys. Casey let two go by before he struck out. Next time you let me get away with something so easily I'm gonna be seriously disappointed.

You sound like Sam'da'man. You post something insane, then when a couple other pedophiles agree with you, you recap and call yourself correct while congratulating the other pedophiles for their forward thinking.

It's borderline insane to announce yourself a winner in an argument where only a couple people agree with you.

What white man here would willingly trade places with a black man? Any black man of your choosing.
Since it is hypothetical to start with . I pick Idi Amin in his heyday booze , dope , pussy and never have to put up with anyone's shit ever , just kill em and serve at the potluc dinner. With the godlike bonus of the entire world defiantly not giving a shit , no matter how many negroes I killed. Hell where do I sign

So hypothetical. Rich white parents have baby boy. Goes to private schools, become doctor, very wealthy. You meet this man and tell him to 'check his privilege'.

I want you to type out exactly what happens to both you and the man based on these responses:
  • Yes, you are right, I was very privileged. Thank you!
  • I wasn't privileged, I earned everything I have!
  • I refuse to check my privilege; I choose to live in ignorance.

It's a passive-aggressive statement made to create indignation while maintaining innocence. By asking others to 'check their privilege' and acknowledging your own, you are absolving yourself of any guilt. It's new-age white guilt, now available for being anything!

So it is borderline insane to announce yourself a winner but apparantly perfectly normal to make false statements yourself saying you are the winner?


Way more than a couple people agree with him. At least for me though, I just don't feel like responding over and over to the silly garbage posted by people on the other side of this debate. We have Voyce, Kirun and others going on and on accusing Tanoomba f being a "girl". This isn't fucking junior high. I am not going to debate people who think it is the height of wit to accuse someone of being a girl. What's next, you all going to accuse Tanoomba of having cooties? Maybe up the ante and call him a homo while you are at it. Dig deep in those insults you heard in 7th grade, I'm sure they will put him in his place!

Oh, you don't like the direction we have driven the world? Too fucking bad. You are welcome to move your ass to China or Haiti or Somalia where Mean Ol' Honky won't do you any harm.

I'd chose to stay in the most advanced society in the history of the world with a standard of living that would have been impossible to fathom two generations back.

Who is arguing with this? No one is saying that society isn't better off than it was two generations ago. That doesn't mean we can't be better off later, or acknowledge that some of us have it better than others.

I don't care who is arguing what!

If I'm to shoulder all the blame in history for the color of my skin than I choose to own the positives as well.

Son, we live in a world that has white bitches, and those white bitches have to be guarded by men with guns. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Tanoomba? I have a greater responsibility than you could possibly fathom. You weep for the Negro, the Female, the Chink, and you curse the White Male. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know. That an imperialist oligarchy, while tragic, probably saved lives. And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives. You don't want the truth because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that wall, you need me on that wall. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said thank you, and went on your way, Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon, and stand a post. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you are entitled to.

Everyone under the umbrella provided by the white male oligarchy should thank their lucky stars they get to be in the shade it provides. It's a whole gigantic pile of rape aids and dysentery everywhere else.

I fucking love you right now. Western civilization has done a shitload of good to the world and it does irritate me at times when we have people like Dumar and others act like it is all evil. However, I can make that statement and still acknowledge that I had advantages that others did not have.

America has committed a lot of evil both at home and abroad. And for no particularly good reason in many of those cases. We've never really been threatened from abroad in any serious way, our costliest war was our civil war, we lost as many soldiers in the civil war as we did in all of our other wars put together. We've gone to war by choice a BUNCH of times now. We've done a lot of good in the world too, but there's a very real possibility that the US really IS just a violent, evil cult of money, given everything we've done. I mean think of everything we've done when we've never been threatened with total annihilation like the Russians or the Jews, or heavily sanctioned into oblivion like post WW1 Germany. If we've been this big of a bully for no really good reason, just imagine how evil we'd be if we ever were threatened like that. And that's why we have to be VERY fucking careful with who controls the political and military apparatus of this country. We constantly have to be vigilant of our own behavior.
