How are white people supposed to feel about their own race?

Being able to dismiss these absolutely ridiculous claims properly is good, and can be very useful. But I really think that most of these are so dumb that its pointless to even put in the effort. Good on yah if you do it though.
So many of them boil down to paranoia as well, they come from a scary place.
Every single one of them can also be applied in reverse, because as with all this bullshit about "white privilege", its not about being white, its "majority privilege" and even that is dumb. There are no guarantees. Is anyone talking about "yellow privilege" in China? They are superracist lol (most of my friends are chinese). Most of those things can apply directly to me, being white, hanging out with my chinese friends (despite living in Sweden, a mostly white country).

Lol. You're right. I'd do it though because if a part of my career does involve talking to audiences about this, I unfortunately can't give just the short "you're argument is ridiculous" answer. Evolutionary biologist, Doctor Richard Dawkins is known to debate a lot of closed minded religious people and while many say he shouldn't waste his time, I think he's trying to test his patience/tolerance in the process. 6+ years back, I wasn't as tolerant nor patient as I am now with hearing different views and despite how weird it may sound, debating with people that I disagree with has helped me pay more attention to detail. At the end of the day, I think it would be worth going further into because the idea of white prvilege and even white guilt is pretty known. Getting people to see and understand why the ideas of it are flawed would help erase the nonsense. Well, nonsensical ideas will always exist, but we need to hear them once in a while to facepalm and get the blood moving.  

Absolutely, GamerGate, radical feminists and SJWs really taught me the value of proper arguments. Backing up the things you're saying is extremely important if you want to change something or someone. Those arguments however rarely reach those that need to hear it, and that paper is clearly biased.

Remember the wage gap? The "1 in 4" stat? Haha, as if those things ever went away. Ugh, I just wanna puke. Still, I learned a lot from those idiotic statements and I now know exactly why they're bullshit. If I didn't have that knowledge, I wouldn't be able to argue against it and then I'd be forced to accept them. Always be critical, and think about everything!!
