I believe they call this white guilt or something. Always nice to see when white people complain about white people in a country which is populated by white people for the most part. SJW lvl 100 and radical Feminism in a nutshell.

I said "other" not "all".

Which ones?

They're saying white men but they're not meaning all white men as if it was a distinct demographic.

You can see it as a counter distinguisher because usually when something is reported in the news the skin color is only mentioned when it's not about caucasians. With saying "white men" they want to highlight that white men are just as able to commit crimes as any other ethnicity.

As a white male, do you really feel under attack and marginalized or generalized? Or do you just want to have a bite of the tasty victim cake other minorities are having?

Please tell me about that victim cake that I am having. As a minority I didn't know I was being marginalised or generalised.

Ah, so that's hope you're going to proceed? "I'm a minority and I don't face discrimination, that means no minorities are discriminated".



Identity politics. Its ultimately sad, and its the reason there is so much racial divide in America. We don't have this problem in Canada for good reason.



Made a bet with LipeJJ and HylianYoshi that the XB1 will reach 30 million before Wii U reaches 15 million. Loser has to get avatar picked by winner for 6 months (or if I lose, either 6 months avatar control for both Lipe and Hylian, or my patrick avatar comes back forever).

So some people from minorities have faced discrimination at sone point, that means all people of some minorities are discriminated against by all people of a certain group? I can play that game too.



My problem is the narrative of white privilege. Any group that has power will put their own people over other groups, but people are making it sound like it's an inherently white trait.

If that where inherently a white trait there wouldn't be people seeking refugee in countries largely populated by white people. But brown, black,  yellow, purple, pink and even red with a golden edge people are just as capable to opress other people hence there are refugees whow flee from the violence that ia necessary tor opress people. It just sucks for immigrants that they go from a very oppressive and corrupt country/culture to a less opressive and corrupt country/culture instead of a none opressive  and corrupt culture. 

 

People in general don't like difference or change, so they try to resist against that change. Even if that change is those people themselves and that they practice their own culture in the country they fled too. Same goes for many immigrants which refuse to integrate. For instance my country knows many people who live here for years or decades and are not able to speak Dutch. 

 

This friction between groups/cultures and this causes mutual disrespect and outings like all white people are evil or all immigrants are terrorist/evil. While in both cases it is only a part of white people and a part of immigramts which are the rotten apples. But in general minorities get more social protection than majorities in Western countries.

There were quite a few people who assumed the shooter was a Muslim, and then when it was discovered it was a white guy, started saying it was a false flag. Yeah, us white guys have it really tough.

I have not seen anybody say that all white men are bad, I haven't seen anyone talking about what we need to do about the "white guy problem". Seriously, stop pretending like we're persecuted.



Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.

So you are a white man and you live an easy middle class lifestyle and have all the luxuries in life. You were born with a silver spoon, private school education, college education and a high flying corporate career making millions on Wall Street, you live in a mega mansion and have trophy wife, collection of sports cars and own a yacht. Sounds like a  very hard life indeed!
