Racism doesn't mean white people dont suffer or struggle.
It means white people don't struggle because of their race.

Minorities have to deal with all the things white people do just add in racism.

Yes, actually I can but that has no relevance here whatsoever.
One of the many problems is that white people have opportunities minorities never will.
That is what white privilege is.



Not like you will listen.

During the 2015–2016 school year, Black students represented only 15% of total US student enrollment, but they made up 35% of students suspended once, 44% of students suspended more than once, and 36% of students expelled. The US Department of Education concluded that this disparity is “not explained by more frequent or more serious misbehavior by students of color.”[1]

In New York City, 88% of police stops in 2018 involved Black and Latinx people, while 10% involved white people. (Of those stops, 70% were completely innocent.)[2]

In one US survey, 15.8% of students reported experiencing race-based bullying or harassment. Research has found significant associations between racial bullying and negative mental and physical health in students.[3]

From 2013 to 2017, white patients in the US received better quality health care than about 34% of Hispanic patients, 40% of Black patients, and 40% of Native American patients.[4]

Black women are 3 to 4 times more likely to experience a pregnancy-related death than white women, even at similar levels of income and education.[5]

Black Americans are more likely than white Americans to be arrested. Once arrested, they are more likely to be convicted, and once convicted, they are more likely to experience lengthy prison sentences.[6]

Black Americans and white Americans use drugs at similar rates, but Black Americans are 6 times more likely to be arrested for it.[7]

On average, Black men in the US receive sentences that are 19.1% longer than those of white men convicted for the same crimes.[8]

In the US, Black individuals are twice as likely to be unemployed than white individuals. Once employed, Black individuals earn nearly 25% less than their white counterparts.[9]

One US study found that job resumes with traditionally white-sounding names received 50% more callbacks than those with traditionally Black names.[10]

In the US, Black workers are less likely than white workers to be employed in a job that is consistent with their level of education.[11]

Holy fuck this guy is still doing this poor black people thing?


Here is a new statistic for you. 40% of Hispanics in a new poll find the term “Latinx” offensive.

No one said poor anyone I am just laying out the facts.
No one made you read it or reply to it.

every time I see you it’s about oppression and bla bla bla. Be fucking grateful you are an American.

I would not expect you to understand.

Because you assume I am a privileged straight white guy lol. I know. The first thing you ever said to me is that you are black, solidifying your victim mentality.

Wrong, like usual. Trust me I am no victim.
I would never say that.
Pointing out racial injustice and discrimination is not playing a victim.
Same old stuff. Get some original lines instead of repeating white supremacists talking points.
I forgot everyone is wrong but you. Go figure.

You are no victim, yet the very first thing you did was identify yourself with a racial group, say “white privilege” and let me know how tired you are of being discriminated against. In the United States of America. Put down your smart phone and get over yourself.

There are no talking points involved here, nor did I say you were wrong about anything. This is just me talking. You are not a victim. It is disgraceful how you continuously play the oppression card.

How do you think I feel you just have to hear about it.
I have to live through it.

Youre a trans cashier.
