So far, I really can’t make a lot of sense of this white privilege thing. Maybe I’ll have a come to Jesus moment as I look into it more.
But black people are walking white ppl through privilege checking tutorial style like they are a labor coach when they by definition would have no experience of it, saying things like “the shame and self-hate is good, that means it’s working!!”, making cutesy graphic animated videos that hinge their point by cookie cutting all white people into a single life history, and that harmless, meek as fuck white people are kneeling and apologizing for it on command when they have nothing to do with systematic racism and had no say in that “privilege” in the first place. Here it is being touted as some sort of superpower. Is it a good thing or a bad thing? Should check it and get rid of it or hold onto it and use it for good? I don’t get it.
Should I expect anyone who is richer than me to apologize for living a more privileged life? That’s fucking retarded. If white privilege is the blissful ignorance of racism then it’s also true I have been the recipient of racism for being white all this time and just not known it. My white privileged is absolutely being checked alright, because I’m just now realizing how racist the BLM movement is.
It’s racist as fuck to assume I got where I am only because I am white. That goes for my parents and ancestry too.
Help me out here guys.
