Serious / Re: How has white privilege helped you in your life?

>gets asked to define white privilege after provoking an argument
>"OHMYGOD SO INFURIATING IM BASICALLY BEING ASKED TO DEMONSTRATE MY BUZZWORD OF THE DAY YOU SHOULD ALREADY KNOW THIS YOU WHITE DEVILS"

Why is it when you get to brass tacks with these people they always find some slippery sleight of hand to dodge the questions being asked? I mean, I guess he provided some semblance of an answer, but not before throwing a fucking temper tantrum about it.

I think the most infuriating thing is that white people are never asked to do anything about white privilege, just accept it and feel bad about it. And when asked to define it, the author throws out the pathetic analogy to asking a fish to describe water  -- we're so used to it we don't even see it. How convenient.
If white privilege is genuine, why the fuck would white people do anything about it?

Shit man, I want to make life easier for myself, not harder.

I completely agree.

All other instances of Protestantism were founded almost baselessly, purely due to the desire of people to be different or stand out.

It never after had as much importance as when roman culture was finally overthrown in the Germanic states.

who cares

also, what is the point of /vg/ if there's already /v/

i think i've had this explained to me before, but i filtered out the explanation, because it was stupid

4chan is stupid

/v/ these days is basically a containment board for the stupid. Basically /b/ 2.0.  /vg/ is where you go if you want to do something other than fling shit and repost epic vidya maymays all day.

One thread allowed at a time per topic so all discussion is centralized and easy to find.
/vg/ is a shithole in my (limited) experience.

/tesg/ on /vg/ is literally nothing but shitposting and waifufags.

Funny enough the only place you can find decent TES discussion on 4chan is /tgesg/ on /tg/ every weekend.

Can't talk about gun control on /k/ because it's apparently /pol/ related
Now we won't be able to talk about military history because it'll be /hist/ related

So, what the fuck will we talk about? Just tripshits in /arg/ and weebshit in /ak/ threads?
FUCK HIROSHIMOOT

But from an explosion of research beginning in the 1990s, we now know that the human brain uses stereotypes without our awareness or consent. Our brains want to ascertain, as quickly as possible, whether new individuals are “safe” or “like me” or “in my tribe.” It uses stereotypes as a kind of shortcut. We are all susceptible to these judgments, and because they are so fast, a learned stereotype is very difficult to avoid.
It talks about this like it's a bad thing.

the United States are surrounded by messages of white as default, white as safe, white as best. And we internalize those messages. We pick up the signals all around us, starting as young children, often without our knowledge.
Those signals are in the picture of the white police officer in uniform next to the picture of the unarmed black man he shot looking scruffy and dangerous. They are in the viral media coverage of the black woman slapping her son instead of the one performing surgery on someone else’s child.

Ever heard of a Blue Dog? A lot of southern states vote Red in response to social issues, but often vote Blue regarding economic issues. They're fence dwellers.
This.

My family on the coast are all extremely conservative, but they've been voting blue since the 60s.

Why waste money on helping people when it all could go to our insanely high military budget to develop weapons and vehicles that are not going to get used?
That military budget is the reason the USA can afford the standards of living it has.

>''But that Sweden would use its own agents on the internet to spread ''half truths'' is according to the defence minister Peter Hultqvist ''completely out of the question'', reports Aftonbladet. The defence minister instead refers to the swedish etablishment as the source of truth.''
That's too bad. I always thought the West should do something to counter the russian 30 ruble army (AKA putins internet fuckboys) on the internet in some way, possibly through a counter troll program. Although to be fair, Russia is not the only country to pull this shit. Pretty much every state has its own network of misinformation trolls, Hasbara being a prominent example.

Also, couldn't the west simply just cut off internet access to Russia so as to silence the Kremlinbots?
lol what

I can't tell, does the Swedish government just flat out hate swedes, or have they gotten to the point where they can't even comprehend dissenting opinions? I also can't tell which is worse.
Simple realpolitik.

Swedes, like most indigenous European ethnic groups, are not growing. They're getting old and the labor pool is shrinking because they're all educated.

So the parties in power import third worlders. This has two benefits- it keeps the labor market full while also providing a steady supply of new, poor, and loyal voters to whichever party brings in the most and promises the most gibsmedats.
That's fucked up and how you go extinct.
The last real Swedes died with Karl XII anyway.
Karl XII was a Turk lover

Technically yes, but there is an argument to be made about whether or not shit dumped out on a public street, clearly unwanted, can be considered "fair game".

28%
Only 28% managed to get a single fucking C?

I mean, I would have said I'm not surprised going by the kind of mouth breathing peasantry* that infested the lower sets at school but not even a third of poor students managed to get a C? Ugh.

*Before some yank rides in on his moral high horse about muh classism, being a filthy peasant in this context has nothing to do with your social class. It's the trogs who have zero inclination to apply themselves at school.

My family was poor as shit, bugger all income and a mountain of debt. Free school meals and textbooks because we had zero money, I don't mean not a lot I mean we were flat broke. And yet, I still managed to walk out of highschool with three times as many GCSEs as the average student.

You work hard, you do your studying and you put school above football/drinking with your lads or whatever the fuck they do nowadays - and you will do fine.

We should have brought back the grammar schools a long time ago, trying to shovel every kid through the same system doesn't bloody work. The workers need practical jobs and skills for a trade, the academics need to not be held back by the gumby of the classroom.
But see when I say something like this, people start shitposting about bootstraps.

This is just hilarious.  I really hope this show continues in the hopes that people will start waking up to what a mess the Republican party is and start cleaning House.  Bring back the Eisenhower Republicans instead of this loony fringe that has taken over.
