People would respond, "Then how come Trump can be a convicted felon while people get mad at Obama for wearing a tan suit?"

It's not white privilege; it's republican privilege.  Herschel Walker can be a hypocrite on multiple fronts; the American public on average will be more likely to defend it passionately than if Tim Waltz was hypocritical in the same way.

White privilege doesn't exist; republican privilege does.

White privilege benefits all white Americans and not just Republicans. Just like slavery benefited all Americans from the lower cost of labour.

I think individuals and groups by nature and nurture, have more or less advantages, depending on their environments.

The Jews believed they were superior and the chosen people by God to rule the world. The Romans borrowed the concept and religion from the Jews and made it a universal religion with Rome at the top. Europe fought two world wars to establish white dominance then extended colonialism and slavery. Asians think it is their turn to dominate the races. Today, Africa is home to 1.5 billion people. By 2070, the UN expects this number to more than double. Its estimates range from 2.7 billion ...

Sure it does. Poverty seems to happen to black people much more. Well, I am white and poor, but I dont count as average. I am special.

Caitlyn Clark disagrees. As one of the very few good white WNBA players, it's clearly due to her skin color.

Her publicity is because she is white. Better players have been ignored because of their colour.

You are so smart. Way to disprove sociology. 

Certainly white people have zero advantages. Me and any Negro friend I have can walk into a 7/11 and be observed an equal amount by whoever the Indian owner is. 

Wow orange people being politically persecuted somehow proves that white people have zero advantages.

Nobody benefits from slavery that ended 160 years ago.  Otherwise, Brazil would be wealthier wrt gdp per capita than Norway (they aren't because Brazil is run by conservatives and Norway isn't).

I don’t even like Caitlan Clark (especially after her recent comments), but you are just simply lying. 

Her publicity is because she is the best player in the WNBA, a top 25 female player in NCAA history, and brings more revenue than anyone else in the league. 

In fact, she has been literally assaulted by black players (namely, Angel Reese), but unlike you, I won’t cry racism and say that she is being harassed because of her skin color. Instead, I will say that her mistreatment t is due to the other players’ jealousy of her success, which is the truth. 

When you can reach her level of Basketball success, and you make the WNBA, let me know. Until then, go back to sucking the cheeto powder off your fat little thumb in your parent’s basement, you beta-loving cuck.

What is "white" privilege?
White privilege denotes both obvious and less obvious passive advantages that white people may not recognize they have, which distinguishes it from overt bias or prejudice. These include cultural affirmations of one's own worth; presumed greater social status; and freedom to move, buy, work, play, and speak freely.

1. India deported 15% of it's British residents (white people).  This applies to the next 2 items in the list.
4. What does this mean?
5. Larry Elder has free speech.  Cori Bush has free speech; 2 fat black mother fuckers from opposite political parties have free speech.

What did she say?
She said: "I want to say I’ve earned every single thing, but as a white person, there is privilege." Clark told Time Magazine. “A lot of those players in the league that have been really good have been black players. This league has kind of been built on them. The more we can appreciate that, highlight that, talk about that, and then continue to have brands and companies invest in those players that have made this league incredible, I think it’s very important. I have to continue to try to change that. The more we can elevate black women, that’s going to be a beautiful thing.”

Elevating someone on the basis of race should have been a historical footnote, not a vision for the future.

Privilege comes in many forms, patterns etc.

When it comes to decaying biologic matter --or other--- bacteria have the most privilege to consume and replicate their species.

You are wrong. It is UK that is deporting Indian workers. 
Health and care visa applications dropped by a massive 76%. This comes even as many Indian workers are facing deportation from the UK.

Let's do a little thought experiment.

You are a spirit standing next to God looking down on America. God tells you he's about to send you down into the body of an infant to live a full human life and gives you a choice as to what race you'd like to be.

What are you going to choose, or are you going to tell God it doesn't matter?

No one is claiming it's *only* due to her skin color.

If your position was rational and coherent you wouldn't need to misrepresent the positions you argue against.

Feel free to parse her quotes down for us...

"The more we can elevate black women, that’s going to be a beautiful thing.”

"I want to say I’ve earned every single thing, but as a white person, there is privilege."

To me, it's as clear as daylight. Whites are patronizingly superior due to skin color and in the unique position to elevate people who are inferior due to their skin color.

So white privilege does exist.

Yes, according to the massively racist Clark.

Patriotism is your conviction that this country is superior to all others because you were born in it. —George Bernard Shaw

Better to have one privileged class than none at all.

MAGA stands for Make America Great Again. It’s to elevate all classless Americans to greatness.

White privilege is what created white dominance and white supremacy through colonialism and slavery.
