In what way did WP end when segregation did? But, segregation didn't end. Only in a legal sense. Today we are as segregated, it just isn't forced through law. The school I went to was 99.9% black. Most schools and neighborhoods are segregated.
Well, trying to steal an election seems antithetical to Conservatism and the values we as conservatives claim to enshrine-yet we tried to do just that these past couple years. I wouldn't define Social Security as Conservative either, but most of us support it. I guess nothing is black and white, and most people don't have a pure class spec in their politics.

Voting, for example.
You can, but most people wouldn't dispute that Japanese culture values politeness. And if I were to talk about black Urban culture, most people wouldn't have any reservations about what I meant by that. Every group has a brand, that is to say that claims about white culture, are non illegitimate.

I could say that darker skin helps reduce skin cancer risks and therefore black is treated better. "That's a bad faith comment, no further explanation is needed.

It Explicitly gave rights to white people over blacks.
Culture is a collective of norms, traditions, behaviors, perceptions and attitudes. If I say that white people are racist, I see that statement no different than if someone said that the Japanese are polite and value honor.
White privilege is white people being treated better for simply being white.
So because I can share something online, you are saying that means there is no white privilege?

Right from the very writing of founding documents, but really before then. It was the culture. It was the way of life. Slavery is just a reflection, and outcome of that culture. But We had white privilege after slavery too, so I don't focus on slavery.
The media is the media. They will say whatever to get money. To me the media is irrelevant, not to mention you have many in media who aren't "woke", like fox news, or people like Jordan Peterson, who actively want to preserve a white identity status quo. In fact, those right wing outlets are the most popular. If I was ever down on my lick, needed a career change and had zero integrity, I would be one of these black, right wing talking heads that people on the right love so much. But the Media wasn't responsible for implementing widespread white privilege in racism, even if they did inflame it; I am not convinced that Privilege is conferred by a few companies making news/commentary. They can definitely perpetuate it, though.

The country was founded on racism and white privilege. People who suggest that it doesn't exist, have a burden of proof to demonstrate when exactly it ended, with observable, and repeatable scientific evidence.
