So they have rights… but face discrimination like pretty much everyone who’s not a straight, white male who isn’t trans…

I agree. Sounds like they get treated like everyone else to me

You mean like everyone. Even straight white males can face discrimination especially when they are poor or disabled. This racist privilege rethoric really just needs to go on all fronts.

Whatever lmao

Im not going to go back and forth with someone who doesn’t understand the concept of white privilege or systemic racism. If you don’t want to acknowledge it why waste my effort.

That poor or disabled white man may not get to flex his privilege with the reach of an able bodied and slightly wealthier white man- but he’d be a lot better off than a poor disabled white woman or poc of either sex.

Also- I didn’t say that someone disabled or poor wouldn’t be discriminated against, but you’re kidding yourself if you don’t think a poor or disabled white male would still have more privilege than a poc or even white female in his shoes. That’s the point. Even if white males (including the trans ones) do experience some form of discrimination, they will still inevitably receive better treatment than any other demographic. Poor white guy gets arrested at the same time as a wealthy black man for the same crime- which one do you think is getting shot or more jail time?

There are plenty of places where white poor people are being turned away from food kitchens because they are white and have less help because they are white.

You are absolutely delusional and racist if you think anyone except rich people, no matter their colour, have privilige.

Who is getting shot? have you actually checked those statistics because 2x more white people are getting shot by cops in the US then black people sweet heart. If you compare crime statistics per race its even a lot worse then you think. And if you think a wealthy black man will even get time compared to a white poor kid you are a lot more stupid then you think.

Lmao like I said, I’m not wasting time with people who don’t understand what white privilege is or what systemic racism is. That’s not what this sub is for and I spend my whole life hearing people tell me that white people have it oh so bad, even worse than the people they hold privilege over.

It’s hilarious that you’re calling me stupid (like really??? You’re that pathetic that you jump to that? Lol) for knowing how black men are treated in this country, particularly in comparison with white men lmao. Can’t even be mad because you’re too ignorant to be upset with.

Are there instances where a white male may not get special treatment or privilege or may be denied something, may even get shafted? Yes. Does that negate white privilege, or male privilege as a whole? No.
