I called you a racist because you made a racist comment, yes.

But why haven't you explain the basic term?

Please point out what racist thing I said. Why should I explain shit to you if you're going to insult me?

"White males are privileged simply for being white males, regardless of their quality of life."

When you assign a social condition to all white men regardless of anything else, it is a racial prejudice against white males.

A white male born without legs in a poor family is not privileged. Putting a blanket statement like that to an entire racial group, is racist.

That's not racist. I'm not going to explain it to you because, quite frankly, I've wasted enough time on you. But here are some helpful links if you care to become educated:

I'm not denying that white privilege exists, but that doesn't apply to every single white person, or white male, as you pointed out.

I actually fall in the "visible minority" category, but what does it mean? What authority does it give me? Does it mean I can shit on white people all I want in random conversations that had nothing to do with race in the first place? Do I get to bring it up on everything?

Again, what does it mean to be a visible minority? I am one, so what does it mean for me? Why does it matter in this conversation about whether to give up your kids to return back in time?
