White-Adjacent Privilege
« on: August 11, 2022, 01:07:47 PM »
Now we white-adjacent privilege for people who are not white enough to be full blown white... or POC who act white... or something. My head hurts.

I was the Black woman that was attacked and degraded publicly by this man who used his white-adjacent privilege to over power me and weaponize his formerly incarcerated status to claim victimhood. This is absolutely offensive. https://t.co/YFhfHRqCkt

    UPDATE: Thanks to everyone in the comments who "called me in" for mis-pigmentizing the dude denounced by @CurlyProfessor. He wasn't "white," as I said. He was white *adjacent*—so like, yknow, Armenian. Or Sephardic. Or a Hispanic guy who voted for Trump. @jonkay regrets the error

Too many not quite white people are doing just fine and not participating in the race war so they have to label them as the enemy. 

Does this include Asian people or are they still just white?

No Bill Thomas, who is a man, can't possibly have male privilege when he's competing against female swimmers. But someone who's a minority can have white-adjacent privilege if they don't think right.

It is easy to get urban blacks to hate Asians, Arabs, and... Africans... They come here, and they become successful.
 
They do things like open stores in bad neighborhoods, because they can afford the rent, and their whole family works there, when they are not studying.

When a leftist cries "RACISM" it's a code word for "I lost this argument, you big meanie!"

It's harder to cry "RACISM" when various POC's are disagreeing with the lefties, but since that's their ONLY default response, they're trying to modify it.

"White Adjacent Privilege"

It's not working - the general responses I've heard tend to vary between  :facepalm:   and     :rofl:
Trump won in 2016. Democrats haven't been so offended since Republicans came along and freed their slaves.

So is "White* adjacent privilege" the new buzz word for "Uncle Tom"?





* If they insist on capitalizing "Black," then "White" gets equal treatment. If they want whites to be spelled with a lower-case 'w,' then "black" gets spelled with a lower-case 'b.'

There is no such thing as a "transgender" person.  Only mental illness that should be discouraged.
