[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People are tired of hearing about "their privilege" OP just because they are white. I'm white and grew up w/ 8 kids in my family. Am I "privileged" compared to people who grew up in most of the rest of the world? Yes. Did my people get killed in the Holocaust? Yes. I don't consider that a "privilege". Not everyone who is white feels the "privilege" they are ascribed to having by the media and are frankly tired of hearing about it.[/quote] Comparatively not everyone who is Latino is an illegal immigrant and are frankly tired of being presumed to be. Comparatively not everyone who is Muslim is a terrorist and are frankly tired of being presumed to be. Comparatively not everyone who is black is a criminal and are frankly tired of being presumed to be. Which end of the stereotype spectrum would you rather be on? [/quote]
