[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You tell your Polish friend to commit a crime, any crime, from jaywalking to murder and then you tell them to compare the circumstances of their arrest and the harshness of their sentence (if any) to that of a person of color who committed the same crime.[/quote]

You tell your Polish friend to walk into a bank and apply for a loan, any loan, from a personal to a small business or a home equity and then you tell them to compare their interest rate to that of a person of color who has an equal if not better credit score (assuming the person of color even got approved).[/quote]

You tell your Polish friend to get behind the wheel of a car with a broken taillight and drive, just drive around like that for six months, and then you tell them to compare the number of times they got pulled over by police to that of a person of color who was driving the exact same car with a busted taillight in the same areas over the same timeframe.

So now your Polish friend has to commit a crime, apply for a loan, somehow find a car with a broken taillight (can she just break it herself?), and drive around for an unspecified period of time.

She should've just kept quiet. But I guess she was too white-privileged to do that. [/quote]How do you even survive with such dumb train of thought.[/quote]

How do I survive? Isn't it obvious? White privilege  :wink: [/quote]
