"Conversation" in the Progressive context always means that they get to air their grievances about how privileged you are and how you have "sinned" and need to commit penance to them.
It is almost never actual dialogue or genuine desire to understand and find human commonality. It is pretty much just a language guilt tripping power play.

Flip the script, and this describes niggers perfectly
Jaxon Green
I've always hated the concept of "derailing" a "conversation". That implies that the conversation was "on rails" to begin with, meaning that this was never a "conversation" between equals, but a lecture by some self-righteous ass hat.
I'm sorry I don't want to sit here and be lectured for crimes I didn't commit, I must be a monster.

Nice lets have a conversation about race
1) race is real 2) africans have an avg IQ somewhere around 80, a full deviation below whites 3) interracial rape is 99% black on white 4) blacks in their teens and early 20's make up 5% of us Population, but over 50% of murders 5) blacks who come from well off families score as well as poor white kids on the SAT

It amazes me how blind black people are to their level of privileged. Unlike white people, they aren't born with it. We GIVE it to them knowing they will only use it against us. How do black people not see this shit?
Oh, that's right, they pretend not to. Just like women. Because not having privilege works to their benefit, so denying all knowledge of it is best.
Fuck off with that.
Lucas Nelson
I'm glad I haven't met a person in real life that thinks like this. Then again, I'd probably just ignore them, but still, racist people from both ends of the political spectrum are fucking retarded.

look at the replies in this very thread. White people lashing out "nigger!" "lynching needs to come back" etc. White people are so fragile that just mentioning their privilege sets them off.

It's more so that when someone wants to have an honest conversation about race they really just want to shit on whites
If whites say anything positive about themselves or negative about others in retort they get shouted down. Whites are stuck between a rock and a hard place.

Is the text in your post real?
I mean, "not all x" was a phrase created by leftists to protect blacks and Muslims, it has nothing to do with white people. This type of argument (the title) is also about the stupidest thing imaginable.
It's like having a conversation like this: W: Hello, my black neighbor. B: wut u say wipipo, dey kiln us erday B: don b so fragil u cant see this W: Nigger. B: WOW WHAT DID YOU SAY I'LL HAVE YOU KNOW THAT'S RACIST AND WHITE PEOPLE GET TRIGGERED EASILY I'M CALLING THE POLICE YOU CAN'T SAY THAT THAT'S ILLEGAL I'M OMBAMA SON
Jacob Phillips
I'll bite.
Everything you said is true. No arguments or disputes, just some comments.
1. If you do not like the fact that everything you said is correct, are you doing anything to help fix it? 2. Do you feel like you should do anything to help fix it, why or why not? 3. The standard: Not all black people are like that. Yes they are the exception & not the rule...but why throw the baby out with the bathwater. 4. If the exception exists that means it is not impossible. So doesn't that mean that mean we should be able to replicate and eventually increase the number the "exceptions". 5. Black on white racism is real. 6. (Some but not all) "Racism" isn't purely the belief that blacks are subhuman, but the fact that based on facts, figures and stats they tend to be more dangerous & more of a threat. Does this suck for "good blacks"- yes. Does it give black people to cry racism at every turn and/or be rude to authority figures- no.
Tyler Baker
Just proving my point that it was never a conversation, but an ideological lecture.
You're kafkatrapping, and you know it.
Colton Kelly
I'm just stating a fact for you. if you feel guilty by that, that's actually a good sign because that means you know there's truth to it.
>offers a polite critique of something a white person has done, and said white person calls the critique an “attack”.
see? you're on the offense immediately.
this is also something that's worth re-quoating for the other people in this thread:

It's funny becasue the only race issues that intelligent well educated blacks have are the type of issue we know is resolved as soon as people get used to interacting with them, just like the problems asians have like people assuming they are not from the US. Once someone is used to being around asians they stop doing those randomly annoying things.
Literally the only thing that can stop racism is for blacks to act like americans the way asians do.

actually you are wrong because you're looking at the wrong way. your crime has already been committed by the virtue of benefiting from being white, why is that so hard to understand?
when you apply for a job, when you travel by plane, when you simply walk through a street, you're constantly benefiting from your white privilege, and that privilege comes from earlier committed crimes by your race.

Something you should consider when dealing with pseudo intellectual liberals who want to criticize white people: Responding to them with aggression, though often justified, only serves to reinforce their beliefs and leave them with a smug sense of self satisfaction (as you see by them labeling it "white fragility").
A much better approach is to respond to their arguments with something that is both true but also casually racist. For example: They might argue that white countries have exploited Africa. You could respond by saying that if it weren't for aid from white countries, Africa would be razed by disease and famine and billions of Africans would die.
This response is good because it's true and also implies that Africans are incapable to surviving without help from white people. This infuriates the liberal.
See my response to "whites benefit from slavery" for another example.
Adam Lopez
Talking/Discussing=/= Lecturing.
If there's no opportunity for you yourself to be wrong or for anyone to disagree with what you are saying, then you are lecturing someone like a professor, someone with expertise or knowledge on a particular subject would. Yes, the student can ask questions, But ultimately the teacher is in control of the classroom and what is taught in it. If the students believe the teacher is talking out of their ass or isn't the expert, then the teacher is forced to rethink themselves.
So yes, it's easy to understand why white people, when they find out they can't disagree or discuss "race relations" (whites vs non-white) they pimp the fuck on with their lives.
Mason Baker
all you have to do to benefit from your own race is go to a country founded by your own race
whites benefit in white countries, because they made them for themselves non-whites benefit more in white countries, because they didn't contribute to the country, yet they reap the benefits of the pinnacle of human civilization found within
if non-whites want to trade their spot in the best countries in the world for countries with privilege for their own race, all they have to do is go home

To all those who hate niggers and are looking forward to seeing them "annihilated".
What are you doing to start the annihilation?
Although I disagree with them wildly, two blatant racists who I disagree with but kinda sorta respect are Dylann Roof & Matt Heimbach.
Roof took it into his own hands. He said that black people shouldn't be in the "white man's" country and actually took physical steps to lowering the black population. And he felt not one ounce of regret for his actions.
Heimbach wants a "white ethnostate". Instead of sitting on his hands he is literally creating a "white village". He bought a large compound for fellow white traditionalists and white families to live in. With enough people and money he could make an all white town. I don't understand why white people who want a space of their own just create a location where technically they are following all the laws, but just make it emotionally unbearable for black people to live in.
What black person would want to live in a town where every white family's lawn says "go home niggers" on it. Everytime a black person spends money in the town it is excepted, but come along with a "I hope you never come back here, nigger"
Its not illegal to be a rude asshole who voices their opinions. Make everything private and you can voice whatever opinion you want.
Parker Diaz
So do black Africans in a majority black African country get "black privilege" for being a part of the majority in their own country? Because it sounds like the basis of your argument is that because white people are the majority demographic in a country they get the privilege of being in the part of the majority.
Logically, the arguments you're presenting could be used to describe "Han Privilege" in China, where because a majority of the population is "Han Chinese" the people that belong to that demographic they have privileges that other chinese minorities don't have, right?
Carson Davis
ah i see, so when whites take offense to BLM members shouting "they're white, get'em", it's because they're "fragile", and not because those BLM members are racist fucks who want to beat up white people because of their skin colour

Maybe when you start "a conversation" from a position that the person you're talking to is bad, you're not going to convince them to adopt your position. Ever.
Also, words aren't violence.
And then when someone else turns your bullshit around on you and says your words are violence, for you to say that's another form of violence is even stronger bullshit.
But all that's cool. You can be boorish and reject other opinions if you want. I don't really care. You don't get to pretend to be neutral or superior, though.

>your crime has already been committed by the virtue of benefiting from being white, why is that so hard to understand? It's very hard indeed, to understand how the circumstance of my birth can make me guilty of any crime. I can't seem to find the law in the criminal code of Canada that mentions benefiting from being white, but maybe I'm just not looking hard enough.
>when you apply for a job, when you travel by plane, when you simply walk through a street, you're constantly benefiting from your white privilege, and that privilege comes from earlier committed crimes by your race. I don't follow. You have listed pretty typical daily activities, that every race actively participates in, in which I can find no institutional barriers to any one or multiple of races from partaking in. And yet because I too can partake in 'walking through the streets' I'm both benefiting (from what I do not know), and thus 'privileged', as a result of as of yet unspecified crimes commited by a 'race'. Races can't commit crimes. Crimes can only be commited by people, and in a limited scope, corporations.

white people "founded" america by first committing genocide on the natives and then used black people as slave labor to build it up. They haven't "made it for themselves", but I'm not surprised that this kind of rhetoric comes from a canadian considering how you treat the aboriginal people.
I suggest you read up on your history.
>Sadly, our history with respect to the treatment of Aboriginal people is not something in which we can take pride. Attitudes of racial and cultural superiority led to a suppression of Aboriginal culture and values. As a country, we are burdened by past actions that resulted in weakening the identity of Aboriginal peoples, suppressing their languages and cultures, and outlawing spiritual practices. We must recognize the impact of these actions on the once self-sustaining nations that were disaggregated, disrupted, limited or even destroyed by the dispossession of traditional territory, by the relocation of Aboriginal people, and by some provisions of the Indian Act. We must acknowledge that the result of these actions was the erosion of the political, economic and social systems of Aboriginal people and nations.

This is brilliant. Most leftist arguments are actually rhetorical (read: emotional). When you get upset because facts are logic won't get through to them you cede the emotional level of argument to them, they win. >if it weren't for aid from white countries, Africa would be razed by disease and famine and billions of Africans would die. is a perfect rebuttal because its a factual statement but it contains an emotional subtext that immediately triggers sjws. You can't win with them until you start speaking their language
