It simply means being white will never count against you in any way, whether you are rich/poor or a saint/sinner. A rich white person is always just "a rich person". A white criminal is just a "criminal"

The same can't be said about other races some of whom have been in North America/Europe for generations.

If some black guy commits a murder, there will inevitably be a comment in the article about how their entire race is predisposed to violence. If an Asian person makes it rich it's because he's a robot and they're genetically predisposed to being good at Science/Math/kung fu/whatever. None of this shit applies to White people. People don't troll racist shit in articles about White people.
I was referring to this very point. You believe that color people are at a disadvantage by the virtue of some common stereotyping, where we, as a society, have prejudice toward a particular race while giving a pass to another (white in particular).

And yet somehow you guys are ok when the policies are made so that it's ok to have a prejudice against one race (white, mostly... believing they don't need it) while giving a pass or benefit to another?!?

IMO, the decision should always be merit based and race neutral. It's like how we provide disability benefits... they are given by the merit that this group of people have certain physical disadvantage/limitation and the benefit are given so that they can live out their life. It doesn't matter what color you are.

Any policy made without race neutrality is just asking for trouble down the road. If you create a benefit for "African-American", what is stopping for Chinese-American, Indian-American... so on to ask for their own version? Why does black get preferential treatment? Heck... anyone should be able to claim they are African decent as all human emerged from Africa.

It's not surprising that a guy who talks about his generational wealth doesn't understand generational disadvantages, but you aren't interested in understanding so whatever at this point.

at that point they are just hating on each others culture not because of the colour of their skin. its a lot worse when someone judges you just by seeing you from a distance.

Yeah like 100 years ago? White people are all mutts now at least in North America.

Us Asians need to start fucking more with each other to quash the idiotic Jap/Chink/Korean/Viet beef we still have going.

With all due respect I didn't realize you represented the entire Indian diaspora. I'm just regurgitating what I've been told by one coworker, I didn't call him out and tell him he's full of shit but then maybe I'm just naive. The guy actually full on moved BACK to India and took a huge pay cut because he didn't like it here after several years. *shrugs*. Now that's crazy.

Edit: It's literally a thing
Maybe FOBs go back to India for medical procedures, but I've never heard of an Indian born in Canada going to India for one. I'd rather have a veterinarian work on me than a doctor at an Indian hospital. Also a good way to get your organs removed and sold on the black market.

Everyone just hates everyone else. Unless they are from your exact neighbourhood and even then, if that guy has a better house or car, he's a dead man.

Should we have an identify your ethnicity thread? Would that be racist?

Looks like there are some real surprises.

I'm white btw.

Do you all see Harvey Spectre's posts and Hondaracer posts differently now?
