RE: White Privilege? Yes, I am white...
no, i'm sorry, but unless you can read minds, there's ZERO way for you to verify someone's racial bias in that situation unless it's so blatant as to be impossible to ignore (epithets, flat out statements, etc.).
you're just wrong.
Hmmm...
A couple of things here. Simple things actually.
The first thing you said.
Yep. This is true. It's kind of what I said too. Just in different words.
shakes head - Ahh going to pull out the old "I'm right, and you're wrong" little kid argument?
That doesn't ever actually convince anyone of you being right. Proof is a lot more compelling than obstinance.
Yet, if your goal was to give the impression of someone sticking their hands over their head and saying I'm not listening then congratulations. You succeeded. That statement is absolutely brilliant when it comes to that.
I did think about your initial comment to this post when I went back and read my post. You didn't even read it did you? It seems like that is the case since the first two sentences of the post actually address what you said in your first comment.
If you want to have a civil and reasoned discussion I'm all for that. If you want to predetermine you are right and I am wrong then don't bother.
rest assured, once i'm home from work, you'll get a step-by-step breakdown of where your logic falls apart.
if your goal was to sound like a condescending douche, you succeeded.
I look forward to it. ;) Oh and be sure to read the post this time.
Once you so casually decided to just say "you are wrong" I didn't have a single problem being condescending after that. It was intentional. ;)
