Yeah but speaking as a poor white person, I'm pretty sure life has given me less shit than I would've got as a poor black person given the same life circumstances. And if my parents had been black I'm not even sure both of them would've survived long enough to have me, and certainly not to see me reach adulthood. I'm almost blinding white so maybe I'm talking out of my ass, but I think a black millionaire who was born into wealth would on average have an easier life than a white working poor person who was born into poverty, but that doesn't mean white privilege isn't a thing. It just means class privilege is an even bigger thing.

So, you're agreeing with what I said? I essentially feel the same, as I said I do think there are benefits to being white even if you are poor.

Of course class privilege exists as well and that can have an effect on things and is probably why some people might think other privileges they have feel... less? I know how when you don't have money it's hard to feel "privileged" but I think that comes from a misunderstanding of what privilege is. Even someone who is a part of an oppressed group in one area can have privileges in others.
