Of course decent people hope for that. I wasn't trying to say otherwise. I was just making a point that it doesn't take a lot of self-awareness to realize you have a racial privilege.

OP's statement however, is based on simple math. She has a 'privilege' if you will because the numbers are in her favor. The fact that the numbers are in her favor means that the numbers are against someone else*. By the terms that OP chose, it is the definition of a zero sum game.

As I mentioned, I was just pointing out that the fact that they posted it here in F!S implies they are well aware this is something to be ashamed of, and that's a big leap to assume they don't feel guilty about that gratitude or situation just because they feel that gratitude for their situation in the first place.

If you think that everything posted here is something that people are actually ashamed of, rather than something they would like to say without being criticized for it, then your understanding of this community is fundamentally different than mine.

But we've been through this, I don't have anything to add. Thanks for your perspective.

[nyxelestia]

I don't think everyone who posts something here is ashamed of it. I'm just saying that most of them are well aware it's something to be ashamed of, and that typically implies a certain level of guilt to go with it. That's why I said that unless someone says something to actively indicate a lack of guilt, I assume they feel as much because of the context of the community.

And I appreciate your politeness. You're a lot nicer than some of the people online I've been arguing/debating with, lately, even here on F!S. :)

[likeadeuce]

Hey, I appreciate that you are supporting your argument with thoughtful reasoning, even if I don't agree with it.

We should have more of that!

Oh, if only...

In the meantime, I try to think of having my long and well-prepared arguments being responded to with trolling and nonsense as preparation for when I (hopefully!) eventually get to law school. :P
