There are parts of the "Western canon" that are definitely overrated (overly verbose Victorian serial novels bug the crap out of me, personally), but this guy is an idiot. You knew that already, though. He probably thinks of great art and literature as being propaganda of old white men which need to be replaced to get with the times, which is ironically pretty racist considering what massive contributions non-Westerners have made to the "global canon" of great literature and other arts. Not even including the Chinese, Japanese, post-colonial Latin Americans, and Indians...

Also murder = power + unlawful homicide. White people cannot be the victims of murder. They can be killed, which is bad, but not on the same level as murder. A PoC, however, doesn't have the institutional power to commit murder against a white person, because white people have the privilege to utilize systems of oppression against marginalized folx to benefit the furtherfication of their own systemic notions of "whiteness" against a whole backdrop of historical and economic otherness and ostracization of blackness in the context of "unemancipation" and capitalistic imperialism over black bodies.

Forgoing a lengthy discussion on the history of whiteness, this guy should read "A Room of One's Own." It's not that white men all agreed to elevate their work over the works of others; they were the only ones with the means to do the work. Some of it's great, some of it's not, and that which is not great is probably largely forgotten. His claim potentially gains greater purchase when we consider the modern era, but women and people of color have produced great works alongside the great and mediocre works of white men. And yeah, white men are still privileged within the publishing industry (again, forgoing a lengthy conversation on whiteness), for reasons intrinsic and extrinsic to that industry, and this is a fine argument to make, but his is a far broader argument that I think the medium has precluded all chance of nuance within. Short answer: he's not quite right, but he's not quite wrong either.

I think everyone (and I mean everyone, not every white person) has racist thoughts, whether these are known or unknown to the thinker. We grew up in a racist culture with a racist history. When white privilege entered mainstream discourse, it illuminated for some how they unwittingly took part in an uneven system, but others reacted to the idea of privilege with revulsion, and in response, they've increasingly driven unconscious, unbidden, historically contingent thoughts into consciousness, owning them as they own the original "slight."

The point being if you want to engage in Marxism tie it to class not race. There is nothing more substantial and real in modern burgerland than networth. Uniting the lower class under the banner of love for anyone poor and hate for anyone at a certain level of wealth is way fucking easier than the cat herding of racism. Marxism is one good meme campaign from reality. Racism is going nowhere and its victories create division not unification. That's why it is encouraged.

All the meme campaign has to accomplish is baby steps. Never mention Marx or stupid tankie imagery. You don't even need to meme rich people bad. Those are all implicit and flow naturally. You have to meme that being poor is an exclusive status and to bully and exclude rich kids. Investment class rich, not doctor level rich. You're associating the imagery of companionship with class and isolation with the ruling class. Then you start a feedback loop because the upper class are already isolated.

>The term Latinx emerged from American Spanish in the early 21st century,[8] and was reportedly first used online in 2004.[9] The term has gained popularity in social media, and is mostly used by community activists and in higher education settings by students, faculty, staff, and some administrators who seek to advocate for individuals living on the borderlines of gender identity.[10]

>Salinas and Lozano (2017) stated that the term is influenced by Mexican indigenous communities that have a third gender role, such as Juchitán de Zaragoza, Oaxaca (see also: Gender system § Juchitán, Oaxaca, Mexico).[10]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latinx

>Latinx is used generally as a gender-neutral term for Latin Americans, but it has been especially embraced by members of Latin LGBTQ communities as a word to identify themselves as people of Latin descent possessing a gender identity outside the male/female binary.

Trump does it, but it's not like American politicians haven't long dealt in white racial animosity. Hell, it was full spectrum up until the last decade, and the "centrist democrats" still talk in less-than coded language about placating white people. White racial consciousness is hardly illegal. It's just that the white consciousness espoused by white nationalists et al. fails to consider the full history of the race. If they did, and if the supremacists came fully into their power, what would follow would be a Balkanization and a restriction of whiteness, where most people who currently think they're white wouldn't make the cut, including many current proponents of a white ethnostate. Instead, these would be cast out of their promised land.

White people have historically contingent privilege. You don't judge a white person on their race, for instance, even if you judge them in other ways. In effect, they don't have a mark against them in the race category. But privilege is systemic, so even though I may be ostracized for my skin, hair, and eye color by various people in Hawaii, that ostracism means little systemically. This is sort of why I don't like the "you can't be racist against white people" claim. In my mind, you certainly can judge a white person for being white, but that judgement does little when the judge has next to no real political or juridical power. Individual acts of violence borne out of racial animosity can still occur, leading even to my death, but those acts don't exist in a compendium of violent acts I've experienced. Nor are they sanctioned. Privilege, I find, is an oft misrepresented idea.

That said, I don't disagree with your statement. I question the utility of always judging everyone against some kind of threat rubric, but whatever. And I might look askance at equating whole social groups with threat, but women can do this to men and be quite empirically sound doing so. But you're correct, judging a threat and removing someone's rights are different tasks, but that claim doesn't lead logically to "'whites'" have no privilege.

I disagree that Marxism is a possibility in our particular historical moment, but yes, if you're going to organize your thinking in a Marxist manner, then you should consider class and not race. However, race presents a particularly poignant problem for Marxism. A Marxist would consider an African American millionaire or even billionaire an enemy of class dissolution, and rightly so, but said African American can and will be judged by juridical powers as lowly as a destitute member of his race. In effect, race supersedes class, at least in America. This is part of the reason why I think Marxism will never take greater-than-meme hold in America. Too many white Americans believe, rightly or wrongly, that race is too important to forget amid class struggle.

I would clearly have an issue with the term regardless of its origin, but my only argument is that said origin is not of any Latin American culture. It's expressly 100% gringo, or at least its source is found on third-wave feminism, which in itself can be said to be a consequence of the gringo's special brand of consumerism.
It's a product of American society. That's all my point is, and you can freely research that yourself (if you want the closest thing you'll get to a solid source, you can start by skimming over the putrid ideas turned into equally disgusting words of Gloria E. Anzaldúa, a woman that can neither speak nor write proper Spanish despite her having her entire idea of self ride over that fact).

Pretty much agreed. though I find the term privlege an aggregated, and in itself abstract one. skin color, or more accurately, the perception of class (not specifically economic) difference (i say this as race is an agrigated term, that is skin color plus bodily traits, plus historic perception of a general group) is definitly one of the most proment aspects of immediate judgement. In americ for example, the "averege joe" is seen as white and male, the narritive center. I think in-group and out-group or some other word would be more apropriate then privlege since it implies advantage and a specific optimal, which is only a strong correlative traite rather than a definitive one. probably would make people less adverse to it too.

I'm a woman and these people's minds are intellectually raped. They can only view the world through white is bad, man is bad, white man IS VERY BAD.

They lose all appreciation for works of art because of the race and gender of the creator. They do this to everything, but the irony is they are the ones who are the destroyers of art and literature.

I've seen people complain historical depictions of Jesus are racist because he looks too white. Classic painting of Africa and Asia, yes, racist, because white man bad.

They're ruining musicals. They made an ear-screeching version of Oklahoma last year with a black lead and it was turned into a reflection on "whiteness", gun violence, misogyny, and "settler colonialism. They complain the musical Carousel is "misogynistic". The King and I is of course "orientalist" and Yul Brynner, a man born in Asia of partial Asian descent, was too white to be Thai and this is an example of "white-washing".

Great works of literature are of course too white. Classical music is too white.

Pander to them and they destroy you. Point out the recent examples of Barnes and Noble being shamed for black book covers or the vitriol directed to the white woman who wrote the pro-migrant Mexican book.

These people are cultural vultures and will destroy anything they touch while never creating anything noteworthy of their own.

The 53% is for underrepresented ethnic minorities, which also affects the number of hired Asians not just whites.
The number for new women is still 38% and BOTH numbers are for all positions in the company, so probably more latino cleaning ladies or negros for the cafeteria.

In the TECH sector only, it's 23-77 females and 49-35-26 for whites, asians, rest. Leadership is even more white.

if they say the whole "racism is prejudice plus power" say "Rather than blaming a black person for shouting racist obscenities at a white person, you blame the white person? nice victim blaming"

Who hold the power in a scenario when a black man throws obscenities at a white man? If you say the white person, you're victim blaming.

Yeah, and only 1 in 15 Electrical Engineering or Computer Science majors are women yet they still make up 23% of tech employees. If you look at enrolled computer science and electrical engineering majors among non-asian minorities you'll see that they're over represented in the tech sector of apple as well.

>and only 1 in 15 Electrical Engineering or Computer Science majors are women yet they still make up 23% of tech employees
And most were employed before anyone cared about diversity, so it's not like they benefited from shit. Imagine how dedicated they had to be to go for a dickfest major.

>you'll see that they're over represented in the tech sector
They are generally over-represented in universities too. Partly due stereotypes, partly due culture obsessing over education.

>trying to create an even playing field
by ltierally fucking discriminating against white and asian men? That is creating an 'even playing field'? You're a fucking liar

also the nepotism you're saying exists is precisely what nobody is allowed to say about Jews. If it applies to whites then it applies to Jews as well.

>White people have historically contingent privilege.
By "white" do you mean European? And if so, do you mean "all Europeans"? By "historically" do you mean "all of history" or are you referring to a period in specific? And where else on this planet, historically, has this been the case? Are you aware that this planet has other continents other than Europe and America?

>You don't judge a white person on their race, for instance
Yes I do. For instance, if they're white and over the age of 50, chances are I won't appreciate anything they have to say.

>real political or juridical power
In no way shape or form does political theatrics play a role in my daily life. I don't watch television or frequent /pol/.

>I question the utility of always judging everyone against some kind of threat rubric
I consider it a primary natural instinct.

>I might look askance at equating whole social groups with threat, but women can do this to men and be quite empirically sound doing so.

This is my point. It's not very probably that I'll be hassled by a group of women, but males aged from 17-35 are a much higher potential thread. Depending on if they're in a large group is another potential threat. Their style of clothing, largely based on economic standing, is also a potential threat.

Depends on their races. Black women can't do it to asian men because they commit more crime.

You're retarded. That 23% comes from Apple's new hire data in 2018. 23% of tech new hires at apple in 2018 were women despite less than 7% of electrical engineering or computer science/engineering students being women. That is a massively disproportionate hiring rate relative to the field unless women just tend to be 3x as competent within the field as their male counterparts and can be very easily attributable to the direct efforts to benefit the hiring prospects of women in tech at the expense of their male competition.

>Money matters way, way more than race in the judicial system
And certain races are in inherently better positions to have that money readily available due to historical and prejudicial factors that can tie into race.
