Wisconsin Officials Encourage White Teens to Wear “White Privilege” Wristbands

^-That's an ad for the program. Here's the link to the article

A friend of mine posted the link on FB and pointed out how the comments prove racism still exists. He thinks the program is actually a good thing, encouraging white high school teens to wear wristbands reminding themselves and others of their white privileges.

Head is full of fuck.

Where do I pick up one of these wristbands?

If they did this campaign with black people they'd have to use white out to write on their faces, weird to think about.

Obama voters spotted.

I have yet to see or hear of anything like this at ground zero. So instead of shaving heads whites get to show their superiority with a wristband

This must have been what it felt like to watch Nazi collaborators, except these people completely degrade themselves and surrender all dignity.

Perhaps they should flog themselves in the street and publicly apologize for being born white as well. Have you ever witnessed a group of people disgrace their race to this level? Do you see how dangerous white guilt can be?

And if I'm thinking this, imagine how Dresden feels.

These people don't deserve to be white.

I'm quite certain I did...

What you just implied is that there's some sort of superiority to being white, maybe you should wear that wristband they're talking about?

Racism is stupid.
Hellblazer is stupid.

I'm glad as fuck I'm a straight white male, no better combo to be!

Unless of course affirmative action gets in your way.

And the Straw Man Stirs the Drink (of kool-aid, that is).

What was implied was that it's wrong to be ashamed just being virtue of skin color. If nothing else, it suggests permissible retribution by other races.

But then again, maybe they should be ashamed. It's not as it Whites had anything to do with the vast majority of our civilization's artistic and scientific achievements.

I lol'ed twice. One for the comment and the other for Jeffrey

"These people don't deserve to be white"

So if they don't deserve to be white, then what color is more fitting?

You do understand the difference between superiority and privilege, right?

A nice shade of green. I've always liked green.

 

[Roundhouse]

This is some shit headed by Jews teaching blacks to run this campaign

Yes I do, my response still stands if superiority is replaced with privilege. Feeling "privileged" about the color of your skin? Sounds like a strong parallel to brain dead "proud to be an American" people.

When I first started posting here, I was like

"Does this hellblazer guy seriously have credibility on here? These people are all fucking lunatics"

And then I realized he's like that fat kid with aspergers that snuck his way into your group of friends that you just tolerate because you feel bad for him and find him *kinda* funny every once in a while.
