Lol, no. This is what happens when you don't talk to real leftists and spend all your time circlejerking each other.

Calling someone privileged because they are white is because whiteness bestows privileges. You're like, "No, it doesn't!"

White people own 86% of wealth and make up 60% of the population

...the homeownership rate for white households was 75 percent compared to 45 percent for Black households, 48 percent for Hispanic households, and 57 percent for non-Hispanic households of any other race.

White High School Drop-Outs Are As Likely To Land Jobs As Black College Students

And there's plenty more. There is a very strong correlation between a white skin color and being anywhere other than the bottom of the social strata in the United States. Whiteness as privilege is just a shortened quip that captures that idea. You're essentially attacking a strawman.

Now, I will admit that #NotAllWhitePeople are as privileged as the white label might suggest. I've lived in Dayton, OH, hollowed out by automakers outsourcing their operations to Mexico, and they are clearly very poor. That East Palestine train débâcle is a case in point. And it flies in the face of the fact that middle-aged white men, generally considered to be the wealthiest, kill themselves at a higher rate that any other demographic.

Can you be more specific on who you are talking about. The world is more complex than black yellow and white.

Uhh be more specific how?

I'm quite evidently not talking about the whole world, only a small portion of it.
