Do you believe a heavily tattooed white person gets the usual "white privilege"? that some believe whites receive?
Depends on what they are.
But a heavy tattooed POC will be treated very differently than their white counterpart
Yes I guess so, many think that tattooed persons aren't as trustworthy, etc., as people without them.
So a non-tattooed White person would have better chances to get the job.
It's about Whites persons, do you really want to start a race war? Just stay on topic and don't bring inconvenient stuff into this discussion.
The thread is obviously made with the intention of it being a "race war." The second white privilege is brought into the conversation, it becomes a conversation about comparison between whites and other races.
Well, he said "White Person", he only talked about Whites, so from his post it's only about Whites. While she brought Blacks into this.
You could think that his second sentence may lead to a race war, but she obiously fell for it, if it was his intention.
Can you comprehend what you read? I'll repeat it so you can try again.

I don't know how to put it that you understand what I'm saying.
Not everytime somethings about Whites we have to bring Blacks into this and the other way around, he just wanted to show that Whites don't automatically have "White privilege".
Imo mostly it depends of how you present yourself, but that's not the topic.
I guess it depends on how you interpret things, if you want to make everything about race you'll interpret it your way.
The concept of privilege revolves around having access to things or perks that other people do not. How do you determine if someone has privilege? Through comparison. Privilege means "You have more of or better than others." Follow me so far?
You can only determine that something has better than or more of than others by looking at what it has, and comparing it to what others have. You feel me?
White privilege means "White people have better than or more of than." If you've had your brain on for the above, you might remember privilege is a comparison. Now, by associating the privilege to white people, the basis of the comparison becomes race.
Did that work for you?
Sorry to knock you down but im white and am on the low end wage wise and dont have all the fancy crap blacks imagine whites have im not a busness owner while you see many whites as head executives the majority of whites have to scrape by with what they have so its about as unfair to compare the rest due to the few

White privilege- the concept itself has the scope of all races, what we say within the subset of white privilege then doesn't matter when the question is inherently flawed.
