Ah, to you. Okay. So you can't prove white privilege exists, and objective evidence tell you that Muslims among others are being discriminated against. So, all in all it's just pure speculation. No, it's a conclusion based on objective, hard statistical data. If you can produce factual evidence and statisticscal data from a credible source that says otherwise I'll happily reconsider my viewpoint. It’s based on a study made years ago and speculates about the reason. In my opinion the reading that these people were ignored was because their names pointed to ethnicity groups that were generally more difficult or less competent. What the ‘ white privileged’ peddlers are claiming is the people paid to recruit employees are deliberately working against the interests of their own employers . |

So, if white privilege exists in Britain. Does that mean black privilege exists in Zimbabwe? Brown in Saudi Arabia and India, yellow privilege in China? Or do believe this 'theory' is only a white phenomenon? Yes that stands to reason for me. So, to encapsulate it properly, it is 'majority privilege'. I would agree with that. |

You never refuted my point because you can’t . You constructed a straw man instead . What's your evidence that women are more subservient in Islam? The cult of Islam is a medieval religion . You know this already. |

So their CVs were rejected because of the ethnicity indicated by their names, thus proving discrimination. |

Did they say why? Was it because 'we don't want funny coloured people spoiling the look of our galleries'? Hopefully the beginning of a major trend, next being the Crown Jewels?
..and the various statues. |

If a person aged 70 applied for a job as a lap dancer ,the potential employee would probably give the job to a younger person . Unless you claim anyone should be given any job or at least get an interview for any job then you are just being obtuse and / or missing the point . |

It creates victimhood in the minds of those who need to be victims. |

From the main facts and figures on the Gov.UK website there could be a number of reasons for them. For example: 16-24yr olds of all ethnicities had the lowest unemployment rate. They could have poor English. There could be cultural reasons due to their ethnic background. They could be unemployed on paper and work cash in hand. They may not be interested in working. They may have family commitments. They may prefer being on benefits. They may lead a life of crime and prefer to earn their keep this way. There could a number of reasons, including discrimination. |

I'm sure our old Dad who left school at 14 and became a pony driver down the pit would have found the concept of 'white' privilege completely baffling.

That would still be evidence of age discrimination. |

Arguing about semantics seems to be missing the point for me. I wouldn't call changing a racist undertone as something to being semantic. That's the point for me. Telling white people they are privileged isn't going to induce a cohesive society. And that's what you're all about with social injustice. Especially when there are many impoverished white people in Britain. |

There could a number of reasons, and included possibly discrimination. Yes you could reach for other explanations but when one combines the ONS data with the CV study in which none of the factors you have listed are applicable, suggests to me that the most obvious explanation is the correct one. |
