Racism against minorities? Christ, you’re treating being given respect as a human as a privilege instead of the bare minimum.

Not entirelytrue. When looking at % of all people killed by police who are white vs. white % of total population, then yes, white people as a whole are less likely to be killed by police. But this doesn't tell you much.

However, when you breakdown the racial demographics of America's criminal population, white criminals are actually overrepresented in police shootings when compared to black criminals. The reason why black people in general have more police interactions is because they are more likely to be criminals.

Supply and demand. It is illegal for banks to discriminate based on race, and given how touchy they are about regulation and losing their licenses, banks take this very seriously. They go to great lengths to ensure that there is no discrimination. What they do instead, however, is develop customer profiles that try to find patterns between certain characteristics and the likelihood of default. These are race neutral characteristics. What the data shows, however, is that black people are more likely to have characteristics that tend predict loan default, hence their higher denial rates. That's not the fault of anybody, that's just supply and demand.

For job applications, culture fits are often found to be the strongest determining factor of whether or not one is hired. People tend to hire those they will most likely get along with. Make of that what you will.

I wonder, when white people become a numeric minority, what they're going to say about us then.

White privilege doesn't exist. The ignorant and politically ambitious who claim it does are just mimicking the same sort of nonsense conspiracy theories that antisemites propagate against Jews.

If a group of people defined by any characteristic (be it age, gender, race, religion or whatever) are less statistically likely to commit crimes, or more likely to hold a steady income, and you act on those likelihoods, that's not privilege.

White people commit less crime so they get treated better by the cops.
White and Asian people are usually more reliable debtors, so they get better loan approval rates.
Job applications are a tricky one because that's down to the personal view of the person making the call, and I doubt there would be a single statistic to back that up, so it's bs.

They'll complain that we have nice things, and would advocate that they be seized to be given to the "masses." (Assuming this happens. I don't buy into the White Genocide conspiracy theory.)

In the future, I could see rhetoric about "the 1%" eventually just becoming "white people". Not a pleasant thought.

The 1% are already white people, the irony of diversity advocates is they want to create a country where there is a wealthy white upper caste and a poor brown lower caste for the rest of time. As America gets more diverse only its poor and middle class does, the upper class is still very very white and most likely will never change in demography because its that class that controls the country in the first place. Observe South Africa while the middle class and poor whites are hated by the blacks, the rich class lives in luxury and peace of mind while talking about racism.

Well, I'm sure people will appreciate it when wealth redistribution takes on an increasingly racial tone.

The white elites will never accept that, only the white peasants can be forced to give up money to minorities.
