awkward...sure. but perhaps he was spilling that white male privileged talking points. if that were the case, and they were on the radio(no visuals.) then of course she would say that. and that actually is more of the point than what he actually looks like. Because the point is, what you're saying out of your mouth sounds like white male privilege. and we know Fox news has a bunch of non white hosts that sound like white males especially when the topic comes up about race or sex(in regards to women). I've heard black men, black women, white women, sound like white guys when talking about those topics. and its shameful.

I might not agree with the black conservative guy’s view but you can’t just pigeon hole everybody by race, he should be allowed to present his view as a black man and not get attacked like that

Sure it's awkward, but it's just as wrong to hold up this one exchange and parade it around as a reason to say white privilege doesn't exist, as I am sure some will do.

It is possible to be a person of color and also have regressive views that put you in the same camp as those who have benefited from white privilege.

Which is to say, if a person of color is going to spout rhetoric like he's Tucker Carlson, he or she shouldn't be given a pass for that.

I don't think that's what's happening necessarily. It's being paraded around because a) it's pretty funny and b) it highlights how terms like that, among others more and more these days, are weaponized as a debate tactic in an attempt to shut the other person down and just end the conversation right there.

This guy happened to be black and so it stands out, but if he were white, people would think ohhhh yeaaahhhh woke, even though it is clear she just threw it out there in desperation.

Of course, this is a tactic utilized far more by the right than the left. Hell, you could say it was invented by William F. Buckley Jr. and carried into modernity by Fox News. Debating people like this is a losing endeavor from the start.

thats all i was saying.

even though its kind of funny she didnt know that he was black. its actually a sad indictment on him to be honest. similar to how broke white republicans talk about tax cuts for the rich as if they are actually rich but then you find out they're not and you're sitting there like wait...so why are you spouting all of that rich guy rhetoric and you're not even benefiting from it? Actually you are being harmed by it. Makes no sense and those people need to be outed as not making any sense.

No, she through it out there because the black guy sounded like a white privileged white guy. I see you keep trying to tip toe around that point ring. See, i know when you posted this you never once thought someone would actually figure out the true reason why she assumed the guy was not black.
You thought the plot twist was that he was black. Nope, the plot twist is that he was a black guy sounding like a white privileged white guy

LOL. Well, apparently she has lowered the bar even further as you don't need to be white anymore to benefit from white privilege, you need only to "sound" white! Haha.
