So Eusebius gives 3 examples of why white privilege is still a thing:
> Single-digit unemployment
> Less likely to be discriminated against when trying to find a home
> Presumption of competence when looking for a new job
(Before he shat all over the call, tbh, I have to agree with Stephanie.)
In all 3 examples he's applying identity politics, and defining white people by their race group, and not their individual situation
It doesn't help an unemployed person to tell them "unemployment is so low in your group, you should be grateful". If they're unemployed, then to them, they're 100% unemployed and group stats don't change that.
Discrimination when finding a home: I've seen this in action myself, and it's still a real thing, but it's not nearly as widespread. The discrimination against white-owned businesses for government work is far more prevalent, far more damaging, and Matt called that out correctly.
Same with the presumption of competence. That's an inter-individual thing - you and the employer. Everybody taking a risk will want some assurance that their bet is not just money down the drain, and that shows in hiring practices. Black employers will prefer black employees that look/sound/speak/think like them. That's not a privilege thing, that's just how people operate.
And then at 11:10 Stephanie loses the plot by telling the army-conscripted guy he didn't suffer
"President Cyril Ramaphosa has warned that South Africa will become unstable if the state does not expropriate land without compensation." ~ lolwut?
Countries that become unstable have poor leadership... just saying
Doesnt matter what happens it will become unstable. Whe expropriation goes forwards, somewhere it is going to piss off the wrong farmers and if it doesnt go ahead it will piss off EFF and if it takes to long to happen then BLF are going to shit thier nappies full.
does anyone know who is funding BLF?
No idea, but pretty sure the guptas are involved
hahaha look at this white boy playing victim:

This Adam chop just set back discourse about a year.... we had turned a corner
did we really? I see much worse extreme racism on Twitter..
Julius not calling for the slaughter of whites.. yet is not worse than the K word?
@Rox not the point right now.
The overall narrative was starting to shift and people were seeing through Julius, and a lot of people were starting to see EWC for what it was etc...
This oke going viral undoes a lot of that
its like watching american history x in real life
no @Rox it is not. calling the slaughter of whites is how we will restitute the wrongs of the past
@Tom_Servo couldn't agree more
guys like this is a massive part of the reason why dissenting voices are dismissed as racists. We do need to clean house.
plays into the BLF and EFF narrative
so peeved right now.
Now a guy like Nick Bauer gets to virtue signal and claim to speak for all whites. I have never kept quiet if someone has used a slur in front of me.... Many braai's cut short because of these types of arguments, and some friendships ended over it.
Just because he was too cowardly to say something he thinks all whites are.
My point is that there is just as much racism if not worse from the other side but they are never called out on it
One idiot posts a video and suddenly er are all racists or complicit .. cos "we said nothing"
By that same reasoning then we are all guilty of corruption and fraud beacuse we had Jacob Zuma as a president
@Rox I get your point, it is just not relevant right now. It is like being pulled over for speeding and then complaining that other people are also speeding
there is a double standard in reaction and reporting on racism, but this conversation can't happen on the back of this.
But it is also like saying one guy speeds .. you all need to get tickets
I starting seeing the conversation around double standards happening in earnest, but now it will just be dismissed as whataboutism
WHat has the guy who is speeding got to do with me.. Ive never met the dude... I dont know him
I saw tweets this morning saying kill 5000 whites for this ...or 5m would be better etc...
Is that response not far far worse than the actual crime
@Rox all valid points and conversations that need to happen, but can't happen (or aren't productive) in the immediate wake of this.... Just dealing in reality
I do not condone what he did or said.. in my opinion he is an idiot for doing that in this day and age and especially now with tensions so high
But I do think there is def a double standard that needs to be addressed
The real issue is that people try using social media platforms as extensions of real-world conversations, when they really should be thinking more like publishers and brands
