    Privilege is not a finite resource.

    It's an infinite resource?

    No surprise really. I've always found that being white has helped me hugely in rural Ireland.

    Its a perfectly cromulent phrase.

    Some non-white guy, I guess.

    With a name like that no wonder he's not getting all these privileges.

    Needs a good solid white name, like Bruce.

    See? Top 12 famous Bruces are white.
    The white guy at number 1 looks a bit funny. He's probably an Inuit. They're REALLY white.

    Looks like young white men now have the lowest perceived positive qualities in the UK. An interesting stat is that UKIP voter hold them in lower esteem than voters of the other mainstream parties.

    Link to interactive yougov poll results.
    "Most hated on" made me think are you American? Also in an Irish context there is no black v white dynamic. It used to be prods v RC's. But now it is now multicultural and everyone loves everyone (practically). The main thing Irish people have to worry about is how much the Gingers should be tolerated! :) I just saw a programme about the KKK in the USA. Both the "black power" v "white power" people were equally uneducated. In Ireland we never had strong divisions of colour as most people wanted to leave this country and not travel here. There is even no divide on religion anymore. As the churches power has waned. The only divide in Ireland is education.

    Guff about stuff, and stuff about guff.
