Are you suggesting because you don't personally experience what is described as white guilt that it's not a valid concept within sociology?

For all the words you've posted so far (after being the guy to bring the topic up) you still haven't addressed whether or not it's a valid concept or really anything except that you've had some struggles, that you don't feel any personal attachments to why people might feel white guilt and that therefore it's stupid and shouldn't be considered as though your mind is the only mind out there processing the facts and that the members of a society might feel differently than you on a wide number of topics and that they might be influenced by how they feel instead of how you feel. For starters white guilt isn't based around personal guilt, your statement I feel sorry, but not guilt would be typical of how many people would express their white guilt.

I think QAnon is BS, but I recognize that it's a valid topic to discuss how it influences people.

It's interesting that Fox owned media like Sky News is more credible than the FBI?

Most peculiar?

I am saying, the concept that *all* Caucasians have collective guilt, due to their genetic coding, is absolute nonsense.
It is as absurd as saying all humanity is burdened with original sin simply because Adam and Eve enjoyed some hanky-panky.
Do you agree?

No one should feel guilt for something that they're ancestors, or particular group they belong to, had done, but which they personally were not responsible for.

Of course the notion that it's related to genetic coding is absurd, but that's not what the concept of white guilt states so it's a weird angle to approach the topic from.

It's never been suggested to stem from anything inherent to white people (since the notion of white people is a social construct) and to instead stem from empathy being triggered when learning about colonialism, slavery, The Holocaust, institutional racism within colonial states, etc. When people find out their people, their nation did that most people feel empathy and compassion for those harmed by those actions and institutions.

This empathy and compassion is sometimes parodied as a sense of personal guilt by some commentators, but that doesn't mean that that's an accurate take on the concept.

It's fair to say most people (whether white or otherwise) will feel sorrow, compassion and empathy for people harmed by historic racism.

It's not fair to misrepresent that reaction as feeling a sense of personal guilt (which is why debunking it as such is ridiculous). It's also not fair to suggest that any genetic basis is being implied.

I think I luv you.

Some fools literally believe all Caucasians have collective guilt.
Talk to them.



You forgot institutionalised gang-stalking.
I have been gang-stalked all my life by a Caucasian community.
I have no great affinity with such a society.
I reject the notion that I have white privilege, due to colonisation.




So where is the universal compassion for those who have been ritually abused?
You yourself even forum-stalked me by denying the existence of gang-stalking in the community.
I had to transfer my thread to the haven to stop your psychological abuse.
Are you prepared to apologise for that unconscionable behaviour?
Do you feel personally guilty for that?
There seems to be a presence of hypocrisy, in the air.

*That* was the reason I gave you the flick.
You were acting just like a gang-stalker.

It's because God doesn't like idols, right? But God didn't have any problem with all those statues of saints.

No, I stand by what I said about most experiences of gangstalking being the result of mental health issues and delusions of persecution.

I'm sorry if you were in crisis at the moment and saying that upset you, but I'm not sorry for saying that.

I've suffered delusions of that sort at points in my life and had to make peace with the exact same thing I told you; that's why I feel comfortable telling other posters who are describing delusional experiences that they're experiencing a delusion and that delusions undermine one's ability to realize what's actually going on vs. what they're experiencing to be going on.

Expressing disagreement isn't psychological abuse or stalking. It's disagreeing.
Stating the professional consensus on what gangstalking is really doesn't amount to an unconscionable behaviour and I don't feel any personal guilt; I don't even understand how you could expect me to.

It's like if you posted that you had proof the earth was flat and I said most experts support the 'round earth' hypothesis.

People can disagree with you, dislike you or have an unpleasant interaction with you without being flying monkeys all working together to make you miserable. Sometimes unpleasant interactions are just unpleasant and the only thing that links them all together is that you were involved.

If I was acting just like a gangstalker it's because I found you unpleasant to interact with and was sometimes childish in response, especially if I saw you being rude, snarky or condescending to posters I find pleasant, agreeable or both. Just like a gangstalker ultimately being a synonym for someone who's hostile, but with the root cause of that hostility misidentified due to mental health concerns.

Well, what I posted is no different from anything I've posted in the past.

Well if we can't feel guilt for what our ancestors did that means we're not culpable for great great grandpa Adam and great great grandma Eve did.

We're talking about flawed human nature given to bad choices in that case, whether we accept the Adam and Eve story, itself.

Notice: They are both "whities".

They haven't had time to develop a tan yet. They were born yesterday

You are a committed Christian.
It is your duty to believe in religious excentricities.
I should know.
I was one too.

Bad choices?
Wanting to be enlightened via the fruit of knowledge is a bad choice?
Sounds like he is trying to discourage critical thinking.

Does that count as special pleading?
