I don't know about you, but if I'm ever anesthetized and under the surgeon's knife, I would prefer that the chap or gal on the other end of the scalpel be focused exclusively on correcting my ailment, stitching me up, and keeping me alive. Ahh, but I would prefer that, wouldn't I, racist dirtbag that I am?  

Thankfully, the luminaries at Ohio State University now offer a course in which aspiring health professionals, particularly those lacking melanin, are invited to...wait for it...confront their privilege! Because if you're an anti-racist, then that's what you want your surgeon worrying about—their privilege, not your open chest.  

One quote used in the course comes from the work of feminist scholar Peggy Mclntosh, who said, "Whiteness protected me from many kinds of hostility, distress, and violence, which I was being subtly trained to visit, in turn, upon people of color." Gotcha. 

So not only am I protected from minority violence, but I am also subtly being violent and hostile towards minorities. That certainly would explain my nasty habit of roaming the Chicago streets in subzero weather, noose and bleach in hand, ever on the prowl for the unwary Subway-frequenting gay actor of color.  

The documented evidence suggests otherwise. The FBI statistics illustrate that white people are over five times more likely to suffer violent crime at the hands of black people than vice versa. But statistics are racist. Who are you gonna believe, the DEI-trained experts at Ohio State University, or your own gaping bullet wound?

Progressives approach scientific questions in reverse order than we white supremacists do. We would look at the success or failure of an individual and apply the scientific method to determine the causes thereof. Progressives determine the cause (i.e. either privilege or oppression) beforehand and then cherry-pick their way backward to try and shoehorn whatever circumstantial evidence, real or imagined, into the hypothesis.  

Any evidence that contradicts their hypothesis is ignored or vilified because the scientific method is racist. Hence, the preordained conclusion that whatever success I enjoy has nothing to do with hard work, intelligence, or good parenting and everything to do with an invisible and unconscious yet omnipresent racism that only the progressives themselves are capable of detecting.

This Freudian if-you-deny-being-racist-that-just-proof-of-how-much-you've-repressed-awareness-of-your-racism approach cannot be falsified. Nobody can prove that they're not a racist. This is what the scientific world refers to as a non-verifiable hypothesis, and it cannot be used as evidence to verify a claim. This extends to our legal culture as well, as the burden of proof falls on the accuser to prove guilt, not the accused to prove innocence.

But such ideas are, of course, racist.

Since the Left has predetermined that my "privileges" are solely responsible for any and every one of my advantages in life, I was curious to examine these privileges within the context of the social structures around me. And to be honest, what I found shocked me, and completely validated the Left's claims against my entire race. Here are but a few of the privileges that I, as a white person, enjoy:

White privilege: is there anything it can't do?
