Not lucky, just as would be expected. For people who aren't old and sick the vast majority of cases result in either minor symptoms or none at all. Even people who are old and sick usually recover just fine: there's an 86% survival rate among nursing home patients. |

No one knows if they will come out "as expected" if they get it, even without comorbitities. It is also function of virus load and maybe genetics. |

There is no such thing as white privilegeI couldn't possibly disagree with you more. White privilege operates in all aspects of American society, at all times, as it has done throughout the entirety of our country's history, exactly as intended. |

You do you realize that this list is totally fiction used to be decisive . A well funded leftist group has slowly been pushing these ideas for the late 30 years .“White people” do not have a more favorable dealing with police . There are far more “white people” in jail then so called “people of color “ media ignore this fact because they are using black and brown people for their ultimate goals of moving the country to a more Marxist society where a few powerful politically connected have all the power Another fact the media ignores is that more “white people “ are involved in police involved shootings . Yep the data is plain to see . Most of these so called “white privileged “ crap boils down to good parents raise socially adjusted people who act rationally, get an education or skill and live a happy life . More and more “white people “ in the USA grownup in under parented situations and underperform people from non white ethnic groups The data is clear , people who grow up in under parented households developed emotional and aggression issues that hold them back . They are more likely to commit crimes and perform poorly in school and earn less money . The top earning ethnicities are just as likely to be non white as white . Calling someone “white “ is offensive to many . |

Then how can you explain the very large but silent black , Hispanic , East Asian , west Asian middle and upper classes .Of course the media ignore this . In fact all this focus on so called “white privilege” distracts us from helping people who have lagged behind the middle class for generations . They focus on a small group of wealthy people and project the image that all “white people live this way. This is used to be divisive . Instead of giving advise on how to improve your place in life , they just serve the goal of tearing down the nations economic system and grab power . Want to know why American born black People under form all other races in this country , look no further than the elected officials and community leaders that represent you . They use their power to enrich their family and friends and provide poor advise and guidance to the members of the community . Maxine waters paid each of her daughters $240,000 to help with her re-election campaign . A campaign she was going to win regardless . I used to work at a community after school center in and inner city by neighborhood . 20 people were on the payroll . 10 people actually showed up for work . The 10 people who did not show up were all friends and family of the city council member and state senator that supported the program .The children were allowed to run around the gym barely supervised while most of the remaining adults sat and chat in the Corner . The program was funded by the city council to provide tutoring, structured positive activities and job training assistance . |

I agree with your premise, but according to mediatracks.com, Columbus, Georgia is the 130th largest television market in the country with only 130,000 homes. I'm guessing that an online reporter in LA or NYC would make substantially more for the same service and wold be a more appropriate comparison to one of the leading newspapers in the world. |

So I looked through that and each of those fall into one of four categories:1. RACISM 2. Who cares? 3. It's actually justified. 4. Alternate cause. We can agree to disagree on the other ones, but calling racism "white privilege" has the side effect of blaming the racism on bystanders instead of the perpetrators. So instead of blaming bad cops, or bad police policy or related things on officer involved shootings and police brutality, you blame it needlessly on random people. |

Racism and bias are part and parcel of white privilege. They can't be separated.I'd say that the biggest remaining problem areas of racism are: - workplace discrimination - educational discrimination, including lowered expectations - housing discrimination - law enforcement racism and bias - financial discrimination 3. Segregated schools of affluence are justified? Well laa dee daa. |

I went through a stop sign on my block. Unfortunately, a patrol car was there, unseen until too late. When the 2 white officers saw me, they laughed and said, no problem, man.

It is in fact true that lower-wage workers in NYC "tend to be" people of color. Not they they all ARE, but they TEND TO BE.My workplace on Staten Island has thousands of workers whose pay is decent, though not spectacular - on average, I'd guess, more than that of station cleaners, but not as much as that of station agents. I'd say the workforce is 75% minority, of all different types. |

The article is a good one, except for one questionable phrase that you seem to be focused on to the exclusion of everything else. Do lower-wage workers "tend to be people of color"? Certainly not exclusively, but "tend" doesn't mean exclusively. Yes, the percentage of non-whites in the type of jobs she is talking about is higher than in type of jobs which people can work from home. That is an objective fact. But there are still plenty of whites doing those jobs as well. So was the mention of racial disparities improper? I don't think so, but I do think it was phrased in a way that seemed to exaggerate those disparities. Perhaps "are more likely to be" rather than "tend to be" would have been better. But it was just a portion of one sentence, not the focus of the article. |

The times these days always tries to weave in the race angle in every story .Brighton beach , an immigrant community where most people live hand to foot working low paying jobs . They have some of the longest commutes in the city . They are former oppressed people from communist regimes . They don’t count to the times and there upper middle class , mostly white , mostly multigenerational American audience . Had to give a reality check to my college buddy from Nj who blogs about injustice from his million dollar home working as a partner at a big Manhattan law firm . Without real knowledge , he believes the crap . Had to tell him of all the wonderful “ children of color” I have worked with over the years who succeeded in life and all those whose parents never gave them a chance . Mothers who allowed there boyfriends to pimp their 13 year old daughters , the almost 50% moderate to severe special education rates in some communities . |

That’s because most of the lower skill “white people “ have moved on to the suburbs or other lower cost states such as Nevada , Florida, Arizona , North Carolina . You can work as a hertz airport checkout person in Tampa Florida (childhood budy)and have your own house with a pool in the yard . In my buddies community there are dozens of ex nyc people . White , black and Hispanic . Yankees games are televised on yes network because of all the nyc people .Why struggle in nyc when you can work a similar job and have an easier life and a houseMost of the “white “ people who live in the five boroughs are elderly people who want to stay in their homes they worked hard to pay for + children who need to stay close , city workers who need to hang on to get pension years , LGBT folks because ny is the arts capital of the USA and they can live an open life , Jews of specific sects that are headquartered here , recent jewish Eastern European immigrants and urban professionals that come here to work . 30 years ago , this was not the case Entire neighborhoods of former residents have emptied out . FYI this is not the first time in nyc that this has occurred . People immigrate here , lube close to people from their home land , children become Americanized , some children move and tell everyone how much cheaper and better it is . 20 years goes by , most are gone and a new group move in . |

Yes they were, but when the colonists formed the country, it was for the English revolutionaries. Other people were here as well in small numbers. Jewish, Italian, French, etc... |

Why mention "color" at all? Would it make a difference if all the low wage workers were white? Of course not. |

That’s because most of the lower skill “white people “ have moved on to the suburbs or other lower cost states such as Nevada , Florida, Arizona , North Carolina . You can work as a hertz airport checkout person in Tampa Florida (childhood budy)and have your own house with a pool in the yard . In my buddies community there are dozens of ex nyc people . White , black and Hispanic . Yankees games are televised on yes network because of all the nyc people .Why struggle in nyc when you can work a similar job and have an easier life and a houseMost of the “white “ people who live in the five boroughs are elderly people who want to stay in their homes they worked hard to pay for + children who need to stay close , city workers who need to hang on to get pension years , LGBT folks because ny is the arts capital of the USA and they can live an open life , Jews of specific sects that are headquartered here , recent jewish Eastern European immigrants and urban professionals that come here to work . 30 years ago , this was not the case Entire neighborhoods of former residents have emptied out . FYI this is not the first time in nyc that this has occurred . People immigrate here , lube close to people from their home land , children become Americanized , some children move and tell everyone how much cheaper and better it is . 20 years goes by , most are gone and a new group move in . |
