*edit* okay u said further in the post you are from the US where we as white people have so much privilege coming out our ass its not funny so ill just go over a few cause i dont have time to go into all the reasons you will never face racism in america
1)if you end up homeless or really really poor most people will feel pity for you or will assume something bad happened to you that put you there. You will be more likely to move out of that poverty level not only quicker but with less long terms affects on jobs and housing available to you. IF a PoC is in the same situation its because they are lazy and want to live off the system. people will say things like if they wanted to they could get a good or "real" job but they are lazy its their own fault they are so poor. That and if they ever do get out of that poverty level it will affect what jobs they can get or their housing because land lords will not give them the benefit of the doubt and tell them no so they end up in crappy conditions with higher rents for less.
2)im assuming you are a girl because most members are but you want to know who benifits more then any other group from affirmative action in the US? its white women who need the help far less then any other group realistically but we are the easiest for the poor white men to stomach so we get the jobs we get the better colleges we get to have a better chance of getting a higher paid job. Yes on average women get paid 77C on the dollar to a man but white women pull up that average dramatically because a black women makes roughly 64 cents on the dollar compared to men and latinas make 55 cents.
3)as a white person if you get accused of a crime you get the benfit of the doubt PoC rarely get that. I mean look at NYC now stop and random frisk law guess who gets stopped the most(it certainly isnt white people. OR look at this case where a man shot and murdered a child and instead of getting questioned and arrested they when in and searched the dead boys house and watched as the white mans family took shit out of his house with out stopping them even tho he had just shoot a middle schooler in front of his mother and spent several hours interrogating her instead before finally arresting the neighbor.http://www.blackyouthproject.com/2012/06/another-unarmed-black-youth-shot-killed-darius-simmons-was-only-13-years-old/
please stop acting like we even feel anything close to what PoC feel its really just ignorance at its highest level
