We gave women the right to vote. We ended slavery. I don’t want to hear about “privilege.”

When did the word "millennial" begin to mean "somebody younger than me" rather than somebody born between the years 1982 and 2000? Because that dude... He's a fucking millennial.

Ok well don’t get me wrong I don’t agree with what that guy is saying in the opening post. He’s an idiot.

But I don’t see how this is a fine example of murdered by words as a reply.

The original poster doesn’t appear to be claiming exclusively that white people only died and definitely no other races?!

He just says millions of whites. Which is true. And the people who defeated them like The Brits, The Russians and the US were predominantly white with white leaders. Fuck even Churchill was leader of the right in the UK at the time! That won’t sit well.

Also the people who died across Europe whilst defending their countries from invasion before handing over the country to the Nazi’s as well....they were white.

And completely forgotten amongst this tediously strange and constant rewritten history used in this white male privilege / Nazi debate is the involvement of Asian men in Japan?!

As for the rest of the murdered by words reply, the Portuguese are usually spared. They started the African slave trade. Latins are never to blame though.

And that wasn’t even when slavery started at all.

Even the bible has slaves pre dating the African slave trade and that was in Asia.

The Egyptians had slaves before that.

White people in Europe were slaves to the Roman’s before the African slave trade started too.

Slavery never started from Africa in the 1500-1600’s.

So I’d love to know exactly what race to blame and where I can find accurately and factually the very first person who started this and blame their entire race for it...because we cannot accept that slavery has been in all corners of the planet in every race can we?

Still I suppose in this day and age being factually correct matters little.

Oh and as for women’s voting rights...the Vatican doesn’t allow this.

Saudi Arabia was the last country to allow Women to vote. They escape the argument.

The legislative barriers that prevent many women in Nigeria from voting goes unnoticed too.

Africa and Asia escape the women’s right discussion entirely.

Slavery is a lot older than "white people keeping slaves", though.
