FALLACY OF WHITE PRIVILEGE: DEMANDING INGROUP BENEFITS WHILE MAINTAINING OUTGROUP STATUS.

by Bill Joslin (via Justin Allred)

Better stated as in-group members pay for membership via opportunity cost to not betray in-group trust.

The incentive is clear.

The benefits of maintaining membership outweighs the opportunity costs of not betraying trust of the in-group.

This framing now includes class. Lower classes are on the cusp of this equation where betraying ingroup trust outweighs membership (i.e. crime and fraud).

And outgroup members have no benefit of membership so have no incentive to take on the opportunity cost.

“White privilege” distills down to outgroup con-artistry for why they should have ingroup benefits without paying the cost of membership….

And now we have the crux of the liberal philosophy and the common interests between lower class, migrants, academics and unassimilated sub-groups… All demanding ingroup benefits while maintaining outgroup status.
