So... this man went to Austria and experienced racism. He came back to England and decided to accuse all British whites of being privileged. I’ve never heard such rubbish. British people are not Austrians. His expensive education obviously overlooked some basics.
And not all Austrians are racist
That's the anecdote that has shaped his view of society. First, it was just one woman, second, it was Austria. So, what, ALL whites are the same? Isn't that a little bit of a racist assumption?
Presumably the same could happen to any white person in a majority Black/Asian Country. My wife experienced hostility from locals in Spain because of her blonde hair. Is that blonde privilege 😂
Well said ... 👏 👌 👍
@@maryen65 👍 👍
Negatively stereotyping a whole group of people based on skin colour, is as good a definition of rascims as you get. The nature of the group targeted make's no difference.
I wanted to write exactly the same thing but you saved me the time 👍
I am Irish, if people want to see what happens when a society starts branding people by some sort of social yardstick and where that ultimately leads to .... I give you Northern Ireland.
Catholics and Protestants slaughtered one another for years, why? Both sides held on to partisan views of history, that is why.
3,000 dead out of population of 1.5m if you extrapolate this to the UK today that would give you a body count of 134,000 dead.
Start segregating / separating / identifying people by the colour of their skin taken to it's logical conclusion is well Northern Ireland, except its not religion this time.
Saying somebody possesses privilege is not a stereotype though is it? I can say all good looking people have some privilege - that isn't stereotyping?
Stereotyping would be saying - because that person is white, they are bad or they hold X view.
How can people not grasp this....
@@Alex-pt5no "Stereotyping would be saying - because that person is white, they are bad or they hold X view"
So, exactly what critical race theory the phrase 'white privilege' comes from & references explicitly says then, that all white people are guilty is the message, guilty means you've done something bad & are bad. All white people are bad & must apologise for some sort of 'original sin' is what the WOKE are pedalling while calling all white people inherently racist (without any hint of irony at all, because they simply don't see the fact that what they're saying is racist), this has been their message for a very long time now.
How can you not grasp this....

Doesn’t matter how many times I listen to Calvin he just oozes common sense and truth! Sharing this on Twitter for others!! 🏴✝️🙏🏼🇬🇧👍🏻⛪️
White privalidge is reality where as you don't see much black privilege unless you talk about someone like Martin Luther King who was shot for his trouble
He is the equivalent of America's Thomas sowell, Candice Owens, Ben Carson and Larry elder. These people are black with the truth about history and are conservative. They all have channels on here or views. Well worth watching these people.
Calvin Robinson is a woke activist clown
Calvin Robinson doesn't ooze confidence and doesn't make any sense coming from yet another woke clown
I couldn't agree more 👏👌
As a white man, I'm sure if I went to a country where I was the minority I would experience racism of some kind. I know for a fact that countries like India are rife with it.
They have a cast system in India
Yes, it all depends on where you are, my white Irish auntie has lived and worked in France for more than fifty years but will never be treated as an equal with a native born French person
@johnwilliams2479 and racism. 😅. Every country / group of people have racists.
Poor Calvin. He might b meaning good but the proof is in the pudding. I've seen many a yt tourist in different cowntries in Africa and their only fear is that they might b a victim of robbery but nearly all tell u about how hospitable the locals are. If u're black and travel out of the British Isles, east or south, there's no need to elaborate
As a white man because of colonialism you are associated with privileges when you travel. If you suffer racism I sure hope so.
Maybe we should talk more about black privilege; being able to absolve yourself of any responsibility whatsoever by virtue of your skin colour.
indeed. Keep it quiet. You might upset the snowflakes
Your comment is soo on point!
There's inherent racism in the idea that black people can't help themselves, that their race means they can't really control their behaviour. People like Calvin Robertson, intelligent clear thinkers, should be the example, not someone like Stormzy, who reinforces so many negative black stereotypes.
This is exactly what is happening in Britain.
@@mesolithicman164 I've never cared for Stormzy's music. Too chavvy but can I ask what you mean by negative stereotypes? Curious as I dont listen to him enough to know? Does he big up guns and drugs and that type of stuff or?
I’m sure the girls in Rochdale and Rotherham feel very privileged indeed.
Well said
And Manchester, huddlefield, Halifax , Bradford, Keighley, Leeds , Manchester Newcastle to name a few
@Anya Wale I don't want to engage with you, and you're clearly just trolling
@Anya Wale where were the mothers, sisters, aunties (strong women)?
@Anya Wale And you being willing to sympathise with sex offenders just because of skin colour really says a lot about you as a person 😉
Calvin is my hero. Thank goodness a person of colour is rising above the resentment that many coloured people have and seeing things objectively and fairly and ACCURATELY
As a Brit/French with a British surname, living in France I have experienced "racism" 🙄 over the 35 years I've been here. I've often been accused of "burning Joan of Arc" 🤣 Once, at the post office I was told by the black employee that if I wasn't happy with the service I should "clear off back to where I came from". Water off a duck's back. Stop whining, it's all part of life, just get on with it for goodness sake!
Return to sender? 😂
I as a Brit also was ignored completely when asking for cakes in a bakery. just did not want to serve me in Calais. I walked out, after the Gaelic shrug was offered. Oh I speak fluent French, but somehow they couldn't understand me in that bakery
Well done Calvin Robinson won the debate again. What's more worrying is that Albi calls himself a conservative.
Calvin is right all day long!
Calvins a knob
@@EbonyMaw874 How so? Explain yourself.
No one did. It is yet another tedious culture war discussion. No one discussed the origin of the phrase and who came up with it; why it was defined initially does relate to what is taught in schools.
White privilege was originally termed by crt writers when it was first created n been revived with crt
So tired of people using the word Fact incorrectly, opinions are not facts. Well done Calvin.
Ho about when people say period after they say their opinion. As if there is no room for another opinion
Well here is a FACT which is indisputable . The politicians invited the migrants into the country, not the citizens who would have opposed it. So where on earth was their WHITE PRIVILEGE .
I don't think it's specifically racist, but racist can use it as cover for their racism to make to look like they're just advocating for justice and equality. I understand that there's racial equality and racism may play a role, but it's not that white people are granted unearned privileges (as the narrative generally goes), but people of other races are viewed of as less. Calling it white privilege just ignores the power structures that stigmatise certain races and shifts the blame to white people in general, and most people are just trying to live their lives and don't really want to rule over anyone.
@@Competitive_Antagonist a white guy walks into a black neighborhood, does the white guy have power?
@@edwardgeorge401 I don't think it would. We are all equal but in various ways. I might not have the same amount of money you as but I might have something you can't get. Maybe height, maybe a bigger youn know what. Maybe my race is known for being the best at math. See where I'm going?
If we had more people like Calvin, in this world what a wonderful world it would be..
I’m sure for you. You’d have a population who are completely docile and take the abuse while being treated as less than human.
Gosh. I love listening to Calvin. He's so intelligent, articulate, and wise 👏
He’s saying Britain is full of white privilege but also said his first experience of it was in another country? That makes no sense.
Wouldn't that be similar to a white person comparing 2 African countries because they contain mostly black people? 🤔 I think we know how that conversation would go...
You're expecting something different for the VICTIM CLASS sjw's?
Exactly Calvin. If you use the Austrian argument then I experienced black privilege whilst working in Nigeria.
Utter biased rubbish
100% correct.
Living and Working in Mongolia for 3 years I absolutely experienced Asian privilege, infact everyday for 7years being in East Asia I suffered blatant xenophobic attacks, verbally , sometimes physically, often blatantly ignored, spat at, hissed at to get out of a store because obviously I wasnt a "local" yet apparently according to these pillars of moral society and intellect I still had some kind of over whelping privilege in life in general for that level of racism to be perfectly OK against me.
These fool that argue this clearly have never been subjected to REAL racism nor traveled in too many counties where they stand out due to physical appearance...
Strange too, that Albie has to resort to the story of a trip to Austria in order to provide 'evidence' for the existence of 'White Privilege' in the UK, no??
His anecdote is an example of racist or xenophobic people, that they exist! it is NOT evidence that: "All white people are privileged somehow...............not even close close to it!
If you use the Austrian argument
He clearly said he never experienced racism until that holiday!
And he was happy to come back to the UK
Living in Korea be sure you are looked down on…. Not all the time, not by everyone but from time to time
@@Timetofly8888
It's not difficult to see that you suffered discrimination because of your physical appearance...
Calvin is awesome, he restores my faith in humanity.
Calvin is right. As usual.
In a word - yes.
Picking on and attacking a group of people based purely on their skin colour is obviously racist.
100%
And illegal - in the form of ‘inciting racial hatred’.
@Samson If we want to live in a cohesive society, such laws are necessary.
@Samson Maybe not but what’s done is done. We need to work with what we have which means judging everyone by the content of their character, not the colour of their skin.
So why has Diane Abbot still got a job then ? ✌✌🇬🇧🇬🇧
I'm white male working class. I've shattered my back with a lifetime of heavy manual labouring. I should have been retiring in a couple of years' time - but our government just added years to my working life, even though I can barely get out of bed in the mornings with the pain.
My hourly rate of pay is only £1.20 more than it was 25 years ago.
The cost of fuel has doubled in that time - I have to drive 25 miles, on a very dangerous road, every day to work.
I need a substantial, safe car - but I can only afford a 14 year old one.
Because I don't have £30,000 spare to buy an electric car, I recently had to pay almost £300 road tax.
Now the government has introduced fuel that will eventually f**k up my car and put it off the road.
I still won't be able to afford an electric car. I'll simply have no car to get me to work.
I won't even go into the truly hard, working lives of my parents. I'll just say that they were certainly never "privileged".
I do not feel "privileged". I've never been racist - however, this nonsense is stoking hatred and divisiveness. Is it a good thing that we're back to defining people by their skin colour? It is as plain as day that this is cynical strategy of the far-left to cause conflict and social upheaval. They thrive on chaos.
White privilege is what rich people who inherited a lot of money and got good job thanks to connection created, to spread their guilt of not deserving what they have to other white people, so it's not just them, but other whites too. It's harder to say "I fucked up" than "we fucked up". A person born in the family with wealth claims that the guy who was born in the family of workers have the same privilege as he have, while at the same they look down on the working class.
Thanks for being a hard worker and taking the time to write your thoughts that highlight the division in our society caused by terms such as white privilege.
Well said…. And I feel for you…..
👍
They use chaos and death to steal and take power .. never let a good tragedy go to waste. If there isn't a good tragedy make one! 911 and plandenic stand out the most
When Calvin said that the experience Albie had in Austria had affected the way he sees the world was spot on. Albie's face as he realised Calvin was right was priceless.
Your a Beautiful human being Calvin. Makes me feel warm and safe knowing your wonderful balance of intelligence, common sense and experience is helping to hold our British standards high. Much Love and Respect to you 🙏❤️
Good on Calvin. I love the bit where he talks about black privilege. It's about time someone said that in the mainstream media!
Only white people can be rascist,everyone & anyone can abuse us in our own country & the government & police will stand by & watch🏴🇬🇧
Yes black privilege is to employ Kemi Badenoch she is useless just saying
It would be the same for anyone none black men in Africa I’m shore definitely think about it
No such thing. Albi sounds pretty racist. Hats off to Calvin, we need more people like him.
Well spoken but clueless racists are the most virulently toxic. 'We'll have to agree to disagree' is a statement used to end conversations you don't want to have when you recognize your position is invalid.
Definitely, although I didn’t know he was a teacher what a waste for those kiddies he could have taught.
M S I don't think he is clueless, it how he makes a very good living!
The gentleman who got the opportunity to fly to and study in another country is accusing working class kids of being privalidge?
Why on earth did they get rid of Calvin in the cofe, such a beautiful mind.
I don't understand why Albi is imposing his experience in Austria onto white people in England, what does he expect us to do about it.
Because we are stupid enough to contemplate his opinions on the matter. I have lived abroad i never got to told to speak the language because i always tried to even if badly. You think we think we tried people great when they speak in a foreign language to us??!!?!?!!
He should have tried walking down a Vienna street 75 years ago, then he would have seen true racism!
Hitler hated black peoples, he famously stalked out of the Olympic Games because a black guy won a race. He was Austrian
@@annemcniell6956 Hitler was anti colonialist....He did not have any opinion on black people.
He expects us all to feel guilty for something a couple old people in Austria said years ago.
I feel sorry for white kids in London schools there is one white kid in a class we are the minority now in London
*Why would you feel sorry for ethnic minorities if privilege on the basis of race doesn't exist?*
@@garyb3689 that is a huge assumption for someone who claims racism doesnt exist when comes to white people. But when you white people are in minority then its all feelings over facts

Yes, calling white people privileged is definitely Racist. I am white and I don't have any privilege, never have had any. How come no one is actually mentioning the black people who are privileged? The famous and extremely rich are privileged. In fact, I would say that black people are the most racist.
Why can't everyone be as sensible as level headed as Calvin?
Albi sees race first and foremost. That’s his problem.
Indeed. That makes him the racist because he continually looks for it
He leaves one place because of racism and chooses a country to come back to say they are racist. Simple go to the place where everyone looks like you
@UC_Jyrt7uMbAg7m_8JsiW9sw You can tell just by listening to him that he doesn’t know where his arse ends and his elbow starts. He’ll probably be prime minister in 5 years time.
He had what sounds like a horrific racist experience and so he’s channeling that anger in disgust in ways to bring white people down. It’s a very closed minded view of the world
He is quite light skinned for a black man!! ✌️
Someone telling you to speak German has nothing to do with the colour of your skin. Also ONE racist in Austria makes white Brits privilege because..????
That was my point. I think it’s unfair to paint the entire country of Austria as racist. It’s possible that he came across two nasty people.
You go Calvin. Your points of view on these issues are very clear and correct. I would love to have your ability to express opinions and facts.👍👍👍
Calvin speaks so much sense. Thank goodness he exits in a public sphere.
These days there is only black privilige, you don't get a posh British accent like that with out going to a private school, what a hypocrite
And that's why he's so annoyed - he felt his class and education would distinguish him from the 'immigrant' perception. In a foreign language that didn't communicate.
Every advert is mixed race couples and kids. Every single one. Not even Asians when they're the largest minority, but black people who there are hardly any of outside London.
What privilege is there in living in your own county but being treated like a third class citizen
Well said
😂 😂 😂
too right even more so if you have autism , dyspraxia and add or any disability
More of Calvin please. Great commentator!
Albi should be on Austrian TV complaining about this, what a waste of breath
Calvin, you’re a breath of fresh air. So nice to listen to an intelligent and articulate man talking on a hot subject and basically blasting away stereotypes with straight forward common sense. Incidentally, as a white person, I have experienced ‘racist’ comments both in this country and elsewhere. That’s life...
Hiw exactly have you been oppressed? Your feelings have been hurt at best but you're here claiming to he a victim if what exactly
When you divide Humanity by our colour that is racist this needs to stop
I love Calvin!!!! He has his stuff so together.
I disagree with Albi. I'm white and my first experience of living abroad in white communities was not pleasant until i learnt to speak their language. Many people in foreign countries just don't like foreigners and it's nothing to do with their skin colour. Once again Calvin speaks total common sense.
as a white man i experienced racism from several kurdish men when i was in turkey. so this white privilege stuff is a load of bull
I find Calvin such an inspiration, i wish my children had a teacher like him.
Me too. Such an amazing person. Can you imagine if he and Candace Owens got together- they are what we need to run this country. Shame Candace is US not British. Love them both.
The cancel woke leftist era is coming to a fast hard end very soon. :) hold hope because the world will be a much better place when Bidens Democrats are removed.
Haha weirdos, 2 pure grifters!
Democrats make sadists look like saints.
Of course, he's no longer a teacher unfortunately.
Still waiting for my white-privelege check.
Hats off to GB news for having such debates. These conversations have been sorely missing from the mainstream in recent times.
Robinson is so correct. The other guy does not even understand what is the topic under discussion
Privileged middle class left wing females calling ' white men ' privileged is laughable. Calvin Robinson has destroyed the ' white privilege ' argument completely....
to summarize:
Albie: "I experienced racism on a trip to Austria........Therefore "White Privilege" exists in the UK!
Robinson: "No one is disputing there are racist people in the World, but that doesn't mean ALL White folk have 'privilege'.........It simply does NOT follow from your personal anecdote in any logical way!
@@brother1ray Indeed. It's bollocks.
@@Mysterywhiteboy78
Calvin used deflection and the other guy allowed him to do so unfortunately...
He talked a lot but didn't said much...
@@guleiro Because the other guy can't rationally explain what white privilege is without sounding like a psuedo-intellectual or racist. Not only this it forms part of Critical Race theory which has been debunked as garbage and is reverse racism of the highest order.
Yes, and so is having awards for only black artists and black only month on TV. Anything that segregates another skin colour is racist and for some reason being black doesn’t class. Hypocrisy at its best.
ok calm down adolf
@@pete3701 Typical response. I don’t wear agenda glasses I see realism clearly. What part of my comment is in any way far right related? Because I mentioned the word black. Example MOBO awards for black artists, can you imagine if we had a MOWO awards for just white artists there would be uproar. Can you now see the hypocrisy in the whole racist debate, you can’t just have one skin colour as racists, but other skin colour its not.
@@chewie8 Can you imagine if we had white history month? That'll add fuel to the fire for the Woke mob.
Apartheid well on its way.
@Common Sense you people!! And that’s not racist. What’s with all the laughing emojis anyway? You didn’t say anything funny
Why has the gentlemans experience of Austria anything to do with the UK, Southern Germany and Austria are not this country, the stupist example ever
There seems to be an awful lot of black privilege in television ads, magazines, newspapers and acting casting.
Calvin Robinson really guns his words, and every shot is on target!
He's FANTASTIC!
white privilege is becoming less and less. Someone who hasn't been racially abused before wont believe white privilege exits.
Yeah he's great and wiped out the RACIST, but 1 thing he did not say Posh people are white privileged BAHAHAHA WRONG that's economic privilege... the RACIST shows he has given up on life and needs something to blame !!!!!
@Anya Wale europhobic racist
Calvin talks so much sense. I wish his views on this was plastered all over the BBC. Thank god for gb news
You could plaster the BBC with his views but the Beeb would immediately paint over the plaster with a pale shade of Woke!
Non*
@@kevincoshner310 exactly
I'm white and grew up as a minority in Africa. I was refused emoyment, entry into events, racially abused because of my skin colour. Do I have "white privilege"?
Sorry that you went to possibly the most xenophobic country in Europe. Any British person speaking on the phone in Austria would have been berated for not speaking German regardless of the colour of their skin.
Imagine thinking that white people can go and study anywhere in the world (like Africa, Middle east or China) and think they would never be racially abused. 1st hand experience here.
these people are framing straight white men , in the same way the nazis framed jews and we know where that leads
If a black man raised his hand an said black power not racist if a white man raises his hand an says white power racist.
@Eva Dobermann and the nazi salute doesn’t have to have nazi implications as it was the Roman salute before.
in a white country...that tells you a lot
@Eva Dobermann exactly
@Eva Dobermann actually the Scots aren’t an ethnic group. I live in Scotland, you get Scots of all races and colours, it’s not even a nationality as they’re British officially
@Eva Dobermann there’s lots of ethnic groups in Scotland that are now Scottish by birth. If you go back further there’s Picts etc still more than one ethnicity. Would you have that the English are an ethnic group too. What is it about my statement that makes you thinks I’m a Bolshevik and what was the ‘nice try’ aimed at? Not sure what is was you thought I was trying. I think we may have misunderstood each other somewhere.
Guy on the left literally wouldn’t accept his own argument if the skin colour was swapped. That’s why things will never get better.
Where can I cash in my privilege? I could do with it right now
Calvin is the man!!
This fellah is talking about racism. We're talking about the term white privilege. Robinson is spot on. 👏👏👏
"Slaves do not dream of being free, they dream of being masters"
Calvin makes so much sense it’s ridiculous 👏 👏
I don't see job openings for white only candidates, but I see BAME only opportunities, who has privilege here?
@@imachunt653 That's because they often come from broken families who have no aspirations or ambition so they skip school, leave without qualifications, cannot read or write properly and expect the state to take care of them not realising they are the very people that those in power despise because they are an embarrassment. If it wasn't for Marcus Rashford putting food on their plates, the poor white working class kids would have starved. I know, because this is my neighbourhood.
I’m white and not privileged
I def dont have any extra privileges compared to the average black person.
Yeah I'm white I don't have a car don't know my own house sorry but I don't have that kind of money
Teachers saying that should be sacked.
Calvin is a wizard. Thank you!
Thankyou Calvin xxx

Calvin Robinson for PM
Definitely get my vote
I would love a pm like Calvin this is a man of common sense! but not only that puts it extremely well when explaining it would get my vote any day
Indeed, but he's far to intelligent, empathetic, with integrity, for the house of ill repute.
Go on Calvin you Legend
Didn’t feel like a debate.
It sounded like one person that keeps contradicting themselves and one that has a brain.
I got the stuffing kicked out of me in Chicago by 4 Black kids. None of the onlookers were interested in intervening.
It's not difficult is it, if you are in any majority nation, you may be racially abused if you are a minority. It happened to me in Japan, it probably happens to Austrians in Nigeria or Beijing. How can you talk about such a facile point for more than 30 seconds? 😐
Or even in a town or neighbourhood if you're in the minority.
That Albi fella does victimhood very well.
Minorities can be racist towards the majority too.
Racism is, literally, discrimination based on race.
If I went to India and went around calling everyone 'paki' that wouldn't be racist because I would be part of a racial minority?
I know of white people who have been verbally abused for speaking English while in Germany / or Austria. That particular incident is not colour related, it's due to language. Some people in Germany /Austria (maybe also in other countries !) do have an issue with tourists/ visitors when speaking a language other than German..
@@apemoon1731 It's so called smart people talking on other people's behalf.
I'm white but certainly was not born with any privilege, let alone based on colour. Any privilege I've got has been earned
You misunderstanding what he said, of course not all white live in luxury, white privilge only means white people are given more opportunities because they are white. Does mean white people take opportunity.
Yeah its called having a work ethic.
@unanimous Some people get hired because they’re women or persons of color, not because of their merit. It’s called affirmative action. It’s 2021, who is getting a job because they’re white or a man, unless they’re getting cast for an acting or modeling role or something?
@@msi8311 it's a proven fact the only people actually benefitting from affirmative action is white women
Calvin had depth, understanding, truth & moral superiority..... things that Johnathan doesn't have....
Calvin, you're a stalwart for common sense. Thankyou.
Yes, there's an awful lot of racism in Austria but it's not white privilege it's just Austrians being beastly to people who aren't Austrian. I'm a native German speaker, blue eyed and white and I've had nasty experiences in Austria.
In Austria you should be a good drinker before the Lord in order to have fun with the Austrian ladies. 🍷😎
Xenophobia is the word you are looking for, however even that comes with negativity that isn't deserved. People naturally like people who are like them, so nationals of a country preferring other nationals is not an issue. I wouldn't expect to go to Africa and be treated like their own people, that doesn't make any sense, same way as I've been treated differently in places like Japan. I don't blame them, I'm a foreigner in their country and I wouldn't expect equal or greater treatment to their fellow countrymen.
What does blue eyed have to do with it?

What a horrible experience - I can well understand the relief at leaving that place...
We keep being informed about racism from whites to blacks, but nothing is ever mentioned when blacks were racist to half casts, predominately during 60s and 70s
This is Racism through and through. Well said Calvin.
Calvin Robinson is correct and the other interviewee is wrong in what he said are "facts". Those were just his prejudiced opinions.
Calvin's expressions alone tell a tale. replace the word white with any other ethnicity and there would be uproar.
Calvin Robinson. Brilliant. we need more people like this.
Calvin Robinson is always spot on - I really like him as a commentator as he's both articulate and very respectful.
Albie is the Conservative version of Diane Abbott
Yes, absolutely agree
Hold on a moment! As a white man im offended by the term of white any thing ! Im a human being and im white ! What the fek has the colour of your skin got to do with anything????????
Calvin Robertson is absolutely brilliant, he always speaks so wisely. Well done Calvin 👏👏👏👏
Educated.. proves that you can not teach stupid when they will not listen. Good try Calvin
👍
You can educate a fool, but you cannot make them think.
Albi hides behind his closet racism by pretending to be a victim.
He can barely conceal his resentment.
That other guy talked rubbish, I'm white and had a similar experience in Holland because I was not Dutch and speaking English, I've also been pointed at and chanted at in zimbabwe,white man white man white man but so should I be anti black, ABSOLUTELY NOT. Colour has nothing to do with a person's character
Hmmm, someone got completely owned there.
Black people are also privileged just look at Lewis hamalton, will Smith and Alison hammond, these people are rich, what about white working class boys as they have been left behind
Lewis Hamilton is not black, he is mixed race
@@kingearner4320 not that it matters but I thought he was black.
So many of us are mixed race nowadays. That is why we need to stop focusing on skin colour. My family is a real mixed bag, Indian, Nicaraguan, Jamaican, Scottish, Irish, English,. American, native American.
Sadly we are lacking anyone from the Far East, Africa & Wales.
Albi to me looks like he’s boiling over with racism, he’s the type who keep the pot boing on racism.. thats my view.
any way
@@starrynight1329 How can you think hes black, he looks mixed LOL
You really don’t get it, do you?
Any "Minority" characteristic will FEEL they are treated different. A white kid who's a minority in a London school experiences incredible racism and it is BECAUSE of this kind of rhetoric.
Well said
I would say not automatically. Being a minority of any race does not automatically mean you will suffer racism. Just as it doesnt mean being the majority means you wont.
Thank you Calvin , really enjoyed listening to you.
As someone has already pointed out, Albie despite his organisational stance comes across as a (barely) closet racist. Namely basing a skewed reality on his own experience. Erich Fromm wrote that the fascists of the future will call themselves anti fascist (paraphrased). (Churchill is quoted as repeating this too). Fromm is a psychologist, a humanist philosopher AND a socialist. He also wrote between the wars and on his experience as a Jew who fled the Nazi atrocities. He created something positive out of his experiences. He didn't sublimate with more hate and spurious conclusions 😔 very frustrating indeed...
Bravo Calvin, always the voice of reason ! Funny how no-one ever talks about black on black racism, e.g.: Rwanda, the Hutus vs. the Tutsi’s or as Yasmin Aliya -Brown has documented, the racism of her fellow Ugandan Indians against Ugandan Africans, or how about the Mosque that just got bombed in Kunduz killing & maiming hundreds of minority ethnic Hazara people because of their “Shia” beliefs…….yeh, it’s a fcuk’ed up world my friends & as a working class ( poor) white male pensioner, don’t any of you effects dare call me privileged 🤬
Well you put all those people today in one country to be honest. It's like putting you are Germany in one country, its like putting you and Germany in one country.
arabs and indians aren't black
@@echochamberdisrupter2852 Well I lived for a while in Germany and didn't like it there and instead of complaining about it I did something amazing.........I moved back to the UK ........sorted

I understand the guy's story about Austria. (go figure - they have such a "good" record).
But if I, as a white guy, go to south side Chicago, will I get a better treatment there than he did? no. It does not make it right, but it does explain the stupidity of generalizing behaviours.
South side Chicago is the same as Salzburg is quite the take…
@@ijclark when it comes to racially profiling people, I would say they are quite similar. Try visiting the middle east, for example, to see how both Black and White people are looked at. I did it - it's not nice.
@@juliorosa9857 yeah, you might want to pick up some history books…
@@ijclark Yeah, the history of the Arab slave trade and Arab involvement in Africa, perhaps.
@@ijclark I did Ian, many of them. You are the one that learns history from CNN.
At last people are speaking up & fighting back, about time. Let's take Britain back quickly
"Is using the term 'white privilege' racist?"
Really? That question has to even be asked?
