AI-??

LOL ok- great source for all the salient facets of the term. BUT Clearly you are guessing on the intent and content of the term. It's a term that describes WITHOUT bias- based on the color of skin.

AS far as it relates to golfing- it's a sport of privilege too.

But YOU already knew that too. Obfuscate much? or is english a second language for you OM? Originally Posted by eyecu2

so AI is only credible when it agrees with you eye? lol

so white peoples problem is a "NON BIASED term and isnt based on skin color? but its states "white"

how do you type this shit without being ashamed?

from AI
The central argument is that the phrase uses a specific race as a negative label, which is considered a form of racism.
Gross generalization. It unfairly generalizes that all white people are wealthy, have an easy life, and face no major challenges. In reality, white people can and do experience significant hardship, including poverty, drug addiction, and other serious issues.
Invalidates real problems. By dismissing all concerns from white people as "white people's problems," the phrase invalidates any genuine difficulties they may face, perpetuating the racist assumption that a person's race, by itself, is a predictor of an easy life.
Divisive and harmful. Critics argue that using race-based language to categorize problems is inherently divisive and does not contribute to a healthy dialogue about issues of race and privilege.
Reinforces racist ideas. In an interview with NPR, scholar Timothy Wray argued that terms like "white trash" reinforce white supremacy by suggesting that non-white people are inherently "trash." The phrase "white people's problems" can similarly be seen as reinforcing the idea that white people are a monolith defined by their privilege.



I know you arent stupid eye but you have a problem with not admitting when you are wrong or by just ignoring it in other posts..........

I don't usually expect professional sports to reflect the ethnic breakdown of the USA. Especially the PGA Tour when it draws internationally.

The Trevinos, Woods and Singhs blend in for me with the Normans and Watsons and McIlroys.

Supermex was always my favorite golfer

I'm just glad he wasn't on the course see what happened at Bethpage. He'd be exasperatedly shaking his head.

I think we’d all agree it was an embarrassment for almost all Americans. I doubt they’ll ever host another event at Bethpage. I’ve listened to some of the heckling on YouTube or X and it’s not excusable. A drink poured on a players wife. Dozens should have been kicked out. I heard just one.

Boston, New Hampshire, Vermont, the whole region is odd, uniquely, but similar.

I think thats why Steven Kings stories are more acceptable.
