Whiteness was created to justify slavery and colonization? What was blackness, brownness and redness created to justify? Was blackness created to justify rape?
I personally always thought whiteness and blackness referred to skin tone, but maybe I'm just completely full of shit here.

Noah if you're hispanic via Mexican parents you're probably the descendent of a spaniard who raped native americans. Highly doubt my ancestors raped anybody after 1438 A.D.
I'm still lost on why Noah only goes after "whiteness"? When Noah makes a post about "white" anything he seems to give it negative connotation. Like justifying colonization and slavery or raping cultures. There's plenty of racist shit spewed by people who believe in blackness, brownness, redness and yellowness. So why don't you go after blackness or redness? Are you a coward? Or do you believe only whites are evil and devils?
Why is MLK anti white when he preferred unity? Why isn't MLK a racist if he's anti-white? Is Robert actually a racist piece of shit?
Tribalism creates racism.

Because according to him racism isn't real unless it's systematic. So on that note you could bring up the white genocides happening in what I think is South Africa. But even then, I think his focus is more local, which is understandable, nobody gives a flying fuck about the slave labor put into creating our shoes and giving us diamonds because it isn't in our yard where we have to stare it in the face. In his defense, I fail to see any sort of racism that has a grand effect on a whole race (with in this country) where it's whites that are the victims. It's usually every other race facing it from white america. As a white person, I don't feel oppressed at all. I don't understand why people confuse movements like BLM with oppression. Being told I'm a big bad straight white devil hardly effects me and does not impede on my ability to live a fulfilled life in any way shape or form. When it comes to racism between other races that aren't white, again, it never reaches the same level. Point blank, I'm not afraid of black supremacy, native supremacy, asian supremacy, etc. when their population is so minuscule compared to ours. And then considering how little of them are actually racist, it's no actual threat compared to white supremacy. Personally, I don't like any form of racism or exclusion coming from anybody, but when a Native American is bitter towards white people because of his ancestors being almost completely exterminated from the planet and being forced on reservations where they live in shitty conditions I can understand that much more than the guy with the nazi flag claiming that diversity is stealing white culture.

Tribalism creates racism.
My calling mlk anti white was to mock people who hate BLM but who would celebrate MLK as an historical figure, when the general population's opinion on MLK in his time mirrors their complaints about BLM.
Racism is a systemic issue. People who identify as white mistakenly believe that racism is incidental. Someone calls you a slur and it is them calling you a slur. Racism is contributed to in structural, systemic ways. Someone calling you a slur is also a history of debasement of you and your family, economic disadvantage, higher rates of police targeting and abuse despite evidence which shows poc aren't more likely to commit crimes, harsher sentencing and unfair treatment in prison, etc.
People who identified as white created the myth of race to justify their exploitation of the communities they came in contact with, namely indigenous populations of every continent they found.
They created a story that placed them on the hierarchical ladder. By perpetuating the myth of whiteness you are buying into that myth and perpetuating the idea that there are inherent differences between what white identified people claimed were distinctions in race based on perceived skintone differences, cultural differences, etc.
Fwiw, I don't believe in evil or devils, white or otherwise.
Why don't I go after black people or brown people etc? Because they aren't in power and don't have a broken and corrupt system behind them justifying their abuses. When POC are upset at white identified people it is usually because of abuse by white identified people, and isn't generally from a cultural lie about genetic and cultural superiority, nor does it come with several hundred years of violent abuse.
ETA: When it comes to non black POC being racist against other POC, i will generally call them out. The Latinx communities I have direct experience with tend to have incorporated strong anti-black sentiments. In the LA area, and I'm assuming in others, especially where gangs are prevalent, a lot of mutual distrust and violence has built up over the decades as a result of the white power structure pitting the two demographics against each other.
So nice false equivalency there but the two aren't equal.

Nothing Noah has said has even a minute ounce of truth in it. If anybody is buying into a myth of "whiteness" it's you. White privilege isn't real. Whites don't run the world. There's no racial or gender wage gap. There's no such thing as systematic or institutional racism. It's a false belief originated by "victims". People who hate police though they've never been harassed by police type of people. Stays poor but hates whitey for having money type of nonsense.
When POC are upset at "white identified people" it's probably cause some schmuck is saying the things that make them upset. Like whites don't get harassed by anybody ever type of nonsense, whites make more in the workplace or Al Sharpton appearing whenever he thinks there's money to be made off of black people nonsense.
When a latin and black gang have beef it's more than likely because of tribalism. Not the white power structure (whatever the fuck that is). A lot of what you read off of those third and fourth rate blog sites for the progressive left are full of bullshit kid.
Any Che Guevara fans?

No, white privilege is the idea that because of the history of your race you are more likely to be born into a better position and face much less adversity than colored people. It's proven to be true. Just like black privilege is being able to walk into a Starbucks demanding a free reparations coffee and getting it with out it being questioned.
And systematic oppression is proven to be true. Black people will receive harsher sentences than whites for the same crimes. Black people have been targeted by specific law enforcement agencies. Black people are less likely to receive justice than whites. Black people get followed around in stores and accused of being criminals for no real reason when whites don't. There's plenty of statistics to back this up.
And for the record, just because it's a fact that white people live in a system that holds them up over every other race I don't think it's an excuse to hate white people. I don't think white privilege means every white person will succeed and never faces obstacles and every black person is doomed to fail. My perspective is don't let oppression turn you into a victim, fight against it and succeed despite it. Pointing it out doesn't make you a victim either.

This is a great post. For what it's worth, I don't think -anybody- that has looked at racial justice is talking about white privilege as a signifier for absolute success or failure. It isn't a binary (wait did I ever hear back about that) and no one should think of it as such.
White privilege encompasses so much but what lucem said is a fantastic start.
As a white Latino I am often read as white and benefit from white privilege a lot. It still took me until my 30s to make it into a university and my dad is still a crackhead who lives on his sister inlaws couch.
White privilege is the prevailing culture of subtle white supremacy. It's Starbucks employees calling the cops on two black men sitting at a table while their friend pees, it's open carry laws being applied differently to white and black people, like when police were called because a black man had a gun in his hands at the Wal-Mart and he was shot to death. The gun was for sale and he picked it up off the rack in a state that allows open carry. (2A defenders should be pissed about John Crawford honestly). A study a few years ago also showed that people who emailed professors at major universities were less likely to receive responses from the professor if the email user signed a name that it's read as black (ie a stereotypical black name) against if the same exact email used a name read as white (ie stereotypical white name). Another example is kindergarten teachers were tested to show that they disproportionately punish black kids when compared to white kids.
These types of behaviors are well documented and studied. It isn't some bloggers half assed observation.
And the white power structure refers to our government and economic system which is largely controlled by white men. Most CEOs in the largest companies in the world are white men, the vast majority of mayors, governors, state legislators, congressional members, military leaders, and presidents of the United States are and have been historically white men. Most cable news organizations are run by white men, too.
You like Jordan Peterson so much, you should read some Foucault. He'll fuck you up. He's really interested in power dynamics and the way power protects itself. He isn't as fixated on race but just general power dynamics (like your relationship to your boss, a prisoner or students relationship to the institutional powers, etc).
Or maybe you need some Stokely Carmichael
