Regardless of accuracy of that statement, I don't see any compelling reasons for why white privilege discussions belong here.

Certainly, it's an academic concept to explain certain things that happen in the world. But people talking about their personal lives can probably avoid using by talking about actual things.

E.g., instead of talking about "male privilege", I could talk about having a guy groping my leg in public transport, or getting stared at, asked rude questions, or commented upon.

....not that I want to talk about _that_, either.
