Pretry much every example I have heard about what white privilege is is an example of that. Things like being represented in positions of power, or media or art, experience less racism, etc.

These are consequences of being a minority, are they not? White people in China or any other country where they are a minority don't have these advantages.

If you’re willing to look outside the US and other white majority countries you’ll find examples of ‘majority privilege’ that isn't ‘white’.
