They cannot achieve what white people consider civilized mostly because of those endless wars. I hate this planet…This was something I learned in 2003, but most people don’t realize it today. Imperialism is the highest stage of 🤡.

    Like genders, I view the white race to be largely a social construct. I do not view all white people as enemies. I don’t know why the downvotes happened, probably liberals.

      Look at the screeching about the majority white Russia, Belarus. Iranians and Syrians are pretty darn “white” too, but does that matter? No, it does not.

      Whiteness is a social construct, you’re totally correct. I think whiteness and white supremacy are intrinsically linked with capitalism and liberalism, as they seek to maintain the illusion of capitalism.

      On a surface level, whiteness is skin complexion. On a deeper level Whiteness is Western class collaborationism. That’s why we see various nations throughout history be excluded and then welcomed into the club of “whiteness.”

      The Irish used to not be white. The Italians used to not be white. The Japanese were white, while the Chinese weren’t, but then got kicked out of the white club, and now are being let back into it. Hispanics are currently being integrated into whiteness.

      It’s all such a bullshit illogical tool of division.

      There’s been people recently who have the exact same take as you, but then they take it a step further by going, “And that is by all white people are our enemies and they deserve to die and suffer no matter who they are”.

      You’re all good though, and don’t worry about the downvote, that happens a lot
