Notice that a lot of Latin Americans are white
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_people#/media/File:European_Ancestry_Large.svg
If Asians are to be considered white, who is left among the non-whites? Well, according to the map, sub Sahara Africans and certain Latin Americans (e.g., Mexico, Peru).
Democrats have always believed there are inferior humans. The difference, nowadays, is Asians have shifted from non-white (i.e., inferior) to white (superior). So, at least Democrats nowadays see most of the people of the world as “created equal.” This is progress.
So how much money does a black person need to have before Dizzy Lizzy calls him “white?”
Indeed, there is no "Asian race," as there are dozens of races and cultures between the Bosphorus and the Bering Strait.
“Except for pink albinos.
Ah yes, we of Irish descent.
Actually, that description also, works for my wife and her siblings and cousins.
Their ancestors are from Wales, Western Europe/France and Switzerland, with a little Irish DNA.
A very good and much needed response to all this. Thank you.
“I will now start referring to all color groups as off white.”
That is good.
I would fall into the Semi White group.
Thank you for knowing that. I butt my head on wall when they assume Asian-Americans are only the Oriental people from China, Japan, Vietnam etc.
Asia is the largest continent out of the five, and it has people of all 3 main races. However the world is getting smaller every day which passes, and there are perhaps as many people in the world of mixed race than either pure Caucasian, Oriental or negroid. For example 90-95% of American-Africans have some caucasian blood mixed in.
It is well past time we heed MLK’s dictum of content of character over skin colors. Democrats are notorious in categorizing every person.
White is the color of paper I use for writing. I am yet to see a living person of that color. May be a few dead people can be called white after losing copious amounts of blood..
She’s had too many beers.
"No! People from Caucasus veddy bad. VEDDY BAD!"
Not only that. The founder of BET Black Entertainment TV Robert Johnson and Kanye West are White.
Wealth Inequality = Mafia Logic
“It is well past time we heed MLK’s dictum of content of character over skin colors. Democrats are notorious in categorizing every person.”
Spot on. One would think the faux indigenous American, having been burnt once, would have enough sense to stay out of identity politics. But apparently the category she most strongly identifies with is “moron”.
As you point out, the categories these clowns try to pigeon-hole people into are so nebulous as to be useless. Who goes into the “Latinx” drawer - the Spanish speaker who just immigrated from Barcelona (or is she white)? The border-crosser from Tijuana (or is he Indian)? The dark-skinned businessman born in Brazil (or is he black)?
It gets worse if one digs deeper. Apparently “Middle-Eastern” isn’t white - or maybe it’s *some* Middle-Easterns aren’t white. What box do we stick Jews in? White? Middle-Eastern? just Jewish? This sort of crap only leads to societal fragmentation, and it’s just a short step from that sort of division to outright hostility and worse - and as Europe in the twentieth century should have taught us, that story does not end well.
who talks about race and color??
THE LEFT LIBERALS!
That’ll work!
Trying to rule with propaganda not facts!
Race, class, gender = demoKKKrats mantra.
Live by the race card, die by the Race Card. Racism sucks!
