Eh, I just thought that going into Nationalism is better than race, but still, people just kept on going.
You see the problem with this thread? It’s all about race, just like how the political shitfest is being talked about in recent years. A decade ago we werent even squealing on identity politics, I’d say if both sides of this idiotic argument drop the race card, we’re all better for it.
The US census has defined white as a person having origins in any of the original peoples of Europe, the Middle East, or North Africa
By that def, most take Arabs to be white vis a vis being from the Middle East
You appear to have an idiosyncratic definition of white.
The U.S census also considers Hispanics who are half Mestizo to be whites, when they are mixed race.
Exactly why race is a corrupt concept
Except it’s not. There are plenty of DNA differences between the races to make them distinct.
There are population differences yes. But race is corrupt for the very reason that you are using it differently than US census, etc etc
It’s not. Even in the U.S “white” by the majority of people is regarded as referring to light skinned people primarily of a European origin.
Is an octoroon white?
Is the muffin man white?
Plessy v Ferguson
Vince Vaughn
Heller v. DC,
While we’re throwing out irrelevant court cases.
Eats Popcorn
Ayy admins, where is the banhammer?
Banhammer for what? It’s an off topic thread, no forum rules are being broken.
Plessy was 7/8 white, 1/8 black. He was judged to be black. And his case created Jim Crow
Well, am waiting for a bigger shitstorm, so I thought I’d pre-empt something.
But then again, I am contributing to this Flaming mess.
And your point? Modern mixed race people are generally considered not over 50-60% one race.
Was he white? Is Vince Vaughn?
It’s arbritrary. That’s why you have no leg to stand on
Is the muffin man?
He had majority white blood, so yes he would be white.
But he was judged to be black! Arbitrary!
VV is 1/4 Lebanese
By the standards of an 1890s court. Irrelevant to todday, and this discussion. No one aside from maybe some autistis on 4chan would seriously attempt to argue he wasn’t white.
