White Pride

[Vashtanaraada]

Pride is ultimately love.
Like all love, it is blindness.

[Christian State of Mississippi]

Indeed. But whites have showed so much love and devotion to God than any other race in history.

Does that mean that you shouldn't love thy neighbor as thyself, or that he doesn't look out for non-white Christians as much as white Christians?

Look, I'm not saying that God hates nonwhites and that we should hate them. I'm just saying that white folks are on the top of the pyramid and that God knows that.

Why should there be a pyramid?

[Devvo Mate]

White people have not been historically oppressed for centuries based on the colour of their skin. Black pride is a backlash to being told for God knows how long that you are subhuman, stupid, worthless, violent, not a real person. Whites have faced no such oppression so don't need an equivalent pride movement.

And... you're a racist.

Kudos, please enjoy your complementary white cowl and pointy hat.

What basis do you have for this claim, because I can assure, if you're using the Bible as source material, you're wrong.

[Mavorpen]

This logic always makes me laugh.

"Sir, did you kidnap this woman and rape her mercilessly for 10 years?"

"Yes, but I let her go of my own accord. I should be praised, right?"

Then all black people should be ashamed because it was black people who sold other blacks into slavery.

..What does this have to do with what I posted?

These whites are different people, they did something good when they saw that something bad was happening.

You were the one who lumped these people together by saying "white politicians of course," as though they were all a singular monolith.

A race is not a single person. It is many.

A race is nothing. It doesn't exist except as a social concept that forces it to be something.

Whites should be ashamed for starting two worlds wars then, eh?

Actually three if you count Napoleonic Wars.

I understand, and agree for the most part.
That's not to say light-colored people haven't been oppressed, though. Take the Finns for example, they were often very oppressed by the Russians.

Those are different ethnicities, who have smaller or larger (but still pretty much insignificant) genetic differences.

Yep. Neanderthals are different species. The pictures you posted, those are ethnicity. Not races.

The categorization of those people into "races" is socially constructed, yes.

[Vashtanaraada]

I am worried by the way people are trying to justify racialism with their spiritual beliefs.

Um, sir, you know the pyramids were built by pagans right?

I said based on the colour of their skin.

That is true, they were discriminated based on their ethnicity. Language and things like that. How much of a difference is that exactly, though?

Maybe current races, but do you not realize that there are certain genetic and cosmetic distinctions between different peoples across the world the same way there are differences in Dogs, or Wolves?

No. It's not the same as in dogs or wolves in any sense, especially dogs.

Those are so small that I'd think they're insignificant. Including because of the mixture of people with slightly different genes I'd say culture is a better way to differentiate people.

Dogs have been specifically bred for different purposes over the last couple of tens of thousands years, completely incomparable. And even then they are all still the same subspecies.

Breeding categories are not scientific.

No. Breeding categories are not scientific. They're all determined by Kennel Clubs...which is not a scientific organization.

No, he's comparing humans in general to dogs. Canine races are much more diverse though, and like I said, "miscegenation" makes a differentiation based on that more or less pointless anyway.
