This, I am Dutch and I'm white. I identify with the first part a lot more than the second, and I know Dutch people of all colors who do as well. Making it about race is just like any other politics: dividing subjects in hard lines where there really isn't one.
BTW for the American people: black people here are very different from yours from what I can tell. They don't play the eternal victim card as much (that's usually done by the bored white housewives here).
Blacks here are usually mixed with "white", just diluted.
I say "white" because they don't know what they are, be it what specific country/tribe they're from for both African and whatever European is in them.
Yours are probably straight from Africa and probably didn't really deal with the general racial drama that'd be forced upon them in America.
The largest part of me is 1/16 Irish and the rest is all white. Various parts of my linage can be traced to the american revolution and being an American is basically what I identify with... But a lot of people out there are Anti-America. I wish people would get on board with patriotism again and stop fighting each other and start looking at the real threat, communist government like China and Russia.
>and the rest is all white.
Yeah, what?
German? English? Scottish? French? Italian? Swiss? Norwegian? Dutch? Romanian?
My point clearly went over your head.
There are "philanthropists" who would prefer that and of course, the mainstream idea is that we have it better, that we are weak and frail but also oppressive and tyrant, that slavery has been all only a white thing somehow when this is demonstrably false and the fact that this is all being parroted on mainstream media and independent media alike.
That said there's still more people that aren't swayed by the idea of getting any race out of the picture. Just like the patriarchy thing, when you have a talk with some honest working class people they will say it's all a crock of shit. It's the middle class that's most invested in this because they are babies that have too much time to be indoctrinated into these ideas. You'll find similar horse shit from either true white supremacists or ethno state advocates though, just pointing at different races and done by people who are more frequently lambasted.
literally yes to all of those....
Yes, it's why every single white country is endlessly being flooded with third worlders. They aren't trying to genocide exactly, just destroy voting demographics and take full control politically. What happens after that will not be pretty, unless you're a 1%er megalomaniac.
All of those. Everything from Slavic Portuguese. My point is that my lineage is so diluted, it feels a bit silly to celebrate any specific country. I might as well be celebrating my .5% Native American or my .02% Mongolian (Thanks Genghis)
Pick anything, I guess. People can't exactly refute you.
You actually need both rather than just choosing one or the other. Without the racial component, your ethnicity is as good as dead. There is a reason why Britain and many European nations are slowly dying out. Intermixing will be the death of Europe and the ethnicities that make it. Especially in a time where there are many other racial groups in the world than there are of Europeans.
