I propose we settle on the fact that White is a socio-political tag, made up of numerous factors including light/white skin, straight hair, Indo-European language speaking, often with blue/green/hazel eyes, etc. -- Cross this with dark/black skinned, curly haired, Bantu-speaking peoples.....it's nowhere close. Opposite ends of the spectrum.

Straight Hair? You earn 20 White points
Don't Speak a European language? -20 White points
White/Light Skin? 50 White Points
Green/Blue eyes? 50 White Points
Lactose Intolerant? -10 White Points
Liberal/Progressive Vegetarian Hippie? +200 White Points
etc.

My system also explains why lighter-skinned people invest so heavily in Hip-Hop music and culture. The more White points they can lose, the better.

my dad's side on the other hand, was taught to resent their latin/native heritage. my grandma didn't teach her kids spanish...they were just taught to try to seem as white as possible....but they didn't look white, so it they were teased and it caused a lot of confusion
i cant stand that shit. i still dont understand why mexican mothers refuse to teach their children about mexican culture and wont stand for their children speaking spanish and them being bilingual like its a bad thing. i had a friend whose mom was first generation. and hated herself for being mexican.. both of her parents were from mexico came here as illegals, taught her about her ancestors and she spoke fluent spanish, yet she would tell me she wasnt latin or hispanic or mexican because she was born here. she said her daughter had no business speaking spanish because this wasnt mexico. her krazy ass had american flags all over her fuckin house. and if she saw anyone with a mexican flag she would flip. i just dont know wut runs through ppls heads who do that. shit really crawls under my skin.

The Portuguese people I know are proud Portuguese people, not proud white people. How can people be proud of being white? I still don't get it. To me, it's like people being proud of NOT being black, Latino, Asian, Middle Eastern, etc.,
lmao, what a retard, you cant be proud to be white cause in essence that means your proud to not be other things. but someone proud to be black isnt saying hes proud to not be white. im white, and im proud of it, cause its a characteristic that describes me. i thin everyone should be proud to be whatever they are, because it doesnt define them, but it still makes up their description

What we all can agree upon is the fact that hate is ubiquitous and not restricted to skin color or "interracial" matters.

Humans always need something to hate in order to find a reason to form an exclusive group and by that obtain a fake, ignorant, and selfish sense of security and inimitability.

If your not hated based on the color of your skin, you are hated because of your denomination, your social class, the clothes you wear etc.
Since most of Europe is considered "white", people had to find other reasons besides skin color and race to hate.

White people from Germany are hated by white people from all over Europe because of our past.
White Catholics from Northern Ireland hate white protestants from Northern Ireland.
White Basques kill White Spaniards.
White English people hate white German people because of Football.
White rich people hate white proletarians and vice versa.
White hooligans hate other White hooligans. White Celtic fans hate white Rangers fans.
White German people hate white people from poland or other white people from Eastern Europe, because they work for lower wages and under worse conditions and by that "steal" their jobs.

I'm not prourd to be white.
The only thing im proud of are the things I have accomplished in my life.
Why would i be proud of having white skin? Why would i be proud of something that i didnt even achieve myself?
Why would i be proud to be white, because somone who had the same skin color than me invented the Computer or the Telephone? I didn't do it.
Some other people, with whom i have most definitely NOTHING in common with, besides that they happened to have white skin, made those inventions and not me.

On the other hand, I did not kill 2 million jews, either.
I did not yell HEIL HITLER whenever this closet homosexual one testicle having motherfucker passed along.
Im not the one who came to Amerikkka or Africa and killed, raped, exploited and humiliated millions of people in order to gain personal wealth or reputation.
Yet, because of the fact that my skin is white and because i was born in Germany, I'm supposed to take over responsibility for something that was done by people who have NOTHING in common with me, besides the color of skin ??

I never judge people based on skin, i judge based on character and actions.
I don't give a fuck what color your skin is.
I got friends from all different backgrounds and im always grateful for any new cultural knowledge i can gain.
My sister is eventually marrying a guy from Iran and i think it's one of the best things that could possibly happen to my family.
