What percentage of the world is white?

Jim Bob Scratcher

9.8% according to wiki, just think about that, yet we are the racist boogeyman? how absurd is that? White Europeans are the minority, and that's fact, whether people like it or not. Yet we are the enemy? any immigrant or asylum who comes comes here is treated like royalty.

See, this is why history being taught in school is important, and why children being taught at home is a bad idea.

Dear poster.
It's probably the history of killing, burning, lynching, land stealing, resource grabbing, beating etc.

Look up the % wealth and how it was acquired while you're at it.



Also, reported this fairly disgusting racism.

The smartest thing about this thread is that you placed it in this forum.

South African Apartheid.
Yes, White European were the bogeymen.
Yes, they were in the minority, that was a fact.

This has to be the most thinly veiled racist whataboutery thread I've ever seen.

I don't see how the OP is racist.

Ill informed yes, by thinking that immigrants are treated as royalty and not seeming to understand the context of European colonial domination of the last few centuries.

But not racist.

People need to stop throwing out that term for every post they disagree with.

To be fair to the OP

1) The things you mention are in no way unique to the white population, either throughout history or today
2) I don't see how his post qualifies as racist (insensitive most certainly)

It is possible to believe racism should be completely eliminated and also believe that white people are not the uniquely responsible for it.

Racism is not only about skin colour.

Mod: There's a distinction between views that are only stupid and/or ignorant, versus views that are both stupid/ignorant and offensive.

It's honestly hard to not write you off as trolling by creating this thread.

Thread closed, and if you open another thread along those lines again, I'll revoke your access to the forum.
