mmm 879 Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 They have been acting this way ever since the movement started this is not new. Ive never met a none racist BLM person unless they dont really know anything about BLM and they just say they support them because thats what your supposed to say. The fact that they think only white people can be racist is racist by itself. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

By using the term "white passing", you present the whiteness as more desirable in one way or another. First of all, there is no such thing people of color, you polarize all those other people with respect to white people again which implies that "white is us and normal, rest is other and less" is prescribed in your mentality. There is no such thing called white people. Let alone scientific, it does not even have a popularly accepted folk meaning. More gravely, you consider all those people, white passing POCs because your mentality is fixated on "one drop rule". Jessica Alba for example, half latino, half white in your mind but your sick mentality interprets this as lost purity of whiteness. I mean I do not even talk about the fact that Latino is not a race. If we are gonna group up latins, are we gonna divide whites to slavs, hellens, germanics, nordics Are we going to call tanned southern Italians POC passing whites Sounds ridiculous, right. Moreover all those you mentioned are ethnicities to start with. Even in their logically crippled definitions, they are ethnicities: white americans, african americans, latino americans. Because white is not a race, even the naturalized racial categories don't have such thing as white: there are slavs, germanic ppl etc etc If you wished a unified american nation by psychological makeup that manifests itself in common mores, you should have only cared about citizenship but your language doesn't carry the mindset. Woah, woah, woah, I know you did not just say that I have "a troublesome perspective" or a "sick mentality"; you do not come for me like that because I am not the one. And wherever did I say that is how I see people, the way you are assuming I do? I'm just telling you how society works. POCs do exist because of how the West treats race, white people and white passing people exist as a result as well, all because of how race is presented in society. And yes, those things that I have mentioned can be considered ethnicities but they're mostly not in how the US sees it as a whole. There is a white identity in America as much as their is a black identity, all tied to down to race which is more than just ethnicity as it usually involves phenotypes. So let's not take my words and contort them because you believe I'm saying something that I didn't even mention at all in my post And language does unite people or at least makes a culture which unites people, so I'm confused as to why you don't say it carries the mindset; what mindset are you even talking about? Also, I'm not sure where you get your ideas of citizenship because citizenship is usually a culmination of a variety of factors. And just because you may be a citizen of a certain country, that does not mean you will be united if you don't have cultural ties to others with the same citizenship. I'm just confused as to how you think people will be united in a realistic fashion, not one a hypothetically great one that depends on individuals' altruism. Some ideas are great on paper, but ultimately fail in practice Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Topic itself is specific to the Toronto chapter of BLM too. BLM Toronto is officially a mess, first forcing Pride Committee to ban Police Flotilla, now cofounder losing it. The co-founder of the Toronto chapter of the Black Lives Matter protest movement has come under scrutiny in recent days for an old Facebook post that declared that white people were genetically inferior to their black peers. “Whiteness is not humxness,” wrote Yusra Khogali in a now-deleted post (using gender-neutral alternative spelling). “In fact, white skin is sub-humxn. All phenotypes exist within the black family and white [people] are a genetic defect of blackness.”Khogali proceeded to go an extended pseudoscientific rant about the benefits of dark skin, according to The Toronto Sun. “Melanin enables black skin to capture light and hold it in its memory mode which reveals that blackness converts light into knowledge,” she claims at one point. “Melanin directly communicates with cosmic energy.” “White [people] are recessive genetic defects. This is factual,” she claimed, nonfactually. Khogali made the Facebook post months ago, but her comments resurfaced after she declared Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau “a white supremacist terrorist,” earning her criticism from liberal allies.http://www.mediaite.com/online/black-lives-matter-leader-white-people-are-sub-human-genetic-defects/ So by her rationality, light-skin POC or other non-black/white people are "Semi defective." Like focus on the actual system of racism and ditch the whole "We have to demonize everything associated with white skin itself." "Recessive genetic defects," girl get your science together, recessive doesn't automatically mean "defective." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So let's not take my words and contort them because you believe I'm saying something that I didn't even mention at all in my post You are telling how american society works. There is no concept of POC in modern day Europe. Europeans define themselves off of their ethnicity not their skin color. Example: An Italian is an Italian, you can't differentiate them ethnically or racially as white or brown Italians based on how a typical Italian would be expected to look like from Lombardy vs Apulia (latter would be expected to be more tanned). Neo colonial racism has rarely been defined by traditional racism based on phenotypes except USA. This neo racism is also often called cultural racism. It is basically about creating an US vs THEM narrative, and point out to cultural differences by depicting OTHERS\THEM in an unrealistic monolithic way which serves as the foundation to show cultural differences as unsurmountable concepts but not in a natural way, mostly in a negative way. This is the foundation Donald Trump acts upon when he says mexicans are rapists. When you say that Jessica Alba is not white, it means that you entertain the same idea because Jessica Alba looks white, I just use to the term to depict something when you raise that word to a cultural level like you do, it simply prepares the foundation to entertain Trump style racism. Moreover, US is a nation of immigrants, american simply means people of America while France is the land of franks, Turkey is the land of turks; US is not a nation state, in that sense one can become american regardless of their ethnicity in a way that they cannot become greek or german. Jessica Alba is half of mix of european descendants and half mexican, and by the way as far as I know mexicans are also mix of europeans and amerindians. There you have 25% of amerindian but when you describe her you describe her by her difference, I say difference because term people of color simply encompasses every single people who is not white which puts whiteness as center of racial hierarchy. You apply one drop rule literally, and words and thought processes you use show that you also see whiteness as the central part of racial hegemony. I do not say you have bad intentions but your way of thinking has its roots in the same thinking that Donald Trump has. Cultural racism is not good but mixing it with traditional racism just makes it much more worse. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
