pretty telling that first reation of some here can be summed with: what is really white?
You must log in or register to comment.
The far right already dislike white people from eastern Europe
You didn’t even have to remove white people for black people to start subdividing into shades of black. Racism is stupid. Being a certain race doesn’t make it any more or less stupid for you to do it.
Non-American here… So it’s only black people or are my best drinking buddies (Bosnian and Turkish) Even more important question does my Chinese wife, my half Chinese daughter and my wonderful mother-in-law still exist…?
I get this question is from an American who doesn’t actually understand the world… But it makes me very irate.
If this was Reddit I’d go on a long drunken rant…(I actually started trying to explain)
Holy shit America, Elon Musk is the reason you are suffering right now.
This is your daily reminder that Irish and Italians weren’t considered white at the beginning of the 20th century in America.
Hell, some people in Europe don’t consider albanians to be white.
Also I’d be very concerned as to where all the racial minorities went. Like genuinely concerned.
One of my favorite facts was that West Side Story was initially about the rivalry between polish and Italian immigrants in New York and Leonard Bernstein had to rework it because he received feedback that it would be too niche and people who didn’t live in New York in a very specific window of time wouldn’t get it.
People who don’t live in Europe don’t even realise how divided white Europeans are. The Irish and Eastern Europeans are even victims of colonisation.
And forget North America and Europe, just look at Africa and tell me they did not have inter-ethnic conflicts.
The post is very silly and North Americancentric.
Literally Brexit was mostly about Brits not liking other Europeans being free to move to Britain, especially Poles.
I lived in London and unless they actually start talking and you hear their accent (or, even “worse” for the average Brit, their language) you can’t actually tell a Pole from a Brit.
So. yeah, a fucking mid-sized country in the modern era has left a massive European trade union which gave them massive benefits (it has been estimated that Britain’s GDP is growing 2% less every year because of leaving) because of their xenophobia against other Europeans, especially Eastern and Southern Europeans.
Plot twist: Chinese and Indians are not racial minorities.
There’s too many minorities!
🎶At my water park 🎶
Raptured.
With all these immigrants, Heaven for sure has become a bad place, which is why I refused to go there when offered!! When God comes to his sense and remigrate them, I’ll reconsider!!
What, you doubt me? Such a lack of faith! You must be a bad Christian! You’ll probably go to Hell!
And shit Albanians are the whitest anyone could be, being albino and shit
Whitest people I’ve seen are from northern China. Europigs have nothing on the…
The left handed people will be beat again. They know what they did.
Also, are we counting the Irish as black again?
STORMIN LIGHTEYES
In no particular order:
- Mourn the loss of numerous family, friends, and acquaintances.
- Panic and prepare for the impending crash of my society’s essential supply chains.
- Existential meltdown at the idea that billions of people can vanish overnight.
What a stupid fucking question.
I’d probably start by trying to figure out what the fuck happened to everyone.
Dead ass what would happen, gingers would become the new “blacks”
They are already called potato n-I’m not going to finish that.
It will be hair color first. I have red hair so I’m next on the petty hate machine.
History already showed what happens. 90% chance people start going for the Irish.
Don’t forget Italians.
Also Catholics in general.
People are incredibly good at creating out-groups and attacking them.
And the Irish will start going at Dubliners, and Dubliners will start going at North Dubliners?
It will be skin colour again, but limited to a tighter spectrum.
People really forget that racism against Italians and Irish was a thing.
Poor Irish folk. I love the Irish. And while I’ve plenty of opportunity to watch blazing saddles it just doesn’t appeal to me. Is it wrong of me to defend the Irish in light of my ignorance of this humorous show?
It would be wrong not to defend the Irish.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_rule_in_Ireland?wprov=sfla1
It still is.
It’ll just be the intra-European racism that already exists, which doesn’t particularly follow skin color.
Germanic, Celtic, Slavic, Mediterranean, etc… Each with their own subdivisions ready to go if the others were wiped out.
As a man from that little village here, fuck those cunts from the village over there! Their fields are full of hamsters and their wheat smells of elderberries.
mediterreans would be darker skin, so they are the first targets. then it goes to anti-semitism in the end.
Historically, no. In Germanic regions it’s first Jews, then Slavs, then Celts, then Mediterraneans. Mediterraneans get credit for the Reniassance, Greco-Roman civilization and Christianity.
Mediterranean is too broad. Northern Italian and Greek were ok for Nazis.
Certainly not Libyans, Egyptians, Palestinians etc.
I was going to say, some pasty motherfuckers who can’t be exposed to the sun for 15 minutes without going to the hospital are going to say they’re the superior people.
Nah, as such a pasty motherfucker, other white people expect you to tan. I grew up being teased for my paleness and my neighbor offered to let me use her tanning bed. (I declined because I burn but don’t tan).
My public school system was 100% white until my senior year of high school when a black family sent their kids to kindergarten.
They tried, but everyone supported Macklemore.
they will divide by the whites that have darker skin, then goes to religion , like jewish people.
The Sneetches learned their lesson…we have not.
Depending on your definition of ‘white’, probably start scavenging for the upcoming crisis. The loss of like 90% of the world’s population will create a supply chain crisis and general systems collapse. Who knows what skills and technologies are lost.
Given that it’s only non-whites that are gone, no skills or technologies were lost ;)
I hope to the gods old and new that the winkyface means you are actually joking, not “hahah only serious” joking.
Their comment history suggests they are being serious.
Well, that one’s getting a downvote, a user note, and a block.
;)
So glad I learnt how to add a note on Voyager. This is very helpful
Wait. How does this work? I can’t find these and I really miss tags I had in Apollo.
Make sure you enable them in settings ->user tags, “enable user tags”. Then, go to a user page, unroll the top right menu and “edit tag”
Yeah… Racist and a transphobe, who could have guessed?
“Transphobe” implies fear. There is no fear.
You have a middle schooler’s understanding of the world around you, and that is being unkind to most middle schoolers.
phobia can also mean aversion, as in hydrophobic…or an aversion to water.
Did your parents drop you on your head when you were younger? Or did you have to work to become so ignorant?

You’re afraid of the funny feeling you get in your parts when you see a hot trans gal
Or just another pathetic, basement dwelling edgelord, spending his time looking to get a reaction by being an absolute moron. I have a hard time believing people are that stupid
For future reference if the username ends in @sh.itjust.works you can just assume the worst.
Yes - 100% this. I can confirm I’m a total cunt.
I wouldn’t say I’m a good representative of my home instance, you bigot. It’s a Canadian instance, and I don’t reside there.
You give Darkwing Duck a bad name asshole.
Did you mean “a bad rep”?
They’re both valid statements
Skills and technology won’t matter when you starve because you don’t have the hispanics doing all the agricultural work.
There’s also a 90% reduction on food demand, don’t forget. Can live on stored food for some time while figuring out production.
You are the reason nobody likes you.
Excuse me, but what country provides the most printed silicon for chip manufacturing, and what ethnicity are they?
Now consider how much of our daily technology we take for granted makes use of that printed silicon.
That’s just one example.

Rare Earth minerals and the skills and equipment to process them are not in the Western world. It is, however, in a grand multitude of countries elsewhere in the world, all of which wouldn’t be considered “white”. And… That covers everything from guided missiles to toys.
The most efficient production lines in the world, with the most advanced manufacturing capabilities, are in China. China sells the equipment and the skill to manage the equipment to its neighbours, and we get everything from clothes to tooth brushes from that.
The world has ONE, only ONE, major source of Gum Arabic, which is a country in Africa you’ve probably never even heard of. This includes the skills and expertise to manufacture it, and it’s used in food and paint.
Do I even need to mention where the world gets the majority of its oil from, and where all the skilled workers and equipment is to process said oil? Or how important oil is to the world, even completely discounting its use as a fuel?

You exact quote was:
Given that it’s only non-whites that are gone, no skills or technologies were lost ;)
Skills and technology can always be reproduced, more easily if adequate documentation exists. However, that is not your premise. Your premise is no skills or technology would be lost, which is just wrong. All of it will be lost, and whoever will be left will need to go through the long process of learning and reproducing said skills and technology, which can take multiple generations.

They already did, if that didn’t exist, they’d divide themselves by language, which is a thing in Europe, except it got less popular due to the importing of American White Nationalism.
