My theory is that there's a US flag every few meters in the USA because they are so bad at geography that they wouldn't know in which country they are.
US? Did you mean the divided states formerly known as the country between Mexico and Canada?
Those of their citizens that would need a flag to know where they are would always just assume that they are in Magastan regardless of what they see around them.
I’ve lived in a place that was “all white” and they divided themselves up by nationality. Poles, Ukrainians, Slovaks, Czech, Italian.
There would be bars people would avoid because they were harassed for not looking right.
This was in Scranton/Wilkes-Barre at the turn of the millenium. Since then there’s been an influx of Hispanic people and now all the “whites” hate them together.
Also Italians weren't considered white either, in the late 1800s and early 1900s. They were above POC, but barely. They had to "prove their whiteness". Also Irish were predominantly Catholic so fuck them too. Its why a lot went on to become police, to show they weren't "filthy degenerate thieves" and served the community.
Once I saw this guy on a bridge about to jump. I said, "Don't do it!" He said, "Nobody loves me." I said, "God loves you. Do you believe in God?"
He said, "Yes." I said, "Are you a Christian or a Jew?" He said, "A Christian." I said, "Me, too! Protestant or Catholic?" He said, "Protestant." I said, "Me, too! What franchise?" He said, "Baptist." I said, "Me, too! Northern Baptist or Southern Baptist?" He said, "Northern Baptist." I said, "Me, too! Northern Conservative Baptist or Northern Liberal Baptist?"
He said, "Northern Conservative Baptist." I said, "Me, too! Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region, or Northern Conservative Baptist Eastern Region?" He said, "Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region." I said, "Me, too!"
Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region Council of 1879, or Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region Council of 1912?" He said, "Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region Council of 1912." I said, "Die, heretic!" And I pushed him over.
Asian people will divide themselves by skin color, features or nationality, too. Not immune to racism. Its partly a survival instinct from the past that is rearing its ugly side.
Okay, aside from the obvious "what the fuck happened to all the people" racist Thanos snap of it all, my real question is this: who is left behind? Because "white" is a made up category. I have 2% African ancestry, do I stay or do I go now? I have some level I don't remember if Asian ancestry, less than 5 percent. I also have higher than average neanderthal DNA. Does that part count as white? They're likely European Neanderthals... Go far enough back, obviously, and all humans are African descended.
Where do we draw the line? Because honestly, if there's some weird racist god out there snapping away people based on their DNA, I need to know the rules so I can make proper arrangements!
Yes, In the early 20th century, Irish and Italians didn't count, so the O'Reillys and Giulianis that people conservative (xenophobic) America would have a sharp surprise.
Was just about to say "You reckon the magical racist thanos snap would finally recognize north african and middle-eastern and azerbaijani and circassian and... groups as white now or still no?"
It is hilarious how accurate this is. Coming from a predominantly white country, our peoole have their own way to separate us in groups and hate each other.
I wouldn't say that POCs wouldn't do the same. It is just the humanity like this. Any big group if people would find ways to be grouped and to hate other groups. Only small groups will be friendly to each other.
Well, once upon a time, keeping tribes small, and being antagonistic towards folk who behave weirdly, were vital in preventing novel infectious disease from running through the population. We've seen recently the risk of a connected global community with COVID-19. The Spanish Flu epidemic also spread widely and killed up to fifty million people.
If your tribe gets an infection and you don't like anyone else much, then it stays in your tribe, and the rest of the population is safe(r).
If we can get past our differences, and develop large enough institutional infrastructure, then centralized disease control uses science and tracking to identify the bug and develop treatment. A good demonstration of this appears in the game Plague INC, in which you play an infectious disease, and watch how the global health sector detects you and responds.
Of course, it doesn't work perfectly, as we've seen, there are vaccine naysayers. There were some during the 1918–1920 flu pandemic, as well. And as we've seen with the AIDS/HIV pandemic, if the initial batch of victims are not liked much, it can delay response by the scientific community. But large health institutions improve lifespan and quality of life overall.
Yeah so basically he had this procedure done that drained all the toxicity out of his personality just over a year ago and ever since then he has become the very model of "the only good kind of fascist". Incredible growth. I wish all fascists could improve as people in the exact same way he did.
It's pretty vague and a lot of them are bordering on pseudoscience, but there are studies out there linking eye color to various positive/negative personality traits. Realistically, I think it's likely linking to genetic markers that are correlated but not necessarily causal but genetics is not my field of study.
In America, they would not have very long before they started having to forage for food.
A majorly significant portion of the workforce for agriculture are non-white.
There may be a few locations that can maintain business as usual, but the world is going to collapse, and it's not a question of if it's a question of when, and I'm guessing for most people that will be less than 30 days.
Of course I won't be there to see it, I will have been raptured along with the rest of everyone, so best of luck.
"Only white people" is what I'm going off of. That would mean no Asians, no natives, no middle eastern people. Just whites.
The whites would survive, but the world would be a different place and a lot of them would die from starvation and/or some inability to adapt to the world suddenly without people of color.
That would be true even if the 6.5 billion or so people that evaporated from the planet were chosen indiscriminately of race though, but given the vocational specialization of white vs nonwhite people then it would be worse for the survivors right at the beginning in the whites only scenario.
The issue isn't overpopulation, not at all, but that we have a bunch of countries with hyperconsumerist economy, a car in every household, high electricity usage, accessible red meat, air-conditioning etc.
White is about 10% of the population. It doesn't matter much that the 7 billion gone used less than them. 8 billion to 800 million. It feels like it can't help but reduce the world CO2 output significantly
And then the economic damage of losing Asia is unimaginable. You've never seen a depression like that would be. No manufactured goods would be available until Europe and the remains of America bring up industry
Why jump to eye colour when there's 'The Females' issue to take care of.
Then there's the categories of weight, and height. Nose length and width. Whether you poop standing up or sitting down. And it's not just hair colour, you've got the frizzies to alienate as well!!
They said "only white people" and gave an example as "no black people". They could have said "no asians" or "no french", but that doesn't matter. The first sentence excludes every demographic except white skinned people.
This is confusing. The are more than "white" and "black". If it's only white people left, does that mean anyone that's not of pure European descent is also gone? Is there a fraction that's allowable? 3/5ths?
We'd be looking at a potential extinction-level event for Homo Sapiens, in any case. It would be hard to come back from that.
There are about as many people in Europe now as there were in the whole world just before the Industrial Revolution. I know quite a lot of Europeans aren’t “white”, but humanity would be far from extinction.
Nah, it will still be the same, it will just be "white" and "actual white" or you know, all the other minorities that are white, like certain religions, countries, bloodlines, immigrants, etc.
Don't worry, we have so much bigotry that we don't even know what to do with it!
Lol I grew up in a 100% white town in northern mn. At the top of the pecking order was your Anglican protestant types, then the Catholics, then the pollaks(yours truly), and then at the bottom was the finnlanders. No one trusted them. They were always starting co-op's, saunaing naked, etc.
We could all look exactly the same and all be Christian, and the Protestants and Catholics would gang up on the Baptist's and Assembly of God and kill every one they can find.
... and they'd by delighted in their handiwork and brag to their grandchildren with pride.
"Divide & conquer" remains the elites' oldest and, by far, strongest trick. One tweet will have you hating <insert any race/gender/age/social status/...> Though subtly of course. Gotta maintain plausible deniability.
Gotta find a distraction somewhere, don't they? Can't have those.... peasants realize how badly they're getting fucked, and that actually coming together is a serious challenge to their hold on power
I once made the faux pas of mentioning the blue eye thing to a couple who each had blue eyes shortly before they had their first child, a healthy, brown eyed boy.
I’m not sure if it’s really 100% or if it’s like colorblind women, but it’s not my business either way and I definitely shouldn’t have gotten myself involved.
We will all kill each other, as there will be no one to do all the shitty jobs white people feel to entitled for. So nothing gets cleaned, nothing gets repaired, nothing gets built, logistics fail as ships have no personnel except white captains, politicians and businessmen get withdrawal effects because they cannot get their cocain anymore, etc. The only upside is that fascists like Trump, Musk, AfD, etc. have no purpose anymore, so their hate a fear spreading becomes useless and all that is left when the wall of hate falls is just failure.
Oh this really depends on the definition of "white", the USA "white" category includes people from Turkey, North Africa and the Arabian countries. AfD hates all of them.
Edit: before all the morally righteous people lose their heads in a shitposting community I suggest you see my previous comment regarding this stoopid screengrab over on the politicalmemes community.
In my comment history that’s my previous post - it starts with the same sentence as this one.

Eight million dead in the 1600s, they didn't even have AK-47s. Protestant vs. Catholic. Same race.

"Divide & conquer" remains the elites' oldest and, by far, strongest trick. One tweet will have you hating <insert any race/gender/age/social status/...> Though subtly of course. Gotta maintain plausible deniability.

Gotta find a distraction somewhere, don't they? Can't have those.... peasants realize how badly they're getting fucked, and that actually coming together is a serious challenge to their hold on power

Truth.
A certain segment of the population are incapable of accepting personal responsibility for themselves. They have to have others to blame.

I'd probably discriminate against hair color. Rangas being the lowest obviously and my hair color (brown) being the highest.

Do blue eyes make me special?

Fuck yeah they do. Every other color is marching toward Blue Eyed extinction!
Because we're recessive, every brown eyed/blue eyed couple is a step towards erasing our culture! (/s because this would 100% happen)

I once made the faux pas of mentioning the blue eye thing to a couple who each had blue eyes shortly before they had their first child, a healthy, brown eyed boy.
I’m not sure if it’s really 100% or if it’s like colorblind women, but it’s not my business either way and I definitely shouldn’t have gotten myself involved.

I was actually worried about this as a kid, after learning that blue + brown = brown, brown + brown = brown, but only blue + blue = blue.

I call mostly bullshit on both. People will just go straight to xonephobia. They already are doing this. It's just less visible than racism currently.
Also when you make a post against racism please avoid making a racist point no?

Hey maybe they'll find some novel division. Or be even more cliche and rank by paleness so having a tan is a sign of inferiority.

We will all kill each other, as there will be no one to do all the shitty jobs white people feel to entitled for. So nothing gets cleaned, nothing gets repaired, nothing gets built, logistics fail as ships have no personnel except white captains, politicians and businessmen get withdrawal effects because they cannot get their cocain anymore, etc. The only upside is that fascists like Trump, Musk, AfD, etc. have no purpose anymore, so their hate a fear spreading becomes useless and all that is left when the wall of hate falls is just failure.

Oh this really depends on the definition of "white", the USA "white" category includes people from Turkey, North Africa and the Arabian countries. AfD hates all of them.

Edit: before all the morally righteous people lose their heads in a shitposting community I suggest you see my previous comment regarding this stoopid screengrab over on the politicalmemes community.
In my comment history that’s my previous post - it starts with the same sentence as this one.
