Im asking because I do not have the association of being White. Maybe thats because Ive been outcast about three hundred times in my life and always there were whites involved. I don’t feel White People behave as if I am part of their club or something. And I do have the impression this goes for more white people.
And I also think this goes for a lot of black people.
I just don’t believe in race.
I believe in subtler, nicer things, like tribes. Maybe thats just because Im rooted in two very nice tribes. Maybe White-ism is a marker for people who have no properties other than a light skin. I don’t know. I fucking hate the categorization of mankind by skin colour. I think whichever way you look at it, this is a problem.
Another thing to point that out. Do you think a black dude from California is much alike to someone from Nigeria? I don’t think so. I think that person is more likely, in all respects, to resemble a white dude from California.
Values define an entity. An entity is truly defined by how this entity responds to things, by what he responds to and how, and maybe why. Not so much by how others respond to him, even though that does go a long way in defining his own responses. But least of all a person is defined by how much light his skin reflects or absorbs. Not a priori.
Im not with promethean in believing in iq differences between races. At most in terms of being conditioned to certain types of puzzles, maybe. I believe rather in an IQ difference between Capitalists and Socialists. Id put any amount of money on that difference being very vastly to the advantage of Capitalist, by maybe 20 points. Whereas between white and black Americans… I just don’t see it.
