This is the reply from CatratchoPalestino that started everything I think: https://hexbear.net/comment/4389987

and this is the effort post in response to what had happened: https://hexbear.net/post/1423571

People here always say that whiteness isn't clearly defined then turn into race scientists the second a POC challenges their preconceived notion of who is white lmao.

I've seen your arguments with various crackers on this site, and I have tremendous respect for you to be able to keep your composure around them while standing your ground. This place can get so unbearably white and misogynistic at times... so mad props

Re-reading the thread and the responses are wild. Like much more than I initially thought

America is technically mixed race, but the average white American is 98.5% white (and western european to boot), unlike any "white" person in any Latin country where even the least mixed people are still 20% Native admixed

that's like 90% of Latin America or 75% of South America. They're not white, they're admixed with Europeans. Just like Black Americans are. I know a lot of you think you're white because you're lighter skinned than black people. Arabs and lighter skinned Indians also think that a lot of the time. They're not. Almost everyone in Northern Europe and Anglo America can tell the difference

and tbh even Argentinians don't really look that white to me on average.

Italians also just look different in a way which doesn't exist for Irish Polish or even Russian people. They're darker, and they look more proximal to Arabs or Mexicans depending on who you ask. only from the (visibly darker pigmented) European periphery of Spain

holy FUCK. How are these different from 4Chan comments

Oh yeah they definitely would. Wasn’t there a small-ish struggle session a few months ago where people were arguing whether Latin America is considered a “Western” country? And some users from Europe were like, “Nuh-uh, over here your kind would never be considered one of us”. The threads felt like those 4-chan who is and who isn’t white discussions.

wdym? it's pretty believable. just look at the red underlines and the side-by-side photos! the resemblance is uncanny

Americans, Euros, and Aussies: “Noooooo those asians beat us that one time in swimming. They must be doping!!!1”

Meanwhile, the US swim team:

Oh boy I love these semi-realistic image representations of a doomed America as fantasized by chuds

Obamna: resurrects Marx and starts the Marxian transformation of America

Kamala: continues Obama’s legacy, implements 1000% full gommunism

its his turn
