Would reclassifying certain ethnic groups as 'white' save a lot of stress

[Techno-Druid]

Could reclassifying Arabs, Berbers, Persians, Hispanics (mestizo) and other ethnic groups that share ancestry and close appearance to Europeans be classified as white and could it save people a lot of trouble?

It could possibly take racism out of the equation.
What do you think?

It's not really been a big thing to describe people as "white" or such in Sweden up until recently. Here it's been ethnicity based or region based instead, with the exception of "neger".

[Revi]

... What trouble?

[ellieg]

No. Because it wouldn't change in the minds of the people. Hispanics are technically white right? Ask most americans and they wouldn't consider them white. "they aren't white enough"

[Damajin]

No, it just whitewashes stigma which helps no one. Also you're seeing this giant revolt against PC shit for things far less serious, leave that rattlesnake alone.

[GennGreymane]

Honestly we should just disregard the idea.

i already see arabs and such as white, because they're caucasoids. just because they're tanner doesn't change their bone structure.

[Alvito]

Holy shit you came up with the answer! Everybody is white problem solved. While we are at it lets take care of other world issues. Everybody is well fed, nobody is poor, everybody is healthy...... wait just saying nonsense doesn't fix things. Well crap.

which is stupid. i definitely consider them white.

though, you could argue that a lot of mexicans have a lot of native in them, making them more of a mix between caucasoid and mongoloid.

Yeah, a majority of latinas are mestizos, a mix of Native American and European. A majority of Mexicans are Aztec/Spaniard.

Yes white washing is the problem to the world's issue. It's sad when white people continue to erase minorities, especially black people.

[Ealyssa]

There was racism toward italians for decades in europe. Saying someone is now withe wont change a thing at all.

You can't simply decrete the end of racism, it's stupid.

Let me guess you're one of those people who thinks the ancient egyptians were actually white?

they were something between congoids and caucasoids, that's for sure. they weren't what you'd consider a black person.

the nubians are the ones you're likely thinking of. they were black.

I don't even know what most hispanics look like but if zimmerman is to go by, I'd say they are white if I saw someone like that in front of me.

Race problems are a source such an incredible amount of power.

The people who claim to have the "answers" are actually the ones creating the problems for the specific purpose of being able to swoop in with the "answer".

They're not going to give that up.

Its just one giant power grabbing scam.

These people don't give a fuck about race relations they just want a bunch of SJWs and enraged minorities out there with their emotions whipped up voting with their feels instead of their common sense.

Is it any surprise that after 8 years of a President who was supposed to solve all race issues, /cough peace prize, that things have become worse than they have ever been?

Fact is things were getting better, too much better, and that strips away power.

I think the better term to use would be homo sapiens, or human/person for everyday use.

hispanics come in a pretty wide variety of skin colors.

some can definitely be called white, because they not only have light skin, but they have caucasoid facial features. others, i would say are that mix between mongoloid and caucasoid, others are congoids with black skin.

Arabs, Berbers, Persians, Hispanics

But they aren't white. Neither are Europeans, British, or Iberians.

They simply aren't white, only pure blood scandinavians are white. Even Hitler knew he wasn't white-his entire (insane)dogma was devoted to a group of people he wasn't even part of.

Only dumb racists with high amounts of melanin group all these people into the 'white' category when what they really mean is 'civilized'.

There is 99% chance that you are not actually white. Not even the Irish, or the Italians, or the Armenians, or the Canadians etc. In fact name a group of whites and I can prove that they aren't actually white. The more I have to explain it the more I feel like I'm taking crazy pills. It's like I live on a planet powered by pure Irony where not even the Neo-nazis are white.

You just won the thread.
