    I'm quite certain that through out the 20th century Ukrainians suffered from worse malnutrition than Black Americans did.

    Not just during the Holodomor where millions of Ukrainians starved to death, but even today when Ukraine is ridiculously poor when compared to African Americans.

    What if your premise that the genetics of the people defined as 'blacks' and 'whites' (based on their ancestral proximity to Europe or Africa) are essentially identical is proven false by future scientific research?

    Relying on this argument leaves anti-racism wide open to attack, for example by Michael Levin's research on intelligence (in which there is a racial hierarchy with Jews at the top and blacks at the bottom).

    Anti-racism should be robust enough to deal with the possibility that racial differences are significant and not entirely environmental.

    Actually, Irish were not even considered fully 'white' by the British until more recently. They were another type of "(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)".

    Whiteness is a social construction of no benefit to someone who has taken the red pill.

    British, and Irish hardly even look different in the first place.

    Israel's population is diverse, that's why. It doesn't just include Ashkenazi Jews.

    PISA doesn't measure intelligence, although it might be related.

    Everybody has the right to preserve their heritage.

    There's no such thing as 'open borders'. You either have borders or you don't. If the people in a democracy have no say as to who comes into their community and who doesn't, then they are borderless and open to invasion. A political community must have borders to exist and defend its citizens.

    Peaceful migration is a good thing. The most enthusiastic migrants in modern history have been from Europe.

    In times of war, it is sometimes necessary to seal the borders of a country and put a temporary stop to immigration until war is over. But that would have a huge impact on commerce.

    So as long as people in Europe and the USA put up with their governments invading the Middle East, they will in turn be invaded by the Middle East.

    Stop the wars, stop the refugees.

    According to the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) yes it dose.

    In late 2008 the SPLC labeled anyone who didn't vote for Barack Obama a racist.

    In 2009 the SPLC labeled anyone who opposed Obama's ACA (Obamacare) to be a racist.

    The SPLC also labels anyone who believes in the rule of law to be a racist.

    The SPLC also labels anyone who believes in the sovereignty of the United States to be a racist-nationalist and a racist-xenophobe. (Liberals always like hyphenating everyone.)

    In 2016 the SPLC labeled anyone who attended a Trump rally and liked what he had to say were racist.

    In September of 2016 Hillary Clinton labeled 1/2 of all Trump supporters to be deplorables. The SPLC was quick to to call all deplorables, racist-deplorales.

    Why should Jews be worried about marrying non-Jews? As long as their mother is Jewish, so will their children be.

    Apparently anti-Irish racists could see the difference, before the Irish were absorbed into 'whiteness'.

    That 'recovery and healing' will never come if blacks continue to blame everyone else for all of their problems. At some point, they have to take responsibility for the life choices they make. There is much they can do to improve their own situation, but it would require work, and it's always easier to blame "whitey" or "white privilege" or any other handy target. It also does not help that there are so many people making excuses for the lack of progress black people make -- this only reinforces their deeply embedded victim mentality, imo. At this point, the biggest problems black people have are their own attitudes and beliefs.

    Sorry, but I simply can't accept that racism is a partisan issue instead of a human social issue. I am unaware of any anthropologist that accepts your perspective that racism is a result of political partisanship.

    As for racism and republicans, here's a few facts that seemingly contradict your contention.

    The Left allied media declares birthers racist and then leftists point out that on the whole GOPers question Obama's birth record. So that makes GOPers racist according to leftists.

    Well I declare any supporter of the BLM movement to be anti-White racists. Leftists generally support the BLM movement and therefore the average leftist is an anti-White racist. Enjoy.

    There are two kinds for racist. First there is the person that really is a racist like Obama and Sharpton, then there is everyone else that is called a racist by liberals because they dont agree with liberal lies. The second is meaningless.

    Yes, the second has power only because leftists through their control of media outlets control the definition of the term 'racist'; having essentially gotten it to mean any GOP voter.

    I think a racist is someone who hates others based on the amount of melanin in their skin. I think there are really very few people who still hold this view. The problem is the fanatical left has grown really emboldened and democrats are now vocally talking about "systemic racism." Racism has come to mean that you are racist if you are white and have an opinion that opposes the left.

    Timmy Kaine is even joining in on the white-bashing:

    The thinking here is lamentably shallow. The root cause of racism is the desire for self-aggrandizement through degrading others, of which racism is only one of innumerable manifestations.

    Good lord. The reason why the English settlers to America didn't like the Irish had nothing to do with "racism." Derrr.

    Are you serious? Black or white is a descriptive term. I didn't realize you were an SJW.
