This was always one of the most confusing contradictions in the leftist worldview. Has anyone tried telling a lib that we can't be racist because race doesn't exist?
You have racial checkboxes for everything in lib world, but if race is just a fictive social construct then anyone should be able to check any of the boxes, right?
The rebuttal would most likely be "you have such a poor grasp on the concept that it sickens my delicate vegan stomach" but I feel like there should have been millions of people that objected to this. It's such a nonsensical pair of ideas.
I was with some relatives once and my in-law started saying how White people aren't really a race because White people were racist against each other. He said in colonial America they considered Irish and Italians to be niggers and therefore not White.
I didn't want to get in a heated argument since I was with family, but I said, "Why do we use the term people-of-color then? We consider that a politically correct term, even though it's inherently exclusive. It's only defined by the exclusion of White people from that group."
The group just got quiet and nobody replied for a while until the subject changed.
Yeah, figures. The "moody silence" was the favorite play the last few times I seriously engaged libs on something. These people are brats, and they've been running our civilization for decades.
Simple rebutal : Legally, the Irish were considered White otherwise they wouldn't have been allowed pre 1965 immigration reform.
That there were cultural / ethnic conflict between different White ethnicities dosen't negate the fact that Europeans / Whites form a racial group ( with subgroups ).
