The Irish have been abused and degrqded by the British for Centuries. Still are, not nearly like they used to be, but its still there.
China. You know they officially call white people a racist slur right?
Middle East: Not as bad as Middle eastern women or anyone from southeast Asia. Still racist.
South Africa: yup, cant say they didnt deserve it, but its still racism, also not inevitable.
I know very well. I’m Irish. Pretty sure still have our own “and the Irish” section in British airports as a holdover from the troubles. The point I’m making is that it had nothing to do with being white and I haven’t met any British people trying to abuse or degrade me for being Irish. My sister lives there and is married to an English man so I visit frequently.
China: I didn’t experience any overt racism there because of the colour of my skin. We have derogatory words for basically everyone in English but it doesn’t mean people use them. Hell, we call the British “Tans” if we’re feeling belligerent towards them. “Paddy” has lost all meaning as a slur against the Irish.
Middle east: Sure. There I did experience it but it was incredibly mild and as I said I was very glad I wasn’t brown.
Anyway, my main point was this:
And I feel that it stands and yes there are exceptions but the historical weight of racism hasn’t fallen on white people because of the colour of their skin.
