This is ahistorical because - not all cultures are chauvinistic towards people outside of their communities - this tendency of ethnic affiliation when it centers "whiteness" results in ostracization of people deemed to be the outgroup and the erection of caste systems. See: the Transatlantic Slave Trade of America and its ongoing consequences - the only purpose that race serves is to confiscate resources, period. Outside of being a social construct, race is not real As they say on these relays, DYOR

it's ridiculous to assert that ethnic affiliation isn't the default state. spend an afternoon walking around Manhattan, America has more different cultures living in it than anywhere and they *segregate themselves by preference.* this happens all over the world. and its absurd to think that ethnic affiliation is only violent when it "centers on whiteness." "because slavery" lol. everybody throughout history had slaves. slavery doesn't make *white ethnic affiliation violent because white people did it also. ethnic affiliation is normal. good or bad, thats how people are. you can argue that we should try to create some kind of homogeneous identity where ethnicity and culture doesn't matter. but then shouldn't melanistic people also avoid ethnic affiliation? that sounds like an unlikely and terribly boring timeline.
1) pretty much every tribe is, some more than others, you pretty much always prefer your own, it's natural and trivially explainable by evolutionary psychology. 2) slavery was pretty much universal + the British empire (white people) were the first to start to put an end to it + more white people were made slaves and sold in Africa than black people were ever sent to America (Barbary slave trade) + it was largely black people selling other black people into slavery to the Americas + slavery today is largely found in African and Middle Eastern countries = you have no idea what you're talking about. 3) that is so retarded I don't know where to begin. dogs have races, horses have races, cats have races, chimps have races, gorillas have races, orangutans have races, guenons have races, wolves have races, bears have races .... .... .... most mammals have races, but according to you, humans don't, even though it takes a retard to not be able to recognize a Northern European from an Asian from a Native American from an African from an Arab from a Kiwi - you're trying to eliminate discrimination by eliminating the category, retarded is just about the only word I can use to describe that sleight of hand
lololol What sleight of hand? Race as a social construct with zero biological basis is a widely documented phenomenon. Dogs cannot declare themselves as a race nor do they demonstrate any concept thereof. I don't deal in lies and I didn't make the rules, but stay triggered and call history a 'retarded sleight of hand' ๐Ÿ˜‚ lol
