@thebeardedbogan@mtracey bro you aren't "anti-elite" or "pro-common sense". You accept the mainstream sex paranoia that the biggest mouths in media and politics fearmonger about.
@AGroyper42@jacob_kallen2@RichardHanania There are Afrikaners with pretty visible bantu or Khoi-san admix who are in all-white enclaves in South Africa. The point is if you are predominantly one thing over another, that expresses in your physical features and behavior, the basis for all the quibbling over crime stats.
@AGroyper42@jacob_kallen2@RichardHanania then your standard is weak and would make the other categories of people make even less sense. And if the whole basis of scrutinizing categories in crime stats is that diff groups behave differently on avg, a Hispanic guy who is 85/15 Euro/Amer is phenotypically white.
@Shiftant Yes MENA are a small percentage, and the number of mestizos lumped in with white is also overstated. Also if there are some whites or close-to-white included, that's not an issue specific to the "white" category. Other groups have subgroups lumped together all the damn time.
@jacob_kallen2@RichardHanania This is such cope and people need to stop invoking it. Most people labelled white are indeed of European descent directly or indirectly.
@thebeardedbogan@mtracey They don't have to necessarily, but it is extremely easy to exploit relatively mundane situations in people's pasts for political gain. And it's sick how often it's occurring today without the slightest scrutiny.
@jvacomedy@Bill_LessThan3@mtracey Katie Johnson story was a hoax. The feminist website Jezebel did a fair job debunking that nonsense. But that was 10 years ago when people still had a semblance of sanity and courage and were willing to debunk wild sexual assault claims.
