So it’s not just genetics. Obviously. Because someone could be 7/8ths genetically ‘white’, and they wouldn’t be seen as any better by the racists than someone who was 1/8th genetically ‘white.’

Racism, no matter how hard we try, does not operate by rules that can be linked back to scientific understanding of human variance in any sensible way. That’s because racism is a social phenomenon.

Like pornography, most of us know it when we see it.

For those who are unclear, there’s this. This guy will tell you if shit is racist. He’s very good.

Also, his readers have helpfully created a special word for white people that only they are allowed to say. Everyone else has to say “the Y-word”. This was developed to comfort the number of people whose lives were simply being ruined, to judge by their questions, because they weren’t allowed to say the N-word aloud.
