    Imagine actually believing this.

    I don’t have to; I know from personal experience what it’s like to be right and correct. I recommend you abandon you current beliefs and try not being wrong yourself.

      Maybe one day you’ll wake up and realize that you don’t know everything and are not always “right and correct.” One day maybe you’ll realize that others have lived experiences that are different than yours, but maybe not and you’ll just float through life thinking your experience and your views are The Truth.

        Possible, but irrelevant to this situation wherein I am right, cool, and correct.

      Do you know where the term “slave” comes from?

        You aren’t making the point you think you’re making, and further from having seen your post history I know you aren’t arguing in good faith.

          Are the slavic people not white? What point do you think I’m making?

            Did the people oppressing Slavs consider them white and were they oppressed for being white?

            Slavic slaves in the Roman empire predate the social construct of whiteness. Implying they were oppressed because they were white is one of the stupider things I’ve read on the Internet today.

              Okay, modern day. Look at the DEI initiatives. Literally just systemic racism against white people (and Asian people, but thats not what this argument is about), thats why they keep getting slapped down in court, and now having laws directly passed against even teaching them because they are so racist.

                Dei is not remotely racist unless you believe the idiotic shit from fox News and newsmax

                  Treating people differently based on the color of their skin is textbook racism

                    Aww, you were on a roll.

                    You had “DEI”, “reverse racism”… a couple more punches and you could have got “shithead bingo”. I understand it comes with free breadsticks.
