As an ashkenazi jew, fuckin lollin at thinking I face the same type of racism as black people.

Modern racism between "white" and "black" was invented in european colonies specifically because the horrific chattel slavery was unjustifiable under the old system, and early on, indigenous americans, enslaved africans, and poor european settlers would often find common cause. The racial caste system was invented after the african slave trade became the most profitable way to work colonial plantations and mines. There were multiple fun variants, like anglos using the one-drop rule where spanish and french colonies had a whole fuckin chart, with full-blooded european-born at the top, full european blood but born overseas next, then of course, at the bottom, two african parents and born in Africa. Every blood percentage combo of indigenous, euro, and african was labelled and ranked. Some colonies even made the future CSA look blessed. In Haiti, Cuba, and let us not forget, the colonies run by "abolitionist" Britain like Barbados and Jamaica, most slaves died within five years of being transported. The population was only sustained by ongoing slaver raids.

Haiti gets props for turning the racial caste system against its enforcers. For one hundred years, it was a capital crime to set foot in Haiti while white, with poles considered honorarily black. Because Napoléon sent a ton of poles who had joined him to fight for their own freedom against Prussia, Russia, and Austria to instead reconquer and re-enslave an island halfway around the world, and decided "gently caress this" and joined the haitian side.

yea big same, nobody thinks literal bigotry didn't exist before dastardly england hosed it up, but there's a massive difference between 'hey those guys speak a funny language and have different religious customs than us, gently caress those guys am I right?' and 'we are inherently superior to this entire landmass, they're not even loving humans compared to us, if you for five seconds think that maybe you, a poor english textile worker have a level of solidarity with an indian guy in the same position you're an idiot because obviously you're better because you're white.' Obviously bigotry has always existed (I forgot where I heard it but some guy jokingly described human history as a cave man looking at a different cave man and going 'hey...that's not me, gently caress him!!!!') but the modern concept of race was near entirely born from colonization and slavery.

My post was bad and I am sorry. How I read it was that it suddenly happened via the British Empire in relatively modern history. There are many historical examples of peoples/tribes/nation-states/empires using race, or their precursors or markers of a certain people (e.g. a Semite or a Gentile, et al) as justification for hatred or demonization and fear mongering.

I do believe the British perhaps weaponized it best, but I think you are taking a Western centric view of it and ignoring, say, all of East and Mid Asian peoples since time immemorial.

Which is why I said it might as well be the original sin.

For the record, we CAN and SHOULD overcome it. Not accept it as a trait of the human condition.

I think in South Afria they had three colour catergories, "black", "white" and "coloured" and to determined which the person belonged to they'd do tick box tests like run a pencil through their hair.

Fun fact about this. My dad is Indian, from Bengalaru. My mum is English, from Birmingham. They both immigrated to Aus. met, married and had me and my brother.

And although both my brother and I are pale skinned, (interesting racism aside. The first thing the Indian side of my family and friends asked when both my brother and I were born was not "Is he healthy?" but "Is he fair?" as in fair skinned. Lucky we are, so are acceptable in their eyes. You do not want to get into how entrenched skin colour/caste racism is in Indian society.), it always was funny to me that under the old apartheid laws in SA we would both have to sit at the back of the bus.

Because you are almost right about the Racial categories. As I understand it, there was White, Black, Indian, and Coloured. Where Coloured was a catch all that just meant "all the non whites we cant be arsed to categorize." Which included mixed-race people. Which describes me and my brother.

Of course it would never come to that, as we are fair skinned, so obviously better than you filthy darkies, and thus can sit and drink from whatever water fountain we drat well like. But it goes to show how absurd quantifying racial discrimination into categories and levels of discrimination can get.
