It's called Colorism and it's very common.

White people don't understand that their ancestors literally didn't see our ancestors as human. The question of whether the negro could even feel pain as acutely as the civilized races was a matter of debate well into the 20th century. The more similar we look to you the easier it is for our features to resolve as human faces in your eyes, so you stop thinking of us as mindless beasts.

Do any of you have a flicker of awareness at how gross it is to colonize a thread about race issues for this bullshit? Have your slapfight in the libertarian thread or the Freep thread or make an actual new thread. You completely killed one of the very few conversations that's ever happened in D&D that isn't about white people and you're assholes for it.
