Did I just stumble into stormfront today? Guess my mind is just wandering a bit. In all seriousness, I've honestly never cared. Unlike in the US, most people could care less about your race. I never once had anyone tell me I'm white or brown or something else. Yes, I have a "foreign" name, but I never ran into problems because of it. Also just in case you're wondering; white isn't a race. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caucasian_race

White people are a race the same way black people are a race.

 

They're not really races just classifications. I think it just makes it simpler for people. It's better classification for people in a biological sense aswell, Slavics, Whites and Arabs are all 'Caucasian Race' but that doesn't really help when outlining the differences for classification purposes.

Except blacks are a race, because they have differences between the rest.  You can't put people of the middle east and north africa into a different race than europeans, because they're genetically very similar. Their facial features and skull shapes are more comparitive too Europeans than they're too Asians or Blacks. Skin colour also is an issue, because many Europeans have different skin colours. Some can be as light as paper, while some can be quite dark. Similar thing with the middle east, only a bit darker on average.  But this is becoming an argument on biology, so I can assume we're OT now. 



Made a bet with LipeJJ and HylianYoshi that the XB1 will reach 30 million before Wii U reaches 15 million. Loser has to get avatar picked by winner for 6 months (or if I lose, either 6 months avatar control for both Lipe and Hylian, or my patrick avatar comes back forever).
