>>115515906>What the fuck is 'the absence of whiteness'?Because as you said, paleness and light skin are universally enjoyed. To me, that's all white is. Blacks are called blacks because of their skin tone.
A dark skinned Jamaican is called black
A dark skinned African is called black
If you are half black and have dark skin, you are called black
A dark skinned German is called black
A light skinned Russian is white
A light skinned French man is white
A light skinned american is white
These "racial" terms were created to distinguish skin color, not nationality and over the years whites have tried to split themselves up and isolate themselves from people that still look like them, yet will call anyone with a different skin tone of their own by it. Black, brown, yellow. That's what I mean by whiteness.
>You're way too caught up on race when you should be focused on the content and quality of media.Why do you claim that I dont? In my original post I said when I do see a black character I think, "oh that's person is like me" you're so quick to assume that I have a hostile view on the matter that you're putting words in my mouth so you can hold an argument. The rest of your argument is also putting more words in my mouth. I have not said any of these things and only stated that there is a difference in black culture and it's nice to see. Please watch your blood pressure.
