       Genuine pride or self respect is felt without the need to
       compare oneself with whiteness, feeling good about oneself based
       on ones proximity to whiteness is not pride but egotistic
       identitarianism. Non-"whites" who bully other non-"whites" to
       gain favor with "whites" should be exterminated.

       This is what prevents folkism.

       Western civilization has to be the most anti-"black"
       civilization, probably because 'blacks" in general have a good
       sense of wisdom of the body whereas "whites" in general lack
       this, so they do racist projection on those who have what they
       lack.

       Fat white male, scraggly "viking" beard, fashions himself an
       expert on fighting. It's hard not to jump to conclusions about
       him.
       It's white guys that act this way because they still have a
       certain racist worldview, that blacks are more physical, dumber
       and masculine while Asians are more intellectual, smarter and
       feminine, but whites think they're perfect, like Goldilocks'
       "just right."
       So when a black man praises an Asian man about how he fights, it
       challenges the racist man's worldview. The white man is
       comfortable with Tyson as a great fighter because Tyson is
       black. But if Tyson praises an Asian man as a fighter, the white
       man gets cognitive dissonance because he's ok with Asians being
       smarter, but not with the idea of Asians being more physical.
       This works in the opposite way too. You can imagine an Asian
       STEM professor giving a better grade to a black student than a
       white student -- the same cognitive dissonance would occur.
       But sure, let the white guys live with their illusions. It's how
       we get video after video like these:

       Another fight where the white man gets into a fight over a car
       and needs one of his fellow clowns to step in (and also takes a
       cheap shot)
  HTML https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7q1mWViGrE&ab_channel=NextSharkMag
       And yet another white man near a car, thinking because he's
       bigger he can bully (this time with his whiny AF sidekick) and
       getting served some asphalt.

       The white media keeps painting Asian guys as pushovers, and
       believing white guys keep getting their **** rocked.

       @rp I’m glad that video was posted, because there’s a lot of
       “China and Japan are the most racist countries of all time! They
       all hate black people!” rhetoric going around online for the
       past few years. Mostly from white rightists, who themselves tend
       to be openly racist, so they obviously don’t care and are just
       concern trolling. I’m sure that there’s SOME layer of truth
       since Eurocentrism is a problem in East “Asia”, and those
       countries aren’t ethnically diverse so there hasn’t been any
       reason for leftist movements to arise that challenge ethnic bias
       and normalize its opposite. But these kinds of videos shut down
       the narrative about China and Japan promoted by rightists. As of
       now, with non-white immigrants being a small minority in these
       places, a lot of them seem to be happy and doing well for
       themselves. That could change if people of foreign descent ever
       become a more sizable chunk of the population though.
       Recently, I’ve also found the channel of a man originally from
       Ghana, who labels himself as King Kwesi on YouTube. He now lives
       in China, and his opinions of living in China and interacting
       with Chinese people, seem to be positive overall as well. It
       really does not appear to be as straightforward as rightists are
       trying to claim. The way that rightists tend to talk about
       places like China and Japan in relation to non-whites, is
       equivalent to an abuser saying “Nobody will ever treat you as
       well as I do!” to their victim

       "non-white immigrants being a small minority in these places, a
       lot of them seem to be happy and doing well for themselves."
       "interacting with Chinese people, seem to be positive overall as
       well"
       This could be attributed to high baseline hospitality of the
       host society rather than absence of bias. It remains the case
       that "white" (including Jewish) immigrants are even happier and
       doing even better for themselves, and their interactions are
       even more positive!
