       I've been seeing this meme recently.
       People are noticing (and making fun-off) of the Psychological
       colonized.
       But instead of pointing the the real problem (Eurocentrism),
       Gentiles are using this as yet another excuse to mock
       "non-whites".
       FFS! We truly live an twisted world.

       As we all know, it has nothing to do with "foreignness".
       Commenters are also aware of this:

       Except it doesn't work when the British man is "black", despite

       More precisely, in "White" Saviour fiction written by

       portrayed as pressuring their offspring to marry the same
       ethnicity, while the "non-white" offspring  are portrayed as

       This is a very good point. Yet your failure to detect the
       Western-style misogyny ends up reinforcing your prejudice that
       "white" men are less misogynistic. As for who is actually more
       misogynistic, I stand by my theory that whoever is biologically
       higher in sexual dimorphism will tend to be worse:

       are viewed in Japan? And even a "white" who can't speak Japanese
       will still be average? In other words, a "white" who can't speak
       Japanese will be viewed as roughly equal to a local who can
       speak Japanese? What does this say about how "whites" are viewed
       in Japan?

       Wait, so you are giving "whites" advice on how to become even

       White supremacy, with a tan
       Cutting taxes for the rich helps the poor. There is no such
       thing as a Republican or a Democratic judge. Climate change is a
       hoax.
       Some political myths refuse to die despite all evidence the
       contrary. Here’s another:
       When White people are no longer a majority, racism will fade and
       the US “will never be a White country again.”
       This myth was reinforced recently when the US Census’ 2020
       report revealed that people who identify as White alone declined
       for the first time since the Census began in 1790. The majority
       of Americans under 18 are now people of color, and people who
       identity as multiracial increased by 276% over the last decade.
       New census figures show America is more diverse and multiracial
       than ever
       These Census figures seemed to validate a common assumption: The
       US is barreling toward becoming a rainbow nation around 2045,
       when White people are projected to become a minority.
       That year has been depicted as “a countdown to the White
       apocalypse,” and “dreadful” news for White supremacists.” Two
       commentators even predicted the US “White majority will soon
       disappear forever.” It’s now taken as a given that the “Browning
       of America” will lead to the erosion of White supremacy.
       I used to believe those predictions. Now I have a different
       conclusion:
       Don’t ever underestimate White supremacy’s ability to adapt.
       The assumption that more racial diversity equals more racial
       equality is a dangerous myth. Racial diversity can function as a
       cloaking device, concealing the most powerful forms of White
       supremacy while giving the appearance of racial progress.
       Racism will likely be just as  entrenched in a browner America
       as it is now. It will still be White supremacy, with a tan.
