Fred: Like I said, modern western dynamics go back to the three race theory, and there has been a ton of carry-over into other parts of the world thanks to colonialism and globalization. This, however, is just one of many forms of ethnic-based prejudice that have taken place throughout the history of mankind, much of which has influenced cultural dynamics in other regions independent of white influence. People have been inventing categories for humans and using them as an excuse to treat others like shit from the moment we gained sapience. When you single out the social dynamics we refer to as "racism" in the west and try to set them into their own special category, as if it's the primary and most harmful prejudice the world over, despite all of these issues stemming from the same source -- the human propensity for prejudice -- it downplays the significance of other cultures' histories, social dynamics, and the hardships those people have faced.
It's Eurocentric as fuck, and kinda ends up becoming some kind of weird white guilt version of "mighty whitey".
