death to the concept of whiteness

[-] miz@hexbear.net 10 points 2 days ago

Whiteness is also an imaginary concept and a figment of the racist imagination, of course, but that doesn’t make it any less real, or deadly; whiteness is a thing because people insist that it is, and use force and violence to make it so. Whiteness is a thing because white supremacists needed a name for their violent subjugation of others, and so they gave it one. In this way, whiteness is a uniquely virulent and pathological form of social identity. It cannot survive its loss of supremacy; it cannot abide competition or mixture or “impurity.” Created by racial slavery and given a second wind by European imperialism, whiteness depends on the violent subordination of all others. Celebrate your Irish heritage if you must, or your Pennsylvania Dutch grandparents; that has nothing to do with the whiteness that names me, now, but which (partially) excluded my Irish and German ancestors when they came to this nation. Irish and Pennsylvania Dutch can and will survive incorporation into a multi-ethnic nation, but it is the sine qua non of whiteness that it cannot and will not. Inextricable from racial subordination, whiteness has no other content at all: whiteness is what’s left in the melting pot after everything else has been burned away. Without that xenophobic fire, it has no meaning, no substance, no fundamental.

This is why “white genocide” actually does have a meaning beyond “racial integration.” If you take away a white person’s ability to live as the undisputed master of the universe—to take his own experience as normal and privileged, and to presume all others to be debased copies of his own primary existence—then you take away his whiteness.

For some, what happened is a sign of online nationalism – manifesting in recent years as rising anti-foreigner rhetoric – spilling over into the real world.

for some made-it-the-fuck-up

But this is the third high-profile attack on foreigners in recent months, all of which China has described as “isolated incidents”.

Compared to what? Do you know how big and populous China is or care to enlighten your readers in this context you ass-shit propagandists? How many school shootings have happened this year in the US? Or your own pogroms where your gammons tried to burn down migrant and refugee centers? Death to anglo-burn empire of lies

“State-endorsed patriotism” and Beijing’s constant warnings about foreign influence has contributed to the “intense nationalism” we see today, says Rose Luqiu, an associate professor at Hong Kong Baptist University’s communication school. What has aggravated it, she says, is the legal risk of being deemed unpatriotic.

literally nobody. Hong Kong Baptist communications professor? A Hong Kong christian liberal arts school financed by colonial US church missionaries has a teacher of a media class to give us a rundown on mainland Chinese politics and sociology? Who gives a shit what this random lady says? How is this as valued source for the public broadcasting of the UK as they can get?

This article is ass. BBC is such ass. This isn't even good propaganda, this is the laziest garbage.
