The same reason that appropriation doesn't apply to all the cultures who are living a white lifestyle instead of the way their relatives lived a few hundred years ago. Now THAT is cultural appropriation.

Racists are always looking for a new term for their condition in order to apply their intolerance to others.

Let me add, whiteness is also associated with colonialism/imperialism, and the vast majority of the world's resources are in countries that are not white, who were exploited by white people for hundreds of years.

There is currently a worldwide rebellion against 'The West' being fomented by China, Russia, and the Saudis. If we replace our population and all of our government officials with non-whites then we are no longer the west.

Yeah,..it doesn't make sense. It just seems like such a simple short-sighted idea.
Get rid of the "West', the people that were responsible for all this technology and innovation.

So they can do what? What's stopping them , with all those resources, from doing their own thing already?
And then what? Go down a list of who is next on the totem pole and try to eradicate them too? lol

There is nothing 'progressive' about that plan. There will always be some Animal Farm type group that turns into a new version of the 'bad white man'. Except even more people will be brought down to just above poverty, but hey, the bottom will be risen to just below poverty.

Why wouldn't they take over the United States? Also, the people who actually run this country aren't white.

In the NFL, it applies to the positions of head coach, general manager & offensive coordinator.

The National Football League announced a new rule on Monday that requires all 32 teams to hire an offensive coach who is "a female or a member of an ethnic or racial minority" for the 2022 season.

Equity is perhaps among the most dangerous contemporary terms and policy goals with respect to the continuity of Western civilization as we know it.

Before anything, please read this passage from Lysander Spooner and think about the current Ukraine/Russia War.

https://praxeology.net/LS-NT-6.htm

"Among savages, mere physical strength, on the part of one man, may enable him to rob, enslave, or kill another man. Among barbarians, mere physical strength, on the part of a body of men, disciplined, and acting in concert, though with very little money or other wealth, may, under some circumstances, enable them to rob, enslave, or kill another body of men, as numerous, or perhaps even more numerous, than themselves. And among both savages and barbarians, mere want may sometimes compel one man to sell himself as a slave to another. But with (so-called) civilized peoples, among whom knowledge, wealth, and the means of acting in concert, have become diffused; and who have invented such weapons and other means of defense as to render mere physical strength of less importance; and by whom soldiers in any requisite number, and other instrumentalities of war in any requisite amount, can always be had for money, the question of war, and consequently the question of power, is little else than a mere question of money. As a necessary consequence, those who stand ready to furnish this money, are the real rulers. It is so in Europe, and it is so in this country."


1) For almost all of human history, China was far richer and more advanced than Europe. The video below shows a map of the world by population over the last 2,000 years. Population-density has historically been the most reliable measurement of how advanced a civilization was. Although the fraction of arable land is also a major factor.

As you can see, America and Africa were desolate ****holes prior to European colonialism. But India and China were relatively advanced. So what happened?

https://www.visualcapitalist.com/200...ory-one-chart/

The simplest answer is, guns. And Europeans weren't even the ones who invented the gunpowder. But because of coal and iron deposits, Europeans were able to mass produce guns and cannons, placing them on ships which they used to dominate international trade and colonize the world. Enslaving and genociding natives in Asia and the Americas for control of spices, sugar, tobacco, among other things.

The Europeans used divide and rule tactics in India and China to start Civil Wars that weakened them. Then forced them to accept unfavorable trade deals that dismantled their industries and siphoned off their wealth. In the case of China, even forcing them to buy drugs(opium). China was then carved up into spheres of influence which caused the Boxer Rebellion, where eight nations allied to crush the Chinese rebellion against the imperialists.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boxer_Rebellion

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Century_of_humiliation

This "Century of Humiliation" continued until Mao's Communist Revolution. This formed a "strong state" which could defend itself and keep out western influence. China wants revenge for what Europe did to it. And it has been flooding the West with drugs(fentanyl) as payback for the Opium Wars. The Chinese are not stupid. They, like the Japanese and Koreans, are more intelligent than Europeans. The only thing that prevented Japan from surpassing America is its size. It has 130 million people in a country the size of Montana, full of mountains, with almost no natural resources. China has 10x the population of Japan, and a much larger country with far more natural resources.

If you think European domination was the result of some sort of superior intellectual ability on the part of Europeans, you're delusional. America rules the world and this country is full of degenerate retards who hate each other.

China will surpass the West if we don't starve it and destroy it. And the only way to do that is to create a network of vassals to encircle China. If you look at a map, we have alliances with Japan, Korea, Taiwan, the Philippines, and Vietnam against China. The entire Chinese coast is surrounded, forcing it has to travel through hostile waters to go anywhere. Which prevents China from challenging US Naval Supremacy. And we can easily track all movements of Chinese ships, including submarines.

That's one of the reasons Taiwan is so important to China, and the Paracel and Spratly Islands. It's also why China is desperately trying to find allies in the Pacific, and why the Chinese Naval vessel that went to Sri Lanka was such a huge deal.

2) The United States does not want to build up the third-world to became a rival of the United States. We want to keep the third-world, third-world, and dependent on the United States. We want to keep other countries weak and divided. Which is why we support separatists, religious fundamentalists, Nazis, and other groups to destabilize them, so that we can install pro-American governments that need US weapons/money to remain in power. That way we can control them.

"To put it in a terminology that harkens back to the more brutal age of ancient empires, the three grand imperatives of imperial geostrategy are to prevent collusion and maintain security dependence among the vassals, to keep tributaries pliant and protected, and to keep the barbarians from coming together." - Zbigniew Brzezinski

The United States would not be a superpower if it didn't conquer this continent from the natives and consolidate it into a vast empire. Not only did we steal land from the natives, but both the Mexican-American War and the Spanish-American War were essentially wars of conquest. Alexander Hamilton even wanted to take Louisiana before Napoleon offered to sell it to us since he was about to lose it anyway.


3) The United States is trying to maintain its global empire. Currently, most of the world is realigning against us. Russia, China, Saudi Arabia, India, Brazil, and South Africa, alongside Iran, Syria, and Venezuela, are trying to push the rest of the "global south" into an alliance against the West(IE the colonizers). The United States and Europe are desperately trying to maintain their influence in Latin-America, Africa, and the Middle-East. Which is why they are desperately trying to shed any connection with their colonial past, and bringing in large numbers of Africans, Asians, and Hispanics into their countries and placing them into positions of power(plus cheap labor), in the hopes it will anchor those countries into the Western alliance.

Whiteness has ceased to serve any beneficial function and has actually become a liability. The white population needs to be reduced and replaced if the West has any chance of remaining dominant.

Equity implies there is someone to determine and distribute equity.

In this case it is the corrupt government who will decide to replace dreams, hope and hard work of individuals.

the vagaries of politics does not create a stable platform to rule over equity across administrations. To ensure consistent equity, the government must be stabilized with lifetime despotic rulers.
