    There’s nothing wrong with being white

    But stuff like “white pride” is unequivocally racist, and this stuff is like a gateway/dogwhistle to that.

    You can say you have American pride, or French pride, or Ukrainian pride, and all of those point to specific cultural achievements or things. “White pride” doesn’t really, it has a long history of thinking that whites are better than other races.

      This is a really well-put description. Having pride in the color of your skin is fucking stupid and applies to everyone.

      Pride is for achievements.

      Skin color is not something anyone achieved (and no, paying for aesthetics is not an achievement either).
