That doesn't matter. Discrimination is still discrimination, understandable or not. Someone murders the murderer of their child, understandable yes, but still murder. You said it doesn't exist.
I'm not saying it doesn't exist, I'm simply asking if you can see the viewpoint of others and why they act the way they do. Don't put words in my mouth.

The only white discrimination or horrible acts done here in the United States would be towards Irish men and women during the days of indentured servitude. But again, that's quite literally the only example I think of, and even then that was done by other white people.

But you're missing the context of that statement, considering I was previously talking about large happenings of such things happening to different groups. Small cases do exist, but the Irish are the only ones in the United States that can say they suffered similar to minority groups such as African Americans or Puerto Ricans or virtually any other minority.

Unless my history is wrong and there were other large scale cases. Ones that I can talk to a grandparent to and they can recall an ancestor that had to suffer from it.

Considering your post came after two members discussing whether racism against white people existed or not, you can understand why I thought you were adding to that, especially the 'this racist event happened to white people, oh wait no it didn't' tone which seemed to be aimed at the whole 'does it exist or not?' debate.

I do apologize for that, should of made it more clear. My intent was not to say racism against white people doesn't exist, it was more to say that on a large scale it is INCREDIBLY rare in the West. Someone brought up whites living in areas in which they are the minority and are actively persecuted against or are even targeted in a genocidal-esque spree, it would make sense for them in that region to have a white pride day or celebration. I'm somewhat ignorant to matters outside of the United States however, and what I've been saying applies almost exclusively to the United States afaik. So keep that in mind, if I do get involved in any sort of international discussion regarding white pride.

Better question is, why have pride in your race in the first place?
It's something to do?
Something silly to do though.

The USA has the second largest population of Armenians outside of Armenia, fyi. A massacre that took place in the last 100 years and even now, there are problems with it being recognized as a genocide.

In Britain, apparently the Poles get s*** too, plenty of hate crimes if this article is accurate

I'm not sure of how precisely Poles are treated in the USA now, but they were discriminated against plenty in the last century as well.

The "poles"? Is that seriously what you call them?

Yes. I don't believe it's a slur, but if it is, do correct me

I may not deserve to live, but I will protect those in my reach with my reverse blade!

There is nothing wrong with having pride because you're white. Be thankful for what your race/ethnicity has overcome and learn from their mistakes as well.

It's important to note that through history who was considered 'white' changes despite actual color of people.
