Murican racialism is super dumb in this context. "White" doesn't mean literally white complexion and Jews along with Slavs, the Irish and southern Meds/North Africans have never been included in the "white race" colonialism project, they were all explicitly "inferior populations" to the point of extermination.

The entire region is full of both "white" and "brown" people in the same families so this Murican simplistic af idea that races are real and that they correspond to skin tone and they're all neatly divided geographically is scifi.

This is about western backed colonizers versus displaced native populations, not "races".
