Make sure to keep making it about race, really helps your cause. It's a class war.

Unfortunately the colonial era has made it such that race and class are inextricably tied for the forseeable future.

White supremacist ideology is what got us here. Ignoring race is not going to get us out.

Its not a fluke that Nazis are all white. Racial supremacist ideologies tend to be held by people of that race.

I see your point, but.... Uhhh .. read the room?

I don't think making the focus on the fact that they're all white, is helping.

Then being white is more of a statement of fact and while it's not relevant to the main point, bringing focus to that as if its the problem with this statement, detracts from the message being delivered.

As a white dude, I'm okay with the statement as it has been said. Whitey has been responsible for a lot of fucked up shit in the world.
