Fair enough

The difference being that Columbus', and not only Columbus but nearly every explorer and conquistador, actions caused repercussions that are still being felt today, whereas the Mongol Empire was a literal holocaust but far enough in the past that we don't care anymore, it doesn't really have much of an effect on us anymore.

Actually, despite their massive violence, the Mongols were tolerant of most religions because their religion (Tengri Paganism) basically said other religions weren't a big deal.

Christians and Muslim religions specifically says other religions are wrong so they get their panties in a wad when other people don't believe the same thing as them.

Tengris on the other hand just don't give a fuck.

They killed millions of people but not because of their religion. Mostly because they wouldn't submit to the Khan's power. Didn't care if you were Confucius, Buddhist, , Muslim, or Christian though.

If you didn't submit you got the head whacked off.

They only killed who refuse to obey them and that was ok in their time. They fight real and strong armies, Columbus killed retards with stick and stones.

It's a good thing that wealth isn't just a steady supply and something that grows through trade. When you give me money for bread, we are both wealthier than we were before, that's why we engaged in the trade. Wealth isn't zero sum.

Leif Ericson is completely ignored for being the first european to discover and settle North America.

Who ended that video with 5 reasons the Mongol Horde sucked, including massacre and spreading the black plague.

The difference is Columbus didn't create an empire that had anything going for it based on modern morals. He was just a guy who nearly got himself and his crew killed only to land on a couple of islands full of technologically inferior natives who he then proceeded to enslave and abuse for his own private gain until more direct royal administrators came in and at least attempted something of an equitable if inevitably disastrous relationship with natives and colonists.

Genghis, for all his slaughter and spread of plagues, is credited with a state that at least attempted to be a state where economic and religious freedoms were protected and provided governance and law and order. It also helps that this reputation mostly circulates among people and regions that never actually suffered under the Mongols, so it's just an old story of some people far away that people can form opinions about without having to bring much emotion or personal politics into the debate.

Now, if Iran or China was still ruled by a Mongolian state which ethnically cleansed and replaced its population with Mongols, then celebrated Genghis Khan who, instead of being this empire builder was just a Mongolian entrepreneur, then sure, maybe you could compare the two.

but bread isn't used to trade so having bread doesn't make me wealthy

this is pretty much the source of every problem in the "third world", basic commodities can't be sold at a reasonable price because the west subsidises its own farmers

Then it is wealth, it has value. Wealth is objects that serves needs (desires). Money is wealth because it can be easily traded for other things that actually serve your desires.

>>1838476
wealth is valuable objects

value is an objective concept, ie it exists for people other than me

nobody except me wants my bread as i cannot trade it away

But you want your bread because you want to eat, therefore it is wealth because wealth is whatever serves a need/purpose.

Half the time it's all about pet peeves, personal dislikes, or simply the effect it had on the actual flow of history. Also if you think anyone is really talking about the Rwandan genocide in any real way you're fucked. 800 thousand dead in a 100 days is insane and yet it hardly rates a mention in the media next to shit like "hurr gitmo durr".

I'm sure the entire reason the MSM doesn't report on the Rwandan genocide is because they don't want the "oppressed" in other countries to start fighting back, despite how much they love reporting on it, and stoking the fires both in America with the BLM crap, during the "Arab Spring" and during other such events. Your math doesn't add up here.

It's far more likely them not caring is because their boy Slick Willy was president at the time and to report his failure to care or stop it would make him look bad. Or the fact that their beloved UN was on site/charged with stopping it and was completely and totally ineffectual so they can't draw attention to that either. Or how the "enlightened modern French" was busy shipping them weapons to kill each other with and that would make them look just as, if not more so, dirty as States which is totally not allowed

The MSM has/had plenty of motivation to not report the Rwandan genocide as much as they talk about Abu Ghraib, and none of that has to do with wanting to help keep people "oppressed".

Again, being white is not related to nationality nor race, and moreover absolutely not by HDI, wealth, culture, behaviour or quality of life
One is able to tell if someone is white by a picture alone, with no information about nationality
It so happens that if i gave you random picks of irish people (maybe cutting out gingers as to avoid bias) and told you it was brits, or germans, or danish, you'd fall for it

more obviously if you're not a proper white then you can be justifiably called not white
>Convenient that you disregard the rest and only reply, again, with meme arrows and a meme picture
because the rest of what you posted was incoherent, something about appearance determining race

just because you look white doesn't mean you're white

Nordic is such a stupid loose concept
Is it scandinavians? Does it include finland? Baltics? Germany? Scotland? Britain? Ireland? If Germany yes, then why not Austria (which is obviously not nordic at all, yet i challenge a white supremacist to say austrians are not white)
And on top of that, if to white supremacists white=nordic (which i just disproved), there would be no need to have both terms and both terms could be used interchangebly

Being white is literally only related to appearance. If you have caucasoid features and are not a sandnigger you are white. Literally
>>
>>1839409
>Being white is literally only related to appearance
that flies in the face of all racial theory

Convenient that you disregard the rest of what i posted
>>
>>1839416
I disregarded the first part because if you read the post i made and then your reply and apply basic reading comprehension you'd see we are agreeing on that part
Once again, white is a mainstream term to define people who look white
Racial theories talk, who would guess, about races, and white is not a race, it's a feature present in some groups of a race

well my definition of white is different

you may as well say people of any race, defined using racial theory, can be white if they appear to be white

you could say a black man is white if he looks white

>well my definition of white is different
Nobody cares

This is what normies do all the time when they meet white-looking Iranians & Arabs until these people tell them who they are.

That anon wasn't me (guy you've been responding to the past ~10 replies) but simply, no serious racial theory talks about "whites", thus the term is left to be a social construct whose definition relies on popular use or, if you will, what normies think white means

Columbus belonged to a civilized Christian society, and his crimes were so bad he shocked even the Spanish themselves.

The Mongol Khans were all dirty savages and nobody expected anything less of their brutality. If anything people were surprised at how they manage to conduct their empires reasonably well.
>>
>>1839369
Arabs white? no

Does the article say 4 groups of Caucasoids exist? Yes.

Mediterranean = Southern Europe
Alpine = Central, Eastern and Western Europe
Nordic = Northern Europe
Armenoid = The Caucasus mountains, Western Armenia and Anatolia and parts of Iran.

Do I personally consider all 4 of these groups White? Yes

Do I agree with anon that White is based solely on physical appearance? No
>>
>>1839509
"normies" don't think about race seriously so who cares
>>1839540
well good for you, but racial theory reached its apogee in the context of white supremacy which categorised only nordics as white

seriously, modern racial theory doesn't exist
>>
>>1839540
To be completely honest, I myself would only say (some) caucasoids are eligible to the definition of white, but when this came up while talking with my normie friends the reaction was "dude if it looks white it be white, if it doesn't its not. Like bro it's literally a colour like nigga just open your eyes lol" basically

White supremacism is a ridicolous and pseudo scientific branch of actual racial studies that are still very active to this day
>>
>>1839582
you only think it's ridiculous because it's what you've been indoctrinated to believe

white supremacism was the foundation for segregation, apartheid and the unequal treatment of italians and irish, not to mention the various fascist ideologies- it's by far the most relevant theory in terms of influence
>>
>>1839599
I didnt say it's irrelevant, it's been a very dangerous pseudo science. Pseudo, hence why ridicolous

it may be dangerous but it's hardly ridiculous if it's changed the world to such an extent

>well good for you, but racial theory reached its apogee in the context of white supremacy which categorised only nordics as white

Utter horse-shit. The apogee of racial theory in the context of White supremacy was under the Nazis and guess what?
They considered Mediterraneans to be white.

So fuck off with your leftist revisionism.
>>
>>1839656
i assume that the nazis considered them to be honorary aryans like the japs were

honorary aryans is a step down from aryans, no matter what you think and besides for the greater period of history after the nazis and slightly before them they were seen and ranked as inferior to nordics
>>
>>1839599
Unequal treatment of Italians and Irish is a meme that was rooted in religious differences not racial ones.

Here's a question for you.
If Irish and Italians were nor considered white why where they allowed to serve in white regiments?

We get to a point were "Caucasoid" may be more valuable than White in terms of substantive meaning.

After all, why not just be a Nordic supremacist and save yourself the trouble of figuring out who's "White" or not?

I'd say some of the best maps/research on the subject considers the whole Caucasoid branch White.
>>
>>1839676
>Unequal treatment of Italians and Irish is a meme that was rooted in religious differences not racial ones.
that's a lie

they weren't black

i don't think it's up for debate that members of the mediterranean race were treated worse than nordics

just look at the various insults used for them, wop, dago, etc.
>>
>>1839696
Well if they weren't white nor black then they would have been sorted into their own regiments.

The fact that they were allowed to serve alongside whites means they were considered white
>>
>>1839666
> i assume that the nazis considered them to be honorary aryans like the japs were

You assume wrong.
Mediterraneans were considered a sub-branch of the greater umbrella group called the Aryan race. There was nothing "honorary" about their status in the hierarchy or Nazi racial theory. Nordics may have been considered the pinnacle of the Aryan race in Nazi theory but that does mean the other subgroups of the Aryan race were viewed as unrelated outsiders of inferior blood.
>>
>>1839696
>people had insulting names for each other therefore they were viewed as an inferior race
Stop being silly.

Sure they were.

But that wasn't necessary correct as much as it was popular among the American masses around a particular time.

If we are going on a racial model of

White
Yellow
Brown
Orange
Black

I'd say White would include the whole Caucasoid grouping.

Another good map is the German map of language families around the world. Notice how southern Europe is included in the light blue "European Languages."
>>
>>1839710
>The fact that they were allowed to serve alongside whites means they were considered white
or it means they were allowed to serve alongside whites

the only reason this argument works is you're excluding all the other evidence that they were seen as nonwhite
>>1839713
well besides for the greater period of history after the nazis and slightly before them they were seen and ranked as inferior to nordics
>>1839736
they were also refused jobs and housing outside of certain neighbourhoods, crude racial propaganda was made about them
>>1839746
you can keep arguing this, but the fact remains that the most influential racial model, white supremacy, saw mediterraneans as less than nordics
>>
>>1839599
>white supremacism was the foundation for segregation, apartheid and the unequal treatment of italians and irish, not to mention the various fascist ideologies- it's by far the most relevant theory in terms of influence

I've been steering clear of this but you're retarded and your view of human nature and of history is so narrowminded it would be hilarious if it wasn't so sad. Segregation, apartheid, and ethnic disputes in general are both hugely widespread among all people's, races and societies under a hundred different names. You really think the only facist nations are white ones, operating under white supremacy? Or even that fascism specifically is the most vile system ever seen?

White supremacy as such is hardly a thing to begin with. If it was then the Nazis would not have been allied with a dozen Balkan and Mediterranean countries, as well as Japan, against England, France, Norway, Denmark, which are all pretty much the whitest countries ever. What you mean by "white supremacy" is a relatively small period of eugenics theory that had some influence on people, but was far less relevant than other social, economic and personal motivations that people had/have over a much longer period of time. Blacks were seen as less because they were slaves, but they weren't slaves because they were black. There were black slave owners in the US, and the origin of the word slave is Slav, IE white Europeans because they were so frequently enslaved and attacked by other societies.

i am focusing entirely on nordics and mediterraneans being different races genius, it's called making a point

obviously i could vomit out massive walls of text that have little to do with the point i'm trying to make but that would be retarded
