Jesus, if you (or Greta) ever posted an intelligent argument I would double check Revelations to make sure it was not a sign of the second coming.
It's just unfortunate JLF can't see intelligence staring in his face.

White supremacy is a stupid philosophy because there is no scientific, biblical or any proof whatsoever that whites are any better than any other race, and in point of fact, fair skinned people are actually more susceptible to certain cancers than others.
The interesting thing. All races started out equal. How did it happen that more white countries got their shit together faster than others? I don't really like the word "supremacy", but some race are better than other races in their own little gifts.
Like Africans are ALWAYS gonna dominate running events. ALWAYS. It's in their DNA. I read about white folks growing up with them, eating their diet, training like they train, and like just cannot come anywhere close to their incredible physical ability for running speed.
And Chinese Kids are always gonna have freakish perfect scores in school, because their parents slave drive them that their only purpose in life as a child is to score a perfect score for every test, and every exam. That one is seriously nuture. I believe any race would perform the same with the same crazy parents. But the drive to do something like this seem to be very predominantly Chinese. Just came naturally to us.
If ya notice Spelling Bee in the US. The South Indians ALWAYS win spelling. Despite English not being their first language. In Singapore we always believe South Indians are naturally gifted in languages. Like it's not uncommon especially for the older generation of uneducated Indians, despite lack of education to speak perfect variety of Chinese languages, from just listening to others talk. Just talented. No other race can do it.
White folks somehow just know how to be economically stronger. Don't know why.
I kinda understand the "White Supremacist" point of view of somebody out there has to take care of race preservation of their own race. They don't want the white race to become extinct.
I always said, in Asia, it's the same for Chinese, South Indians, etc. Like there is quite a majority who feel a very strong duty to preserve the continuation of the purity of their race. Except in Asia, it's not seen as supremacy, rather it is seen as, simply, loyalty to your own race.
I always ask myself what's wrong with race preservation? IF every race, White/Yellow/Brown/Black, all preserve the purity of their own race. But can still be best friends and play together. What is the issue?
I should really even bother taking you up on this, but all of the differences between "races" you have quoted there are really differences between "cultures".
We have just been through a period (which is now ending) where from around 1800 western economies have been dominant in the world. Before this point (despite the Eurocentric nature of much history) European economies were not superior to the rest of the world. The British and French had one big problem when trying to trade with India in the 18th century - the Indians didn't want or need their goods.
Different strands of European social, economic and military development came together to produce the hegemony that "western" countries have today, but are so patently starting to lose in the 21st century.
Prior to that China and India both had lengthy periods where they were more economically and militarily sophisticated than Europe and , even closer to the Mediterranean there were long periods of domination by Semitic people's in present day Syria/Iraq and Africans in Egypt (prior to the influx of Arabic/Semitic peoples). Arguably too there were periods where great cultures in South American, Indo-China and Africa were stronger and more impressive than anything that was produced by the European populations at the same time. Arab maths was far more developed by European maths for hundreds of years.
This has nothing to do with race and everything to do with culture.
Middle distance running was dominated by white UK athletes in the eighties and records were set that it took many years to beat. Why - the popularity of middle distance running in the UK at the time. There are lots of white men running 400 metres but not 100 metres. Why - culture. Golf, squash and rugby are dominated by white people or people of Polynesian descent. Genes/DNA? - no culture again. Swimming records are held generally by whites, track running records by people of African descent. In cycling white people dominate except in France where there are more black track sprinters at the top of the sport. Recent Chinese success is many sports is a result of investment in development programmes and getting people into the sport, which in reverse is exactly why a country the size of India has a brilliant cricket team and not much else. Recent UK world dominance of cycling (without a single non-white rider at the top of the sport) is as a result of that development and the fact that cycling just isn't popular with non-whites in the UK.
So even in sport there is no firm evidence of differences in performance being due to race. In some sports people of African descent dominate and in others they don't. It does matter whether fast or slow twitch muscles are concerned. It is a reflection of who is the best at getting people into the sport and developing their skills and fitness.
As for your purity argument, I am the result of a number of very different white genetic backgrounds which aren't so obvious now because they have mixed together so much in the last 1000 years. That inter-breeding is why you can hardly distinguish the once more distinct European/Asian white racial groups and we now talk about Caucasians like they have always been one group.
My country is a mixing pot of race and culture and I love that. I love the music, the food, the culture and the different perspectives. Hell the white people in the UK hardly share the same culture, let alone the non-white people. I work in a very racially diverse workplace and community and in my life my partners have been from more than one race.
Europe has always had to accommodate immigrants. There is no natural eastern border to Europe or any significant oceans to stop people. The result over hundreds of years has been a blending and a mixing together which is the very stuff of life.
So fuck your racial purity prejudice. That's the kind of shit that divides people, spreads hatred and starts wars.
