Like irish and italians?On point that Coates made is that he doesn't think America will become a Majority-Minority country. Instead, it's likely that the definition of 'White' will probably expand to include at least a subset of Latin-americans and probably Asians as well.
I'm vaguely fond of Old Ben, but I'm pretty sure his... problematic attitudes went beyond being upset at Germans snubbing his newspapers."Redskins", so yeah, I'm pretty sure he's implying the natives are better than the swarthy Germans. I don't know if there's any logic behind that, but Franklin was kind of personally offended at the Germans trying to move into Pennsylvania at the time (anecdotally, I believe he was upset they wouldn't read his paper, and were printing their own german language one instead or something?)
Whites were the royalists while the Reds were the non royalists, tho the Reds were mostly various forms of socialism and communism.
And, as everyone should know, the Reds beat the Whites and formed what would eventually become Soviet Russia.

True but there is a certain social concept or ideal that is the mould for what a lot the Alt-Right in america bases their rhetoric around. White as a race is stupid but as a unifying cultural stereotype? That I feel is very much real and alive in the political discourse of today and before in earlier years though still dumb. The exact meaning of that changes as noted by the thread but there seems to be some basic values that stick with it. Now how those values change and morph with different states in America or again noted by the thread South America is also part of the question.The only true Whites are the anti communists.
Better dead than red.
What, as a descriptor of race? It does not make sense. "Caucasian" makes more sense and it still does not make sense.
