only ANGLO-SAXONS are white.
dude
couldn’t agree more.
with your username. you reminded me of the good old 19 century racism. tribalism in Europe.
what is white . when the definition it not limiting only for physical superficiality.. like i, e blonde and blue eyes
the better it for non-whites.
if you narrow it down to the political purpose n tribalism it going to backfire you to you people and ppolitical movement and for global unity for white people.
white nationalists allso are pretty hard on communist gays. feminist. Jewish there you left out bunch white folks. . the smaller your privilege group is going to be the better its for non-whites.
there aren’t many white people in the world. and the stronger the opposite is going to be.. Jewish are pretty liberal .. and the racist is going on in Europe for Romania abd Albanians.
thankfully not much white Latino consider themselves white.
Correction
She is german, irish, english, welsh, dutch, french, scottish, and austrian
Sorry that’s my annoying cousin lmao
I thought she was elegant and gorgeous. Her face was perfection. I am usually not a fan of blondes, but I thought Grace was beautiful.
She is beautiful but not white.
you make me laugh
yes, technically not a WASP
Lol, germanic people were thought to be the master race, anglo saxons were part germanic. According to you, anglo saxons are not white.
Anglo-Saxon tribes originally came from Northern Germany. Don’t feed the trolls!
A very beautiful woman in her time.
