    I think applying this concept universally is wrong and you raise an important point. Many Palestinians, Syrians, Lebanese, and Iranians may well be considered as “white” in first world concept but this does not stop “israel” bombs or bullets and it does not stop US/NATO sanctions siege.

    Obviously there are white Russians and non-white Russians. But has their skin color has protected people of Donetsk Mariupol or Kherson from nazi bombs?

    Yet the head of US terrorist military and general of AFRICOM are black American men and the CIA hires “latina mothers”. Such organizations are responsible for mass murders of black Africans on weekly by NATO proxy death squads. I have even seen leftists truly express wrong beliefs that Palestinians are actually “oppressing” black “israelis”.

    I find it interesting that this chart has so little to say about global international imperialist depopulation extermination campaigns.

    This tells us that imperialism is not based on race but something else. And perhaps that the exporting of NGO-ized discourses out of their first world contexts is not helpful.

    White Americans and Europeans are consistently some of the most insufferable humans I have ever encountered and that is how I understand the relevance of this meme. We know that the great satan and other arrogant powers France, UK, etc continues to exploit and enslave and kill nationally oppressed people for hundreds of years inside their own borders and this is the context of chart. One day soon they too will be free of satans clutches insha’allah.
