Ok, so if that wasn't a post about white racial superiority, why don't you explain exactly what non-white-supremacist idea(s) you were trying to communicate when you brought up race in this post:

For instance, if all races are equal, what was the significance of that third highlight? Do you simply like people being free, and the word "white" just happened to be in-between?
Your antecedent is incorrect. Races aren't equal. People aren't equal. You aren't equal to the bum on the street. Heck, you aren't equal to yourself from a year ago. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Anyhow, to spell it out, immigration from Mexico was already brought up before my post. Around half of illegal US immigration is from Mexico, hence why it's an important US immigration issue and why it was already in the conversation.

That post points to a prior US immigration policy that successfully limited immigration, illegal or otherwise, more effectively than today's due to those highlighted parts you ask about. Surely, you would agree that the 1790 Naturalization Act was more effective at restricting mestizos immigrating from Mexico. It doesn't suggest Mexicans are "superior" at crime, it doesn't suggest blacks are "superior" at basketball, nor does it suggest whites are "supreme". Nowhere does that post advocate colonizing, enslaving, or otherwise dominating Mexicans or any other group, directly or indirectly.

Nobody else has brought up supremacism in this discussion. You have repeatedly brought it up (here and other threads) because it's a demon floating around in your mind, and it's as misguided as the claim that origin nation is irrelevant in a discussion on who you allow to immigrate into your nation.

Also (and this is just for bonus points) I'd still love to understand your angle. Have you gotten banned for posting racist stuff before, so now you toe the "I'm not posting racist stuff" line because you are a racist but don't want to be banned?
 

You're getting rather personal there, loramin.

My angle is I'm not racist (at least not in how "racist" is commonly defined by your average working class person. Not emerging definitions from critical theory in academia.). In fact, I'd wager I respect the differences between peoples more than most.

Also, I've never been banned either! I have the cleanest whistle.

How dare you accuse me of racism, sir! I have token black friends! At work, I get along well with my one black intern and the one mexican guy as well as the hordes (~50%) of asians and indians. I was pals with members of various races at my culturally enriched schools. I have nothing against people on an individual relationship level based on race.

Are you just looking for attention and you know bringing up race (and picking the handle "Fash") will do that?
Nope, just drawing attention to contradictions or absurdities some people believe to be true e.g. all races/genders/people are equal, "diversity is our strength", multiculturalism is a net positive for societies, Islam is a religion of peace, feminist activists are genuinely fighting against abuse against all women (see my Rotherham post earlier), etc.

It's undeniable that you make racialy-tinted posts and like nazi-themed avatars than most people, but you go to lengths to argue that you're not racist. I would love to know why.
wrt to arguing I'm not a racist, that's because recently you and lancelot have been frequently making those accusations without any legitimate evidence in an attempt to ignore and distract others from my posts' content. It's also fun to role-play as the villain in your narrative. To my recollection, nobody else has made similar slanderous accusations (besides some fun Poke-quips).

Mostly, I like to get people questioning the truthiness of their bad assumptions by pointing to group disparities, cultural differences, historical inaccuracies, hypersensitivity to race, and so forth. Sometimes that causes a little hysteria in those who don't venture outside of their bubble. Conveying all that as a super-villain boogeyman avatar has been fun too thanks to the occasional rustled jimmy. "OMG! The nazis are everywhere!!"
