It will be skin colour again, but limited to a tighter spectrum.
People really forget that racism against Italians and Irish was a thing.
We don't want the Irish
Poor Irish folk. I love the Irish. And while I've plenty of opportunity to watch blazing saddles it just doesn't appeal to me. Is it wrong of me to defend the Irish in light of my ignorance of this humorous show?
It would be wrong not to defend the Irish.

It still is.

It'll just be the intra-European racism that already exists, which doesn't particularly follow skin color.
Germanic, Celtic, Slavic, Mediterranean, etc.. Each with their own subdivisions ready to go if the others were wiped out.
As a man from that little village here, fuck those cunts from the village over there! Their fields are full of hamsters and their wheat smells of elderberries.
mediterreans would be darker skin, so they are the first targets. then it goes to anti-semitism in the end.
Historically, no. In Germanic regions it's first Jews, then Slavs, then Celts, then Mediterraneans. Mediterraneans get credit for the Reniassance, Greco-Roman civilization and Christianity.
Mediterranean is too broad. Northern Italian and Greek were ok for Nazis.
Certainly not Libyans, Egyptians, Palestinians etc.
I was going to say, some pasty motherfuckers who can't be exposed to the sun for 15 minutes without going to the hospital are going to say they're the superior people.
They tried, but everyone supported Macklemore.
Nah, as such a pasty motherfucker, other white people expect you to tan. I grew up being teased for my paleness and my neighbor offered to let me use her tanning bed. (I declined because I burn but don't tan).
My public school system was 100% white until my senior year of high school when a black family sent their kids to kindergarten.
