It used to separate us from the lesser races. Now everyone is just white. we used to pick on Italians, Irish, Jewish, polish, etc subcategories. we let the liberal elite muddy the racial waters though
Nazi Ukrainians see Russians as Asiatic Mongols especially because Russia's ethnic minority groups are dying disproportionally in Ukraine. Genetic studies found that Ukrainians, Belarusians and Russians have almost identical proportions of Caucasus and Northern European components and have virtually no Asian influence. However, many ethnic minority groups from Russia were found to be characterized by the presence of significant higher amounts of Asian components, while European ancestry also makes up the majority of their respective gene pool: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5751809/
Tell me these are a couple of troll posts. But it is interesting the "liberal elite" is brought up that is the spark for social progress. I don't know about "elite" because it doesn't usually come from the elite. It comes from progressives who are listening to those who want change, because they hold fairness and harm reduction highest on a moral scale and conservatives hold hierarchy, authority and ambiguity avoidance just as high, which prevents social change (things progressives care little about).
