 @b05df304  But Human considering others as subhuman or even another race, this is white European Elite Ideology.  The truth of this statement has nothing to do with scale. So while scale may “matter a lot” due to societal impact (and it does) that still has no relevance to the argument in debate at the moment.

I still stand with that statement, because I can bring you many quotes from so many prominent white European Elite(Philosophers, politicians, rules, writer, etc) that make claim.

I challenge you bring quotes from  prominent Elite from North Africa, middle eat, south America, that make that claim.

I truly believe that the master race Ideology is purely European origin.

Note:(Ideologies tend to spread, so other nations i.e Japan embracing that ideology does’t make it less European).

You dont see the fallacy of logic there?

You are claiming “Only X does Y”.. and then go on to effectively say “I can prove it by giving examples of X doing Y”… That would only prove that X does Y, it is the “only” part you need to prove.

So if for every single one of your examples of a white man treating a non-white as lesser, if I could match each one with a historic example of a non-white person doing that to another, then do we agree you’d be wrong? If you dont agree then do you see why your approach here  doesnt prove your point?  I challenge you bring quotes from  prominent Elite from North Africa, middle eat, south America, that make that claim.

I’d be happy to, but before I waste my energy what is the exact number of prominent non-white people doing this do I need to actually quote for you before you agree I have proven you wrong? I mean, I need to know what the rules are if you wanna go this route.  Note:(Ideologies tend to spread, so other nations i.e Japan embracing that ideology does’t make it less European).

Well at least you moved the goal post before I bothered… So now your saying no matter how many quotes I give you of elite non-whites looking down on other races you can always play the “well the idea originated from a white guy at some point” game and invalidate those quotes arbitrarily? I hope your seeing your biases now and how you even set the rules up knowing you will be proven wrong and giving yourself a backdoor… Because even actual evidence now you can just hand wave away with no proof.
