Oh dear, a "Slavs aren't white" take.

[–] Skullgrid@lemmy.world -1 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

yep. correct.

why , why would it be desired for slavs to be counted as white?

I mean I'd say any I've met would be puzzled if not angry if you told them they're not white. Probably 100% would be confused about what they are then.

It would probably be "desirable" in the sense that it's mostly the grouping they feel they belong to.

Americans say so much stupid shit, this wouldn't warrant puzzlement, much less anger from me.

More of a "huh, that's a new one" kind of reaction.
