was watching idk watch the video by philosynoir about the racialization of pit bulls and saw this discussion happening in the comments
this is such a perfect example of something I am often trying to articulate to people--the more blunt and violent expressions of people's beliefs in eugenics and race science are often revealed in how they discuss domesticated animals.
you will hear people talk about "pure breeding" or about personality being genetic or openly and uncritically advocating for "mercy killing" as the solution to disability, etc.
these beliefs do not stay contained to conversations on other animals. if you believe this is how life works & buy into these forms of bioessentialist genetic valuation, and you understand humans are also living beings, then you will apply these things to humans too.
one cannot believe in eugenics in one area and have it stay there. it always becomes the "common sense" applied to all sorts of areas of life, from the interpersonal to the international.
I was talking the other day about how I was picked on in school, and how a not insignificant portion of it was my peers latching onto me being not white.
Like I had multiple bullies who each decided I was a different race and then harassed me because of that. I was picked on for being Mexican, Greek, Middle Eastern, Armenian, Indian. I am none of those things, but in the eyes of my white, Christian peers I was Other from them and they were dumbass high schoolers trying to figure out WHY.
Which is why it is extra funny to me when antisemites tell me that I am white, and only white, and not only that I am SUPER white because like. I've spent my entire life being bullied specifically because the white Christian kids I was brought up around felt that I was somehow Not Like Them and they went out of their way to try and figure out in what way I was Not White and then bully me for it. And these were just the kids who didn't know me or hadn't really heard much about my family, because all the OTHER people who bullied me went straight for me being a Jew.
Like not only does this personally nail down the point that no, Jews are not white and people will always find a way to make us not white (and IMO the whole "Jews are super white" is just the Progressive Way to do that, especially when it's white progressive who are trying to make Jews Even Worse Than Them by making us whiter than they are, thereby having someone else to point to when someone starts hating on white people and they don't want to have to face up to it).
But it also really illustrates how whiteness is a stupid made up category, and the ENTIRE purpose of whiteness in the USA is to determine who is Us and who is Them, and it fluctuates and shifts depending on what is most convenient to the people who see themselves as undeniably white at any given time.

The Prisoner (1967) is about what happens when someone who has been groomed, lauded, and protected by the death cult of whiteness chooses to denounce the system that shaped them and has to face the cosmic horror of continuing to live under that system, among people who constantly attempt to re-impose its false reality upon him. It’s about the monumental task/responsibility of doing everything in one’s power to shatter the facade, and convince these people that they’re the wardens of their own prison, and also have the power to resign, like he did. But time and again, they choose not to. They choose the Village. They like the Village. The Village is killing them. The Village has made them numbers and chess pieces, but they reason it’s easier to stay the course laid out for them than attempt to forego it. And all the while, they ask him why he resigned—why he keeps attempting to escape. They violate him repeatedly—intimately—to find out WHY. And he refuses to tell them not only to protect his last vestige of autonomy, but because they could never truly understand. He has to make them see it for themselves. But when he tries to raise his voice, when he uses the platform which they’ve handed him (because as much as he’s violated, he’s still protected by the Village—they can’t let him die, can’t damage the tissue; he’s an asset to them all the same), he’s drowned out by a chorus of “I’s/i’s/eyes,” because in the Village, everyone is Number One: the leering face behind the mask of this society: the voyeur and surveilled: the jailer and the prisoner.
"Of course, people at the time felt a range of anxieties about abolition. Slave owners worried about their plantations, and the profits that the labor camps wrought. White overseers feared joblessness. Both feared the loss of superiority. Some Black people had reservations about how they'd sustain themselves without the steady, yet violent, income from their owners. Police abolition triggers similar anxieties today: moral, economic, and otherwise. But if abolitionists had waited to convince every single person that freedom was worth the pursuit, Black people might still be on plantations. Slavery's violence and oppression was riskier than Black people's plans, imagination, and will to be free. So they held the uncertainty in their bellies and started planning. Some started running. Rather than waiting for comforting answers to every potential harm ahead of us, let's plan. Run. Dream. Experiment. And continue to organize, imagine, and transform this society toward freedom and justice without police and violence."
