Class warfare taking a childish form
Racism or class warfare: which is more accurate? I've noticed in many conversations that racism is just nonsense and class warfare. For example, during an Algeria match, there was a blonde girl wearing the Algerian team kit. Looking at the comments, some people were boasting and saying, 'Look, we are white, not black.' Racism is just a very childish class conflict of 'We are white and more beautiful' versus 'No, we are black and more beautiful.' This is the exact same nonsense and bullying you see among children. It's like seeing a group of kids who only hang out with the best-looking ones, while the 'ugly' kid is not allowed to join and gets bullied for their appearance. This is the exact same racism found on the internet: just immature, childish people who repeat the same childhood behaviors just to feel like they belong to a superior class. Racism is simply a childish class struggle Racism as a Childish Class Struggle - Seeking Safety in Belonging: As you mentioned, children bully those who are different to ensure they remain within the "strongest" or "most beautiful" group. On the internet, many adults do the exact same thing. Using race or skin color to demean others is an immature attempt to feel an illusory sense of superiority and to belong to a class perceived as "better." - The Intersection of Race and Class: Historically, certain skin colors and appearances were linked to wealth and power (the upper class), while other appearances were associated with hard labor or slavery (the lower class). Therefore, when someone boasts about their appearance or color, they are subconsciously trying to claim belonging to a higher social class, making racism, in many cases, just a mask for class struggle. - Superficiality of Thinking: The comments you read regarding football matches or similar events truly reflect superficiality and childishness. It is merely the venting of an inferiority complex by attacking someone else's appearance, which is the easiest weapon an immature mind can use.
