That hate and pain are the results of colonialism, white supremacy, pseudoscientific racism, genocides, eugenics, mass rape, concentration camps, war crimes, slavery, caste systems and methodic dehumanization. Nothing else. There is no inherent discomfort with personal looks amongst humans nor amongst other animals. Racism, hate and self hatred are poisonous seeds whose unrooting will take centuries, if not millenia, (if we have enough time left on the planet as a specie). Just as misogyny, ableism and other social schizophrenias and terrors. HATE SHOULD NEVER BE NORMAL. Violence and traumas are inherited when people don’t try and break the cycle. Just as it happens with domestic violence, and transcidal and femicidal terrorism. When we see it as natural and shrug we assume our defeat and self-destruction, wheather we benefit from hate or are recipients of it and scapegoats. When we naturalize abuse, inequality and cruelty we support crimes and evil, wasting the time we have as individuals and as generations. Sanity, equality and compassion start with the decolonization of our own mindsets.

Ese odio y ese dolor son resultados del colonialismo, la supremacía blanca, el racismo pseudocientífico, genocidios, eugenesia, violaciones masivas, campos de exterminio, crímenes de guerra, esclavitud, castismo y deshumanización metódicas. Nada más que eso. El auto odio étnico, por tono de piel y por cualidades físicas no es una característica inherente ni en nuestra especie ni en otras. El odio y el auto odio racistas son semillas venenosas que nos tomará siglos si no milenios arrancar (sólo si tenemos suficiente tiempo en el planeta como especie). Paralelo a la misoginia, el capacitismo y otras esquizofrenias sociales y terrorismos. EL ODIO NUNCA DEBE VOLVERSE NORMA NI COSA DE TODOS LOS DÍAS. Las violencias y los traumas se heredan hasta que alguien rompe el ciclo, como ocurre con la violencia intrafamiliar y los terrorismos feminicidas y transcidas. Cuando vemos al odio como algo “natural” y encogemos los hombros, es cuando asumimos nuestra derrota y nuestra auto destrucción, sea que nos beneficiemos del odio o seamos recipientes de este y chivos expiatorios. Cuando naturalizamos abusos, inequidades y crueldades es cuando defendemos crímenes y maldad, desperdiciando el tiempo que tenemos como individues y como generaciones. La cordura, la equidad y la compasión empiezan por la descolonización de nuestras mentalidades.

And people in the west make fun of those who are tanned skin 🤦🏻‍♀️ smh

@leeseung-hyunlove7446 says:

BS. White women want to have “tanned white skin” They never want to have “dark skin of black/brown people” these are totally different two things.

@lola-to9om says:

white skin isn’t even good it doesn’t protect from the sun if you are exposed to the sun a lot you can develop skin cancer but darker skin protects from an of things you can even disappear in the darkness 💀💀

anyway my point is we look like this because of our evolution every skin color has its importance
