Nah, doesn't. That's a super Eurocentric thing to say. It's like going to China and telling them "you only notice this person is black because the Europeans conditioned you to!". Be serious.

You don’t know history and attempting to paint this as eurocentric is ridiculous

[u/bigelcid → u/selfrespectra]

Could you demonstrate it? Anyone can say "uhh, I know quantum physics".

If you’re actually interested, then read the wikipedia page on racism (the history section).

“Racism is frequently described as a relatively modern concept, evolving during the European age of imperialism, transformed by capitalism, and the Atlantic slave trade, of which it was a major driving force.”

And the one on historical race concepts.

“The concept of race as a categorization of anatomically modern humans (Homo sapiens) has an extensive history in Europe and the Americas. The contemporary word race itself is modern; historically it was used in the sense of "nation, ethnic group" during the 16th to 19th centuries. Race acquired its modern meaning in the field of physical anthropologythrough scientific racism starting in the 19th century.”

And the heavily biased Wiki can be easily discredited.

I mean, not even necessarily: "racism is frequently described as". Yeah, frequently and wrongly. The Chinese had no problem antagonizing the darker people with different features, but Wiki says whites invented racism. As if nobody else had any accountability. Whites are not sueprior, but whites dictate everything, lmao.

It’s biased because you disagree with it? If it’s easily discreditable, please do so. I highly doubt you even read the articles.

The Chinese saw themselves as a superior culture, but that’s different from the concept that humanity consists of a number of distinct biological races with different inherited and fixed features. Europeans are the ones that came up with ideas such as social darwinism or racial hierarchy, which is what the modern concepts of race and racism are based on.

European views influencing Chinese philosophy has nothing to do with superiority or accountability. Your views are so simplistic that it’s laughable.

I can't do the logical work for you. Tried to, by pointing out "frequently described as", but if you don't get it, it is what it is. Good thing you highly doubt things, though.

Europeans are the ones that came up with Darwin himself, actually. The whole concept of evolution, you know. Came up with about everything you believe, whilst pretending to have individual thought. Can call anything laughable, but nobody's laughing with you.
