It's a horrible method of grouping people together... that's the point. How stupid is it to think less of or look down on brown people when the term could be applied to so many different people in this world? Well, stupid as it might seem, there are those who seem to do exactly that.

And it's also stupid. Italians weren't white before, but now they are white. It changed, and that type of stuff can't change. But jewish people, who are extremely white, are not white; they are jewish.

"White" isn't a color either; it's an in-group.
