Nell Irvin Painter mentions this whitewashing of history in her book "the history of white people". :mjpls:

The Greeks and Romans would've looked much darker than they are commonly portrayed. Germanic cacs superimposed their beauty standards and their obsession with fair skin onto them.

But they are still white even if they were darker.

look at all those objective racist comments,
I'm sure these statues and the white washing of history had no effect on them making such statements :ehh:

Logic and reason will never get through these cacs. They'll sit there with a straight face and say Egypt was a multicultural civilization that didn't belong to any one race but, say Greece and Rome were homogeneous white cultures even though they sat on the same super highway. They were the New York and Paris of their day but, only white people decided to move there :mjpls:Greece and Rome were as white as Utah and Egypt was a New York City melting pot eventhough you could travel between all three within a few days by boat.

THIS^^^ The double standard is amazing.....It's kinda of like when they say "Even if the Egyptians were black skinned people, they're not your people, your people come from West Africa." Yeah well guess what CAC the Greeks and Romans aren't your people either. The roaming Germanic and Gothic tribes at the time had nothing to do with the construction of Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome. Furthermore Greeks and Italians aren't pure white like Scandinavian and other Germanic Whites, which is why white people themselves didn't consider Southern Europeans to be white people until relatively recently....
