Why are many dark-skinned ethnicities racist against Africans when they are also dark themselves?

[Swarthy_Syndicate]

So many "brown" societies tend to see black Africans as inferior darkies when they themselves are physically not far off from the same color. What gives?

Like seriously I heard even in India (which has some who are even slightly darker than typical Africans) they would say "kallu" (blackie) to insult Negroids who ventured into their land. It's a slur for a dark-skinned individual, even though THEY ARE LITERALLY JUST AS DARK.

Maybe this discrimination would make sense if they were a good bit paler... but they got plenty of melanin in their own skin as well homies.

Well they are just in denial to make themselves feel better.

It’s cope, pure and simple. Even within a single, ‘dark’ culture you have a social hierarchy based off of the lightness of one’s skin.

Race isn't skin color.

Well, racism is part of their cultures.



Arabs, especially males, tend to have a superiority complex, often revolving around their tribe and religion. They call black people "عبيد" or "slaves" literally.

The Hadith tells of a prophecy about a black man bringing evil to Islam. Black men were prophesied to destroy the Kabah.

But when Muslims preach to blacks they only say that Islam’s first muezzin was a black man. They don’t tell the rest of the story.

This is the writings of an Arab scholar called Ibn Khaldun whose family lived in Al-Andalus before they moved away as the Reconquista progressed.



Candy in pic related is called "ras al-abed" or "head of the slave".



In Syrian dialect it is common to call peanuts, (formally in Arabic: "Sudanese nuts"or "فول سوداني") "Slave nuts" or "فستق عبيد".

Liberals even tried to co-opt cancel culture and BLM to prove how Muhammad was a racist.



This Arab-American girl got cancelled for being racist against blacks on Twitter.

Caste system in India created a major inferiority complex where they try to get what is considered above and better, just like white skin is considered superior in India and there is a huge skin bleaching/whitening industry.



We see people like that on this very forum.



Ironically, higher caste groups in India don't cluster in with modern Europeans (which is obvious) and they're not white.

Pic related is an Indian who was legally termed as a non-white by the US government and 20,000 Indians were deported from America in 1923 because Indians were then considered legally non-white invaders just like Arabs in Europe today.



Back in the early 1900's, Canada turned away a boat of Punjabis trying to immigrate and Canada didn't want them (this is back when we were a country who only had whites, some orientals and the odd African-Canadians who came from the British West Indies or were descendants of blacks who fought for the UK during the US Independence War and won freedom to Nova Scotia and elsewhere). Regardless they stayed in the harbour for weeks until they were told to go back to India by the feds.

And I don't have to remind you how pissed would your average Indian be if BLM activists demand that they all start banning their skin whitening products.



It's very odd how we've come to a collective consciousness globally. One thing happening in one country means changes in another. Imagine that, there were changes in India because a black guy got killed in America lel.

Race isn't skin color.

^ This is correct, black people are the bottom of the barrel when it comes to civilization building. Other darker skin people are more able to build better civilizations such as the ancient Egyptians, Mesopotamians , Romans (not sure how 'dark' they were) etc.. etc..

Even third world countries like South America are superior to sub-saharan Africa.

Indians (not American but dot-head Indians) are technically caucasian not negroid and it is not based on skin color.

You’re being disingenuous. The reason the pre-Muhammad Arabian tribes hated Muhammad is because he was destroying their slave business by preaching all humans are equal and creating rebellion amongst their enslaved blacks.

This passage was something of an anomaly for its time. It went in direct contrast to other religious texts, which generally taught a specific group or groups of people were the people of God. Instead, it tells us that all of mankind was created by God, with languages and races coming into existence by design. This is something to keep in mind today as gentrification and Westernization sweeps the world, almost eradicating the other tongues and cultures created by God.

The Prophet reaffirmed this teaching - with noticeable aggression - in the following Hadith:

"O people, your Lord is one and your father Adam is one. There is no favor of an Arab over a foreigner, nor a foreigner over an Arab, and neither white skin over black skin, nor black skin over white skin, except by righteousness. Have I not delivered the message?"

-Musnad Aḥmad 22978

Muslims use Abd as a name. It means slave . Many muslims have names such as Abd ullah or Abd ulbasit etc. Abid means servant. It can refer to any color servant

Because racism isn't just about pigmentation, some cultures do have skin color tied to a social stratification system, but the consequences of the Arab / Atlantic slave trades (higher poverty rates for blacks in the Middle East and New World) and the precarious socioeconomic conditions of Sub-Saharan Africa both play a role in public attitudes towards Africans.
