Again with the purposely obtuse scthickBecause they want to be with people that have more in common with them? What about that in-group preference implicates supremacy?

You gotta speak louder, bruh. I can't hear you up at the front of the bus.You see a problem with it, but convenient that you don't see it when every other ethnicity does it. The ethnicity with the very least in-group preference gets the entire focus of racist accusations. How do you square that exactly?
A straw man is a common form of argument and is an informal fallacy based on giving the impression of refuting an opponent's argument, while actually refuting an argument that was not presented by that opponent. One who engages in this fallacy is said to be "attacking a straw man".Don't call in other people so you can dip out of making an argument. Nut up and face the point in front of you.
Let's put this in terms that aren't so cloudy for you. If a group of classmates don't want you in their group to hang out, what about that makes them lording over you? In still other words. If a group of people wants to avoid interaction with you, how is there an interaction for them to "oppress" you or how is your position to them one of "subservience"?

It's called "having friends". Get some.Don't call in other people so you can dip out of making an argument. Nut up and face the point in front of you.

He's not trying to dip out of an argument, he's just illustrating how you've been segregated from rationality. But that doesn't mean he thinks he's superior to you.Don't call in other people so you can dip out of making an argument. Nut up and face the point in front of you.

I can't believe it took me until 2018 to realize that segregation wasn't about white supremacy.
Fair warning, I'm not going to grant any serious time to arguments that ethno-segregation by the state is not racist.Segregation is what we speak of when a single nation-state separates its ethnic groups into distinct entities with different rights and privileges (for example "whites" with full rights, "blacks" with less rights).
Countries being built upon ethno-nationalism, catering to the needs of the ethnic group that founded the nation (while largely excluding others from that equation), well that is the case for most countries in the world outside of the United States.
Are most countries in the world inherently racist? I wouldn't say that. Even though Finland is over 90% "white" and "Finno-Ugric", I wouldn't say that the state is being racist. It's just that the state was built in service of the Finno-Ugric folk, and their particular needs, not the service of the African, or the Asian, or the Russian, and so on.
OK so how are the groups of friends that I'm not associated with supreming over me? How are they lording over me if I'm excluded from their group?

My argument is that Donald Trump is a racist, and a White Supremacist. My argument is also that one need not have power to be a White Supremacist, because it's a belief system. My argument is also that Trump is very dangerous because he is the fucking President, and also a racist piece of shit.Imagine that. No argument again.

Why is it that every time I go to a party, all the fat chicks hit on me?OK so how are the groups of friends that I'm not associated with supreming over me? How are they lording over me if I'm excluded from their group?

Let me make sure I understand your position. Do you claim that ingroup preference and supremacy are mutually exclusive?Funny because, I'm the only one here running up against dissonance. Should be easy for him to make the counter point to say why in-group preference is supremacist. That is fundamentally why non-interaction is commensurate with establishing a hierarchy. The separation from reality (and rationality) is the person conflating mutually exclusive terms.

Depends on whether they are pushing you out of the classroom or keeping the good seats to themselves, or whether or not they just pack up and leave and never talk to anyone else ever again foreverOK so how are the groups of friends that I'm not associated with supreming over me?
