The discussion centers on the perceived decline of white supremacy in a globalized world, highlighting the economic and demographic successes of non-white populations, particularly in informal economies. Participants argue that non-white leaders are emerging, with specific examples like Nigerians and South Africans dominating significant economic sectors. There is a contention that white societies are struggling to adapt to globalization, while non-whites are thriving despite historical colonial oppression. Critics challenge the validity of the claims regarding economic success and drug trade statistics, emphasizing the poverty levels in African countries and questioning the portrayal of drug dynamics. Overall, the conversation reflects deep divisions in perspectives on race, economics, and societal progress in a changing world.

Just a little enlightenment on the roots of darker-complexed immigrants (or "black people", as mentioned) in the Netherlands:

Turkey: SE-Europe/ SW-Asia
Morocco: N-Africa, just below Spain (hardly Nigerian)
Antilles: Carribean, just above N-Venezuela
Suriname: N-S.America
Indonesia: SE-Asia

Since you mention "black" people, I assume the ones from Antilles and Suriname are descended from sub-Saharan African slaves brought there centuries ago. Turks were originally from North/North East Central Asia. They and Moroccans should not be classified as black. Unless of course you believe "Wogs begin at Louvain" :rolleyes:

Wogs begin at Louvain? What is that supposed to mean?

OK, so let's replace black with brown, sheesj, or should I say mocca or beige or .. whatever.

Turks and Moroccans are considered part of the Caucasian race.

People, why is this even being discussed.

Fact of the matter is that you cannot just classify people as African by virtue of their skin tone or suspicious accent.
