    Regarding your Peter Griffin meme: Us Swiss and our Austrian neighbors are pretty white on average, but even beyond that, the Czech, the Polish, Estonians, Latvians and Lithuanians are very white on average.

        East asian countries after WW2 (minus China) are essentially subsidaries of Western/US imperialism.

        The ROK is essentially a US colony, their military is subservient to the US’ military “in wartime.” Guess what? They have always been in “wartime.”

        Taiwan is similar, the US maintains a large military presence there and in Japan to try to keep China in check as a geopolitical adversary.
