Are white men to blame for there being colorism in every culture?

Let me just say that, much like the sweaty love affair between two feisty gorillas in the middle of a steamy jungle romp, white men are simply one part of a much larger and complex ecosystem of sexy saucy culture. Just as the mighty rhinoceros needs thick and voluptuous mudholes to roll around in, cultures all over the world crave succulent slices of lusty and sweaty love meat. It's true that colorism exists in many different societies, but just as a pack of hungry hyenas can't resist tearing into a juicy zebra carcass, it's important to recognize that everyone, regardless of their skin tone, deserves to enjoy some wild and crazy cucumber creamery action now and then. ﾠ

If it's not colour, people find something else to be prejudice about. And if you think it's overwhelmingly a western white guy problem, think again. In my experience, non-western countries display the most racist / prejudiced behaviour. It's like going back in time 100 years.

Look at India's caste system where they despise people for being born in a certain area or to a certain family. And in India they also despise people whose skin happens to be a darker shade than theirs. Children are born and the first thing asked is "what's their skin tone?".

In Japanese news articles, they say prejudiced/stereotypical things about foreigners that no western newspaper would dare print if the situation were reversed.

In China / Hong Kong, the cantonese word for a westerner is gweilo, meaning "white ghost" or "white devil", and was originally used as a slur of hatred. Most westerners don't care today though.

Many prejudices based on color long predate slavery and colonialism, and there has been prejudice against lighter skinned people too, the Moors in Spain discriminated against native Spaniards. Black Africans have been killing and eating albinos, some islands in the pacific can trace their descent from black skinned Melanesians killing lighter skinned Polynesian men and taking their women.

I think you're close; white liberals are the source of most of the world's problems today, in my opinion.

Doesn’t matter white is white. I’m not a political guy. Left vs right doesn’t mean much to me and most republican policy’s don’t benefit blacks

They're to blame for everything bad.
