Depresion over racial related topics

[Volo vent]

Im race mixed and during all my life i have been depressed over my skin color, i always wanted to be fair skinned but im cursed to be brown and disgusting all my life and the fact that some of my siblings got white skin and i dont makes me really sad, its not the main reason reason i want to CBT but is a problem i have been dealing with since young age i cant find a way to cope this

My cousin (who was my best friend for most of my childhood) is mixed black and white and I was always jealous of the way he looked when I was younger, so this is kind of ironic.

Brown skin is not disgusting! Skin is beautiful regardless of the shade. I always envied it. I wish you didn't doubt the beauty in your appearance.

 

[L-L]

Someone somewhere will think you've got the nicest skin tone they've ever seen.

I am biracial as well. Black and white. Growing up in a farm town in the 80s and 90s wasn't easy for me. None of the white kids wanted to play with me because I was simply black to them, and the black kids wouldn't play because i was white to them. I've often found myself wishing i was one or the other as well, but now as an adult I'm proud of both and always choose mixed/biracial on forms when i can. Be proud of who you are and where you came from. One day, there won't be very many people that are "pure", and I think the world will be better for it.

This seems contradictory. By 'pure', you presumably mean completely black or completely white? Sooo.. if you're black or white, be proud of who you are but be aware that when your kind die out, the world will be better?

I mean completely anything. And it'll be better because people won't be so hateful toward each other over something so silly as race or skin color if everyone is similar. But for now, accept who you are.

Yeah, they will. Colourism is a thing and I don't see religion dying any time soon. And if it wasn't those things, it would be something else.

The racism in society is horrible but it is not a reflection of your worth. You are deserving of love and your race is nothing to be ashamed of. It is an aspect of you that people can love and respect, it's just a matter of finding those people and community. I'm sending you my best wishes for your future, where ever it leads you.

Never got this politicized idea that you should be vicariously proud or ashamed of race, national origin and other things you have no control over and practically nothing to do with. Because I share squinty eyes with like 3 billion people I also share a permanent association to everything they are and do. Since I live in the west at the moment I guess I'm glad that I'm not black or white because this black vs white war and superiority/inferiority complex crap that started in the US is spilling over everywhere while asians are sort of spared.

while asians are sort of spared

Not anymore unfortunately, given that Asians (elderly in particular) are being attacked more frequently. Maybe the Rooftop Koreans might make a comeback if it escalates.

For the record, i'm White, Cherokee and Neg (aka "Nig"). My life would have undoubtedly been a thousand million times better if I had been just one of the three. I don't even care which one. Although my sensibilities prefer White culture.

I'm educated, and i have a keen sense of collective fairness and true Justice. I'm not brainwashed with popular culture or indoctrinated with communist education. I think for myself and come to my own conclusions and nothing is off limits to me as I seek the truth.

And, I'd actually like to have a real, pro-racist discussion about this. Racism isn't wrong, it's actually a positive attribute that's been twisted by those who control the media, those who shall not be named let's say.

Many of the problems that we face in this world today are because of the dilution of race and bloodlines as well as being un-tethered from the land. There is a holistic perspective and solution, but to even arrive at it we have to get off of our high horses and stop screaming the word racism as if it's wrong, or a legitimate argument for suppression of Whites.

White ppl are beautiful but their population is diminishing year over year at alarming rates. Who even came up with the term racism, or made it derogatory? EVERY people has a right to be proud of, and want to preserve, their people. But not at the expense of another people.

Right now, Whites are paying that expense. Unfairly, when you look into it they were the abolitionists that got rid of slavery, the real slave owners were, again "those who shall not be named". But those who shall not be named like to blame everything on White people because they hate and are jealous of White people, and they've infected the rest of us with that hatred.

Life feels meaningless and empty because we've been ripped away from our roots and stirred up into a homogeneous feudalist, AKA debt slave-based society where no two people are alike. Everyone's is just a mutt. This is not healthy, nor was it ever intended truly to be this way. Why do you think we have the Tower of babel, why do you think we had the 12 tribes of israel?

No, what we are seeing today, the race mixing, the miscegenation, It is by design, not to sound too much like a conspiracy theorist but if you notice patterns and dig deep you can't help but come to these conclusions.

I despise being marginalized and on the fringes of society because I'm not fully One race or the other. The races are very different, and depending on your preferences, & you look with true discernment, some are superior. Netflix and other media trying to re-write history and sat Blacks or Browns had anything to do with building the beautiful civilizations and architecture of antiquity are to mislead.

Likewise, the fallacy that some blacks repeat that they help to build America when all they did was pick cotton in the South and were brought here illegally Again by that group who shall Not be named if you look into it you will find this out.

If White people are so bad, why would everyone want to come to America, which was, if you read the founding documents, created for White people. So why does everyone want to come to what White people have built? Rather than do it in their own countries? All you have to do is look at a comparison of any beautiful European city before and after unfettered migration has taken place. The newcomers trash everything and turn it filthy.

I think if you're willing to consider CTB, you should be at a point where you're willing to be open minded about some of these more taboo topics, there is a need to be willing to open your mind further beyond the programming and conditioning that you've received in schools and movies/the media. They've taught us one narrative and it has not led to a better society overall I think we can all agree. Especially with rates of suicide, depression, anxiety and other mental disorders skyrocketing not decreasing with the so-called technological advancements etc.

Race is mostly a social construct as a result of people's natural fear of anything different. There is no universal "best" race nor is there a "worst" one. There are always going to be assholes with prejudice and people who will put you down... but if the world's peoples were all of the same skin color, they would differentiate you by something else. We see this all the time too. People discriminate within their particular subgroup and find someone to irrationally hate.

We could be disliking people for the hate they have for others, for the horrible things they put people through... that would be a genuine reason to want to hate someone. But, naah... let's love people who do horrible things because they look like us and hate people who are kind and good people just because they are a shade different.

People suck ass, and not at all in the good way.

It shouldn't take everybody being the same before people stop being hateful. And even then, why wouldn't people be hateful of something else?
