Theory and construct, yet again.

I'm proud to be a Yorkshireman. Proud of my coal-mining forebears who handed down along the generations a simple saying: "There's no bugger white at t'bottom o' t'pit!"

Accident of evolution made humans apex predators.

Accident of climate made some of us white.

Accident of environment and geology gave Europeans a technological edge which they used to their advantage.

Historically, white people behaved no better or no worse than any other people, but their more advanced tech made them better at both good and bad behaviour.

These are the facts. Everything built on them is a cultural construct which has become so complex that it is now falling apart under its own weight.

Acknowledge the accidents. Acknowledge who we are. Live honestly and keep the constructs simple.
