Where do russians fall on the whiteness scale? (hexbear.net)

To me Russians seem like white people who reject their whiteness, sort like the Irish but the Irish don’t try to reject it anymore. What’s your opinion?

Race as a biological concept is false, race as a social class does exist. And white people are oppressing everyone.

I don't see how attempting to define the whiteness of russians is doing anything other than reinforcing harmful structures and ideas

We want to eliminate race as a concept as well as class.
