    Skin tones are weird. When you paint skin tones, yeah you can go pink/brown/yellow or whatever, but real skin tones have mixes of shit you'd never expect, like blue and green. Also your skin isn't the same color around your whole body.

    Imagine your whole body was covered lip skin except your nipples, which are made of the skin from the soles of your feet.

    In Star Trek the green Orions called humans 'pink skins' for a while. White people were the real pinkos the whole time.

    Sure people are actually shades of brown pink and beige, but white is associated with purity and goodness and black is associated with shadow and evil, and the people who decided to classify everyone by a color system in the first place were racists.

    iirc it's based on 1600's scientific racism where different amounts of bile changed your skin tone, and Europeans were coincidentally the most balanced with their bile which made them superior, and said mixture of bile was considered "white"

    Answer I'm not going to source but feels right from a US history perspective (which I taught you a decade): whiteness as a concept was defined specifically in relation and distance to the concept of Blackness. You had anglos and teutons and celts and slavs etc etc who didn't see themselves as uniformly white until the use of black slaves tied freedom to whiteness and servitude to Blackness. Why they didn't call it pink instead? Idk

    We should be called pinkys, that's a good derogative.
