"white folks" just sat back and smoked their pipe while others did the work building this nation and they then swoop in and took the credit. Is that accurate?

I am saying that white people get a lot more credit than they deserve, with conservatives claiming that white people did everything (aka appropriation and white-washing). Whereas black/brown and others get a lot of shit from conservatives from simply demanding that they get fair credit or compensation for the things that their ancestors contributed to this country and for the things that they had to endure from the white majority (aka wokeness and Critical Race Theory).

ESPECIALLY when modern day white people often descended from people who weren't even considered white by their contemporaries at the time.

In the 1810s, the only pure Americans were the British. Everyone else were considered dirty European immigrant scum (Germans, Scots, Scandies).

In the 1860s, then it was the Slavs, Poles, Irish who were dirty immigrant scum, and not considered white people. But the Germans, Scots, and Scandies were considered 'real Americans now'.

In the 1880s, it was the Chinese, Russians, etc who were dirty immigrant scum,.

In the 1920s, it was the Italians and Greeks who were dirty immigrant scum, but the Irish, light-skinned Slavs, Russians, and Poles were now integrating into the White Club of America.

In the 1940s and 50s, it was the Jews who were dirty immigrant scum.

In the 1960s, it was the Vietnamese and Mexicans who were dirty immigrant scum, but now the Italians and Greeks have now joined the White Club of America.

In the 1970s, now it was the new Japanese, Indians, and Middle Easterners who were dirty immigrant scum, but now the Jews and white Mexicans/Hispanics have joined the White Club of America.

And yet, blacks, who have been here long than EVERY MODERN WHITE ETHNIC GROUP IN THIS COUNTRY besides the English and the Dutch, never got to join the White Club of America simply because their skin color had the highest stark difference in skin tone than every other ethnicity.

HOW MANY FUCKING CURRENT WHITE PEOPLE IN THIS COUNTRY have British ancestry? If you do not have British ancestry, then BLACK (the ones descended from North/South American slaves) PEOPLE are MORE AMERICAN than you.

EVEN NOW, there are a bunch of conservative blacks who have joined the "We were here first Club" and have joined the hate against the newest wave of migrants coming into this country.
