Just as Western racial flattening goes toward a dark yellow tan unicolor.
Everything else, baby, the judgment of history, verdict of history, even now, gets discriminated against, hard.
How dare the Chinese be yellow racists!
How dare they, the illiberal bastards!
How dare the Hindus like their color, multicolor though they are, the bastards.
Muslims, whatever color they all are, they like it, trust me!
Everybody once wanted to be white. Those days are gone baby.
Even blacks, who wanted to be white the worst way, now want to be light brown.
Whites, and their imperial progenitors and descendants, are the new global racial and ethnic and social pariahs! Almost lepers socially.
Globalist dialogue:
I heard you met someone new.
Yes.
What color is he?
Hard to say.
You don't mean he may be white?
No, heavens no!
Well then, what is he?
He may be Jewish!
That's really bad too! Like a sand whitey!
Yeah, he looks like Lawrence of Arabia!

WESTERN MARKET CAPITALIST CULTURAL SOCIAL CONVERGENCE
I am going to begin to describe various institutions, phenomena, and events, which have accelerated in recent decades for various different reasons.
We have long seen at times, in civilization, tendencies to cross fields of endeavor, so to speak.
It has happened in the arts, in sciences and arts, in politics, for centuries, and millennia, really.
Ideas in one field are adopted, modified, imitated, for other media, another social context, other political or commercial or representational purposes, whatever.
What is new, it seems to me, is the accelerating tendency both to integrate new, and also to disintegrate older, in the process, social and personal experiences, histories, products, interrelationships, ideologies and even physical environments of life, really, based primarily and initially on market capitalistic initiatives.
It represents an unprecedented conjunction of private product commercial marketing and development, ubiquitous government deregulation, public and private social and commercial networking innovations, entertainment initiatives and innovations feeding on these tendencies and on the private media's technical and transnational transformations, and on the resulting willingness of all to promote and purvey anything which is saleable in the media and product marketplace, regardless of quality content or social conscience or consequences.
Now there are whole groups of people who identify with, say, The American Girl, or with the Twilight Series world. And with other converged marketing vehicles, amalgams of motion pictures, products, books, and games, household interiors and apparel, designer houses, even, etc.
In my generation, back 4 decades ago, one perhaps saw the beginnings of it, as Obst points out in passing, with the Star Trek series, and trekkies.
