If the Swedes are in the 'List' don't call me White.

Seriously though, the people who see racism are the racists. The world is full of other people and one of the greatest strengths of the human brain is to categorize and distinguish so that we are not constantly needing to relearn the details we have already covered. When it comes to people summing up the details of one's personal experience to conclude the world has prejudiced itself, it probably has.

Swedes are so white they are almost transparent. Other than that I don't really know what you are talking about.

To qualify, I am Norwegian 50%. Those who ruled Norway took over from the Laps milenia ago and fought the swedes as a different folk over the same bit of land for centuries, cutting and discerning themselves as distinct cultures. About six hundred years ago they stopped fighting and have politely teased one another since. To suggest that they struggled to distinguish themselves only to be categorically lumped into a group some call 'white' is funny, and profoundly ignorant. Cultures define themselves all over the world by great and small differences, to step up and talk racism is an infintile trap that demeans the whole race of humanity.
