For fucks sake! In Africa and other parts of the uncivilized world, women and some men, literally bleach their damn skin. They use caustic dangerous and harmful chemicals to get their brown and black skin as light and white as possible. Of course everyone believes and feels white is beautiful. It's even their damn instinct to wish to be white. And its not advertiser propoganda because there are historic reports going back centuries from people who visited the 'dark continent' and spoke of natives making their skin whiter, or as white as they could back then, after seeing visiting groups of white Europeans. It was their fucking natural instinct to do this. The same way they put fucking plates in their mouths/ lips and weights and loops in their ears. They saw this type of visual look in some other advanced culture and they wished to look like them, because within their limited brains they believed it they look like white people they will be as smart and beautiful and successful as white people. The concept of hardwork and sacrifice doesnt come up when thinking about becoming like white people. Only the most simplest explanation works for these savages.
