We constantly hear the term “systemic racism” hurled at us from the left, which the right promptly denies, but both responses are not credible. The charge of “racism” usually shows an ignorance of human nature. The true definition of racism and ethnocentrism defines the races as distinct from one another, not equal, but with different talents, while being universally the same in being bio-culturally oriented toward family, ethnic group, and locality. To survive and reproduce successfully races evolved to be compelled by their genes and by the nature of their environment to be internally cooperative but externally xenophobic. The definition of racist and racism pushed by the media and schools of bigots believing that their own racial group is superior and that another racial group is inferior is a defamatory and inaccurate definition of real human nature.
Real human nature is ethnocentric and “racist” because for tens of thousands of years right up to our present time group selection, or ethnic altruism, was the best way for individuals and groups to be successful in survival and reproduction in a zero sum game where the gain of one ethnic group is offset by the loss of another ethnic group. So human nature became genetically kin-centered and ethnic-centered, even xenophobic, as well as being genetically gender defined, age-graded, heterosexual, marriage-making, hierarchical, and religious-making, with group-selection and ethnic selection as the primary unit of successful selection, followed by individual selection.
Real human nature should not be left out or denied by political philosophy. If real kin and ethnic-centered human nature was allowed to be what it is, it would naturally lead to regionalism, localism, general conservative values, eventually ethnostates, and finally an ethnopluralism of ethnostates for all groups, black, white, brown, yellow, or red, with each ethnostate protected from marauding imperialists, global businesses, supremacists, Marxists, etc.
