Proper nouns. I don't like Islam and Muslims, but I capitalize it. I'm a Christian. I capitalize Satan and Jesus.
It's in the modern day that this capitalizing white and black thing vs not capitalizing based on "what group you like or don't like" has come about and it's absurd. My whole life, both black and white were lowercase because they were seen as adjectives. Even though Asian is an adjective, white and black were not considered in English grammar ever to be proper nouns. Now if you said Irish, or Caucasian, or European, they would be capitalized. Because in English grammar those are considered proper nouns.
Jew is also a proper noun. Though it can be an adjective, it's also a proper noun whereas white and black are colors and thus are not proper nouns.
When black people started capitalizing black it was because they were agenda driven, especially obvious how they'd capitize black and keep white lower case. The anti-white agenda was obvious.
Instead of mocking that and saying "English has grammar rules for what gets capitalized" the dissident right took the bait and started doing this selective grammar themselves. Capitalizing white while lower casing Jew, and black.
I'm following the same established grammar rules in typing as I have my whole life. It's you guys who are throwing around this post-truth grammar bulllcrap. My capitalization follows the established English rules. I think Karl Marx is a punk. But I don't type out karl marx to signify my distaste of his ideology. That's not how grammar works. The Bible correctly calls Satan the ultimate evil and yet Satan has always been capitalized just as Jesus has been capitalized because capitalization has no denotation of preference, it's a grammatical rule, and since white and black are not considered proper nouns in the English language, they have not gotten capitalization.
If you capitalize white you have to capitalize black which is stupid and falls into that same trap. I'll capitalize African, because it's a proper noun, but I'm not capitalizing white or black because neither are considered proper nouns in English.
I don't think it helps your case to say that the capital J was promised to you 6000 years ago.
Or, from another angle: who published your textbook, from which you learned to capitalize *jew*? Was it McGraw-Hill? This is fruit of the vine of jew Epstein's whore.
Discover a real God of real capital T Truth so you don't have to participate in this nonsense.
When the founding Fathers would describe themselves they'd probably use words like Anglo-Saxon, Protestant, Puritan, American, European or any number of descriptors which are proper nouns and would have capitalization.
If you have a problem with someone it's whoever popularized Anglo-Saxons using an English word for a color to identify themselves. Colors, which are adjectives do not get capitalized per established English rules that predates even America as a country.
It happened probably because we didn't know what to call black people to describe them. Calling them African would create an un-American identity in them. Then over time "if they're black then I'm white" probably became the predominant thought as the skin colors are the furthest apart.
There was a time when "white people" didn't call themselves white.
A 1600s Englishman would call himself a Briton, or an Anglo-Saxon, not a "white man".
If you want to fix this grammatical problem then the proper way is to reclaim older terms like Anglo-Saxon, not play into black Marxist attack on language games.
