I wouldn't even bother listening to Neithan, his English is barely elementary school level. His 40k facts are off as well, and it appears his historical "facts" are quite wrong.

''for the record, i'm white, born and raised in a very white area (maybe 98+% white), and literally do not understand how anyone can entertain the concept that skin colour somehow bestows superiority. i believe that the majority of people who love alien-heavy sci-fi must feel similar - otherwise they wouldn't love alien-heavy sci-fi :P ''

Callum, you must be severely uninformed in even the most basic of Human Biology, skincolor is merely a phenotype. It can be argued that having White skin color, while it is the most beautiful is weaker in the light of the sun. Skin color does not bestow the other ethnic traits however, it is called genetics, and the Human genome contains up to 25,000 variying genes. Some genes are superior in structure, function, phenotype, and information for the RNA to translate. I'm not specifying any race, but Scientific evidence points out, as can be found in animals that when organisms adapt to an enviroment, they essentially evolve, and considering the fact that Europeans lived in a higher variety of climates than Africans, they adapted to more enviroments, causing their genes to become more evolved for dealing with weather and surviving/thriving. Africans are only equipped to deal with desert-like and tropical enviroments, therefore, they are less evolved you could say. And in conclusion, using that example as one of many, Europeans have a more advanced genome than Africans. That does not always nessesarily mean  however, that Europeans will always be smarter, or such, but that they are more able to survive and thrive. Do not forget that all humans started off as primates as well, and some migrated from Africa, migration has always been a powerful factor in Natural Selection.

Yes, the Emperor was phenotypically Caucasian by any terms, and certainly not Negroid/Mongolid. He was born thousands of years before such races were clearly defined, and since his tribe was nomadic, they could have been Caucasian in origin. Location of birth does not define race.

And no, Callum, being White and being an Imperialist/Facist does not automatically make you into a KKK-like White supremacist. In truth, not even Hitler was a White Supremacist, his main enemies were Communism, Jews, and Capitalism, never once was it stated that he disliked Blacks, Latinos, or Asians (Africans served in the Wehrmacht during the later years of the war and Mongols during Operation Barbarossa). Now anyway, let's get back to topic so you and Neithan won't further make fools out of yourselves.
