When people look back at the history of white people all around the world, some base their opinions on those facts. Countries that have been conquered and Natives pushed to the side, Natives brought from their home country to be slaves for whites, white people having majority if not all political power of countries making laws to oppress anyone not white, many stereotypes for other races that are still used today being started by white people; all of this and more has been collectively used by some to base their opinion that white people are notoriously the ultimate oppressors/racists and no one of another race can be racist, and it makes no difference in their minds that it is far from truth.
