Historically for much of the time voting was not restricted to whites or males, just to landowners. It just so happened that almost all the landowners were white males.
A Bitcoin economy would be the same: The people with power would be the early adopters (that's us! woo!), who are overwhelmingly white and male.

Breaking down your post in the nicest way possible so you can continue to troll hard. According to this information, the voting was not a "racist" thing intently, it just was that way because "almost all the landowners" were white males. I think it is safe to say in this example from history, to be a landowner, you had to be white, yes? So basically the whole voting thing was a sham, right?
So now you are saying that the Bitcoin economy would be the same? So you are saying that it was only white people who had the opportunity to make Bitcoin? Also, Japanese/Satoshi = "White" to you I guess? (going by the classic definition of they aren't race 'x' or 'y' then I must label them as white?) Or are you saying because not enough non-white people were there to invent Bitcoin, that they have to be like a bad movie and force "one of every race" just to meet your weird diversity requirements? BASICALLY WE MUST CHANGE THE PAST FOR THE FUTURE. We don't need more black people to use Bitcoins, we need more black people to invent Bitcoins?
You trolled good, this thread makes no sense.
I await the same version of this thread but involving women not using Bitcoins, it is sadly a little more progressive to at least discuss that as a joke.

It's kindof predictable though: such decrying tactics are typical responses from those who are yet to confront their own privileges. They are simple deflections, to avoid and delegitimise awkward questions about equality and race...
Pot, kettle, etc. Says the guy who seems to have stopped taking questions on the topic he started. Lots of questions, no answers, you seemed to have stopped the topic and instead we are being Meta about the thread itself and it's users, weeeeeee.Please, who or what defines a person as White?
Who or what defines a person as black?
This simple clarification in the original post might change a lot
