In neocolonialism, the colonized women oppresses themselves. This is what Fanon described. They considered that being in a relationship with a white man was being elevated because they considered their own race and society as socially backwards. Hence they aren’t exploited.
That part is in their heads is it not? A whiteness within themselves to distance themselves from other colored people like them is within the responsibility of themselves.
On one hand people are responsible interrogate their own biases created by their material and social conditions. On the other hand our collective responsibility is to work to promote policy that undermines racism by changing those material and social conditions.
Whiteness and coloredness are social constructs contingent on the movement of history. To insist that this racism is not ephemeral is anti revolutionary. I’m not saying it is solved at the moment mind you, but as communists we must do our part to make racial hierarchies a thing of the past.
If you are talking about white men in general being passport bros being shitty and probably leads to a miserable marriage, yea they suck.

They didn’t create the racial hierarchy. That was the colonizer. Don’t blame the victim for following the rules created by the rule makers. A white man is placed higher in Western society so it’s not their personal bias at all.

Then don’t call other countries socially backwards when you are using a capitalist measuring stick to compare them to the West. Just because there are more girlbosses in Western countries doesn’t make up for the exploitation of a far greater number of underclass women. As Fanon pointed out, the more “liberated” bourgeois white French woman lived off the back of exploited French black colonial servants. That doesn’t make France the more forward society at all.
