I personally think that would be a more intelligent way to claim superiority and judge others. I think the [previously known as white race] should be a rhombus. We are awkward, we are squares, yet somehow technically a perfect "all sides the same size" shape. How about Africans are triangles, Asians are circles, Latinos are pentagons, Indians are septagons, Egyptians are pyramids, and Native Americans are whatever shape they want. That sentence took so long to write because even though the shapes are completely arbitrary, I still felt completely racist calling an African an octagon. An octagon is no more threatening than a triangle. Or we could all be feminists and think that men are amorphous blobs... whatever works.

Races Classified by Shapes
I think that the whole races being colors thing is getting really old. I mean to have to say I have a black friend or that I'm a white guy? I mean, I could go along with these shenanigans if at least the rainbow was fulfilled. In all honesty, how bleak are the colors we picked? White, black, brown, yellow, and red. Red's a nice little flavor in the mix, but otherwise we make
up a pretty shitty palatte. I think that we have two options. We either be racist against new people and introduce orange, green, blue, and purple people (eaters perhaps...?). Or, we could be racist by shape.
