Well he did qualify it by "as generally understood", to obviate smartass remarks, but I admit your thought occurred to me as well.If someone says "no" then they are admitting that they are invisible.
Admittedly, I was going to ask whether white was considered a color or not: a. because it's generally thought as a color. b. it's made up of all of the colors...If someone says "no" then they are admitting that they are invisible.
You raise a good point. Aren't 'whites' actually peach? Peaches with an orange president?

Peach on a good day. On a bad day? Spam.
Either you've got some weird peaches by you, or you've got some weird whites by you......
well, if you had to match the actual color of the skin on "whites", isn't it closer to the color of peach? We certainly don't look like albinos, which is actually white.
Maybe we should start dividing based on shades instead? "I'm sorry, you're not a true white," says the albino person to the non-albino. If we did this, would that kill "white supremacist", overnight, or would they just rename it to something more technically correct, like ignoramuses?
I'm one of the "clear people".If someone says "no" then they are admitting that they are invisible.
We have trouble with cops too.

Should I answer considering my cultural background or yours?
I am considered white in Brazil, but would be considered hispanic or latino in USA.

I know, but as an artist I couldn't resist. Apparently the people who classified races according to certain colours did not have good eye sight.

Exactly! The funny thing is that black people are considered people of colour and white people are excluded, yet...... (insert what you said)

Is this taken from the invisible man?

And don't forget the blue and red because of veins and arteries.

Well the Orange president almost got im-"Peach"-ed so..... I don't think that even the peaches like him so much?
"Invisible" is a triggering micro-aggression.
We prefer to be called "Clear Americans".
