Theory If a military conflict lasts longer than 3 yrs, economic strength determines outcome. If an economic conflict lasts longer than 30 yrs, ideological superiority determines outcome. If an ideological conflict lasts >300 yrs, technological generativity determines outcome

I have this weird theory that white supremacy hasn't ever been a proper governing ideology. More like a folk theory of implications of other ideologies like mercantilism or fascism which have actually governed. As in, "if the strong should rule the weak, whites should be on top"

what I’m trying to say is from a respectful, liberal relativist point of view, we can’t have hierarchy in ideologies because what group gets to determine hierarchy? where is the higher truth to appeal to if we admit cultural relativist hypothesis?
