Why do you feel sorry for them?
Is there something about being multiracial that gives someone an ace card over someone who is simply multi-national, or even "monochrome" as you put it?
It's like you're saying that people like you who are mixed Black-White or some other racial combination have a leg up on everyone else. I call BS, because what really matters is whether you were exposed to different cultures & values........You could be mixed-race but born & raised in the middle of Nebraska without ever being exposed to any cultural diversity. It's all about the initiative that you take in life. Being mixed-race on the outside (skin-color) doesn't mean shit.
Now, you yourself sound like you have been exposed to a lot, gone to a lot of places and learned a lot, but that doesn't prove everyone who is mixed-race has a leg up on everyone else. That English-Irish monochrome guy you made fun of could have been exposed to more cultural diversity than you have.
