    But the single greatest offense you can commit towards a white person is to accuse them of racism - even if it’s not conscious.

    You know what’s stupidly hypocritical about yanks?

    They demand others see them with the nuance that they never give.

    All Muslims and Arabs are terrorists with a backwards culture!

    All Chinese are hive minded and worry about “face” and honor.

    All Russians are drunk barbarians who want to destroy the west.

    But God forbid you call all americans racist, violent, stupid, and arrogant. Each yank will insist it’s just a few of them and that not all of them are the loathsome white supremacists that everyone can see. If you bring up the genocides they’ve committed and the fact that trump really is the face of the nation, then they’ll cry up and down about how that’s not true and that trump is just a temporary thing!

    Nothing is genuine with those people. Everyone of them is a hypocrite.

      And then in the next breath those yanks will casually talk of nuking X middle eastern country or some other place they don’t like.

        The irony isn’t just lost, it never existed for them. It’s so pathetic that I actually wish euros were doing more to denigrate Americans online. Give them a taste of their own medicine.
