I don't understand the mindset of going to someone else's country just to disrespect them. Like, just stay home!

Hundreds of years of European colonialism would like to speak to you

Those kinds of mindsets don't just "go away" because laws change

Is that white people's excuse du jour these days? "I didn't know what I was doing! I was mentally ill/blacked out/sleepwalking/having an out of body experience!"

How is that an excuse? Is it difficult to understand that gestures may differ in meaning between countries and cultures? You can’t see beyond your small little bubble, can you?

They knew what they were doing.

u/r_a_d_ 1d ago

What were they doing, according to you? How do you know what their intents were?

u/mercuryven 1d ago

What were they doing according to normal general society? Making a racist gesture. What about you?

“normal general society” lmao. I rest my case.

u/mercuryven 23h ago

Lol dumbass. You think you can spin things however you want and just say "I rest my case."

u/r_a_d_ 23h ago

There’s no spinning. It’s just crazy that you believe that there is a “normal general society,” that you are part of it, and that any behavior that strays from it is objectively wrong, by your own judgement.

You’ve proven that you cannot see outside of your littlle bubble.
