DA

This isn’t an American-only type of backwards thinking though. And it’s not some common way of thinking for all Americans either, any more than it is common in other countries. There are racists for sure, but not everyone in America is racist or defaults to racism, nor projects racism on the rest of the world. Or would think something as mindbogglingly stupid as “East Asians are white-adjacent”. I know you didn’t say outright that you believe all Americans think like this. But it does kind of feel like you’re implying it to me. It feels like you’re making a broad generalization of Americans to me.

There is racists in Europe as well, but it’s ridiculous to think everyone or even most people are racist there. So the anon you’re talking about is obviously an idiot who doesn’t know what they’re talking about. And shouldn’t speak on matters they don’t understand in regards to countries they don’t live in. So I’m not disagreeing that that anon is wrong for swooping in to say that.

NAYRT - IA with this. But as a non-American (possibly POC by some American standards) I also get what AYRT was talking about. The English-speaking internet is vastly populated by American people and sometimes it feels like they default to their own local views of racism and everyone who doesn't get them is Wrong and Bad and should be Cancelled even if they are willing to discuss and LEARN. So that's not making progress for anyone. That actively hurts people (like the 1st anon itt) including (or rather, particularly) non-whites who suffer racial discrimination.

Obviously that is not everyone in the US thankfully and obviously there are racist (not even "accidentally" racist - blatantly.) people elsewhere. It's usually the fandom kids who don't know better yet, but it can get pretty ugly and self-righteous.

I understand where you’re coming from, you have a good point.
