There is a sliver of truth to this in that the stuff said in public in some European countries wouldn’t fly in the US. It doesn’t absolve the smugass American r*dditors, though.
There’s also a constant pity party going on with these people acting like the majority of
is posting ”unlimited genocide on Amerikkka” or something, when the most they probably see is ”American healthcare sucks” and other takes even most libs won’t disagree with.
What stuff whould be unacceptable to say in USA
Have you ever seen a US stadium break out with monkey chants?
When my black friend went to Italy people literally made monkey noises at her. In Rome. If you did that in a Klan town people would be like “Yo wtf that’s not cool”
The average Euro will set off every
in a 10 mile radius the moment you ask them about Roma
Anti-immigration ”foreign hordes are threatening us” or ”replacement” type stuff. Although looking at how even the Good Guys are harping on about ”securing the border” in the US, not so sure about this anymore.
I think we underestimate how blatantly racist the American fascist movement has gotten, even in the mainstream. I usually don’t bother to ever hear the stuff Trump is saying other than the funny things that get memed on here, but if you go and listen to how he talks about immigrants it’s not dissimilar to the worst of how Europeans talk about migrants and Roma. It’s just as bad in the US as it is in Europe in my experience.
Different conditions.
America is mostly immigrants. Europe is still majority indigenous. You can’t expect those to have the same exact attitudes; that would be pure idealism.
Another thing is the relationship to the Muslim minority: France is 10% Muslim, the UK 5.8%, the USA just 1.1%, so they’re not going to have the same attitude towards Islam. Islam is a humdrum daily reality to most Europeans.
There was an example of this when Sadiq Khan was elected mayor of London.
British press has headlines like: Sadiq’s got it as expected.
USA press was like: London now has a MUSLIM mayor!!!
Lmao in what world is that unacceptable to say in America???
A lot of racists in the US are spineless, chickenshit cowards. They don’t think of themselves as racist, only that they have “justifiably” racists opinions. This means they know not to say certain things, especially in the presence of non-whites. Of course, they will shout slurs if they feel they can get away with it or if they think they’re surrounded by enough of their fellow racists.
Racists in the US tend to do things that are the equivalent of “I’m not touching you” while their finger is inches away from your face. They will stalk non-whites/call the police, get confrontational by saying “What are you doing here?” and so on. It’s obviously racist behavior, but hidden behind dog whistles.
