    "Asia is the most racist because I went there once and people stared at me and asked me for photographs"

    It's funny but I remember when I went to an Asian country once I was actually eager to get myself photographed with a mall security guard all because he was a mall security guard armed with a combat shotgun; it was the coolest thing my eighteen year old self had ever seen. My sister was originally like "<evilsandwichman> no!", but then she also wanted a photograph with him. Dude was a mall security guard with a combat shotgun, honestly coolest thing I'd seen by that point in my life.

      I have not met a single mall security guard that I would be comfortable possessing a combat shotgun, but I'm glad you had fun I guess

      I've seen mall security guards with full on submachine guns and assault rifles like the Beretta MX4 and various Galil/R4/R5 variants, along with body armour.

      South Africa is something else at times.

      I swear, white people made that shit up just so they can mental masturbate about the idea of other humans viewing them as literal gods.

      I have never met a single person from anywhere in Asia do that while in college, and the university I went to is pretty popular for international students.
