Basically people arguing on World of Warcraft LFG chat (on EU servers) about whether they should be racist to all Russians or just to hate the government, with people being like 'bUt I JuSt dOn'T uNdErStAnD wHy sO mAnY pEoPLe VoTeD fOr hiM'. I then chimed in and said all of the American war criminals running the country were also voted in, and then also said that 'if not for the balancing effect of Russia, the entirety of Africa, South America, Asia and the Middle East would look like Cambodia, Vietnam and Iraq, and who would stop us? Western Europe? lol'

Lots of angry responses and whispers from Western European players ensued, it was hilarious

    "Squeaky wheel gets the grease"

    The USA has an outsized cultural and media footprint so everyone knows we are racist as shit so the Europeans get to fly under the radar pretending like our racism isn't a direct descendent of their colonialism that created this fucking place.
