Chanting protests against a country? I’m sweaty, that’s actually a slur 💅

Protest an entire ethnic group and chant hate speech? Well that’s just a slogan I don’t see why you’d be so upset.

Literally us-foreign-policy

    In Washington, U.S. President Biden condemned the attacks as "despicable" and said they "echo dark moments in history when Jews persecuted".

    Hitler particles at the level where you accidentally blame Jews for the Holocaust

    Pogrom is when violence. When your dad got beat up in a bar fight? Pogrom.

    I love making words meaningless!

      Did somebody try to stop you from calling for the genocide of an entire ethnicity? That is actually a pogrom when they say to stop that

      Unfortunately, Israel is just an offshoot of the US, so it still reflects back.

      Huh?

      In most touristy places, Americans are actually desired as the best tourists because of their tipping culture.

      When I talk to employees of hotels, bars and restaurants, they are often a little disappointed that I'm not an American.

        American tourists are fucking DESPISED in every city in Europe because they are loud as fuck speaking 10x louder than literally everyone else nearby, have absolutely no social sense, and rude to boot.

        Businesses might like their money but the population fucking despises them.

        I’m just going off my personal experiences when I worked in Banff. Americans were by far the most obnoxious people I met there. But that could just be rich Americans, because that’s the types you get there.

        American tourists bring their sense of exceptionalism everywhere—loud, entitled, and completely oblivious to anything that isn’t centered around them. They are not liked in central europe. The only thing they know where I live is some kind of propaganda film about this place, but nobody here has accually seen it and nobody cares enough to tell them.

      To be clear, this is not applying it to skin color in this conversation but the fact that Israelis calling for a genocide is ok but criticizing Israel is being called a slur

      Whiteness is proximity to power. Crackerdom is correlated with some flesh tones, not caused by it.
