    There's a 30% chance it's just the most inane, common, and uncontroversial observation ever but the person saying it thinks the most wack shit should also be normal to say.

      30%? I give it 90%

      In my experience, people (including me) who say truly problematic stuff usually just say it without any warnings or pretense

    "...these days this might be problematic but I think that China isn't the aggressor on the world stage but it's actually because the US is intentionally escalating with them because they want a pretext for starting another major war."

      Or terminally Italian. Even literal Italians to whom i've made a good pineapple pizza for are curious and say "look at that that's not terrible". The only ones who protest are the fash-adjacent gastronationalists who tie food that is the product of exchange, trade, and history, to some nativist, traditional knowledge inseparable from the piece of land they're standing on.
