I can't speak to Europe, but contrasting the milquetoast euphemism "American racial tensions" against a picture of Hitler seems to be going really easy on the United States.
The point is to whitewash America's racism, it's okay because the Europeans also are a bit racist. Don't try to compare how similar or different it is, that would destroy their take.
Idk, ask a European about Muslims and all of a sudden I'm talking to my grandparents.
Read the Koran, trust
or, listen to some Imams from today. Pick any Islamic State Imam and listen to them. It won't take long
(they even speak English you can find their mosque videos on Youtube, pick one)
Ask an American about Obama and see how welcoming of Muslims they are. (Yes Obama is not Muslim, that's the point)
Hashtagnotalleuropeans
"A bit" is an understatement. Europe is just as bad.
Yes and? That's missing the point and falling directly into what the OP wants
Can't let OP get away with pointing out racism
LMAO, there's literally someone in this thread JAQing off trying to defend anti-Romani racism. Even on reddit, it usually takes longer for someone to start defending American racism.
