Is there anything more American than being an old fat white guy who hates women of color?

That might be this year's most racist "fuck racism" comment yet.
Edit: And it's getting upvoted... We deserve every fucking thing we get lol
Why? It doesn't say or imply anything about white people, or that white people are racist. It just says that a white person who is racist is very cliche typical American. So it's an anti US comment, but it's not racist (as it doesn't say anything about white people that aren't racist, they're not just "typically American".

If you sub white for Jewish, racist for greedy, and American for Israeli?
Like, I'm not here to defend white people. I genuinely don't care. Just your argument is presented as the comments structure is what intrinsically makes it not racist, and I don't know if it's the case. I think it's still just a punching up thing. I think you can re-use the structure and be pretty problematic.

The statement "kissing my lovely wife", but we're switching out "wife" with "dog's butthole".

Thank God. I don't think any of them want your help.

Here we go again 🙄

Both obvious lies.

Yeah, because changing words changes meaning. Context matters.
That doesn't mean that it's racist to call out white racists, any more than it's antisemitic to criticize the genocidal apartheid regime in charge of Israel or sexist to criticize the unhinged congresswoman from Georgia, Perjury Greene.
It's saying negative things about people based only on race/ethnicity and throws skin colour in there just for extra points.
It's very literally the perfect example for what racism is defined as, "discrimination and prejudice against people based on their race or ethnicity"
I really don't care because people deal with this shit every day, but I think it's pretty fucking funny because the commenter has gone full circle with it. I'm not even American and was like, "Whoah..."
Maybe if you substituted race and skin colour you'd get it. Though, if you're having to do that...yeeeesh. self-reflection time.

We were glad when we got rid of'em. You took'em in, you deal with the fallout.

As a german, born and living in the region Trumps family originated from, I officially distance us, Germany and Rhineland-Palatine, from Family Trumpf!
You still have Julia Klöckner to answer for!
Who? Edit: /s
Head of Nestlé's marketing department
Didn’t Trump claim to be of Swedish descent and then suddenly changed to German? Or was that his dad that did that?
It could have been when people started bringing up his and his father's racism, and that his father was arrested while marching with the KKK. And reports that the only book he ever read and keeps by his bed is Mein Kampf.
But it could have been something else ...
He's just saying this outrageous stuff to be in the headlines and therefore the center of attention.
He’s just ~~saying this outrageous stuff~~ being weird to be in the headlines
And why is he insistently trying to darken his complexion with makeup.
The man applies color to his face like Al Jolson in The Jazz Singer

Trump wears more makeup than 99% of women. He’s so weird.
And if I recall, his tiny little bones were also spurs... Curious.
As a Scott can I officially distance us from him while we're at it
