Comment on What are some countries you’ve visited that shocked you with unexpected friendliness?
BumpingFuglies@lemmy.zip 4 days agoI tried to find the correct word or phrase to use, and the consensus seems to be “cultural racism”, so I guess it’s technically a kind of racism, even though it doesn’t directly relate to race. “Culturism” would be a more accurate word, I think.

So it is so similar to racism that people call it cultural racism.

It’s as similar to racism as any prejudice is. It’s just a lazy term coined, I’d bet, for the sake of quick understanding within the context of its era, rather than for semantic accuracy.

You just wrote it is technically racism.
That is the whole problem hear. You argue semantics while I argue the concept.
“You are technically right but you didn’t say it like I want you to say it so I attack you” is kinda the whole threat here :D

Look, dude, I don’t have the energy to teach you in addition to my own kid at home. Improve your reading comprehension, reread my last comment, and maybe we can have a reasonable discussion.
