It’s not racist but it is very, VERY true that the United States has an obesity problem.

Why do you think I made that comparison lol

That’s identity politics for you. Don’t belong to the groups which are considered oppressed? You are fair game to be made fun of or insulted.

Eastern Europeans are ok to make fun of on Lemmy. Didn’t you get the official list?
JackOfAllTraits@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Eastern Europeans are ok to make fun of everywhere because West Europeans have a superiority complex and us over here have white skin.

No there’s just a lot to make fun of
It applies the other direction too

I have to assume you’re not from Europe, otherwise you’d know how wildly inappropriate that sounds. As a West European, there’s a lot of prejudice against Eastern Europeans. Brexit was partially about Polish immigrants

Complains about racism. “West Europeans have a superiority complex”. So you actually aren’t against stereotypes? Or are stereotypes okay as long as they don’t target you?
