Europeans who are racist (especially from the east, or countries which didn’t have colonies) are racist in the sense of staring at black people and trying to touch their hair.
Americans who are racist are racist in the sense they want to disenfranchise black votes, gerrymandered the hell of their districts and maybe enslave them in a federal prison for a minor drug offense. Because lynching is frowned upon these days.
It shows itself versus everyone specifically. There is no group of people persecuted based on their race by politicians, law enforcement, media and half the population like back people are in the US. Or brown Muslims in the US. Or transgender people in the US. Maybe in Poland, this last one, but i don’t think so.
Well, that’s kind of my point. If the worst thing is what some villages in the most hostile country are doing, shows that there is no systemic/institutional racism to the extent of the US.
Europeans will also be like British people treating Polish people like shit, or various flavours of white people from adjacent communities deciding the other white person needs to be struck from the earth.
Europeans can absolutely be violently racist. I mean, who do you think sold all those slaves to the US?
yeah exactly, we don’t need someone to have a different skin colour to be racist, that’s a simple man’s racism. us europeans only do the finest of racisms - normal people with normal white skin (my village) vs the weird people with a similar skin but their accents are kinda weird and scary (all the other villages, and especially that one village over there)

Both exist, but they are not the same.
You’re very blatantly underestimating the extent of European racism just because it shows itself less towards black people specifically.

In Europe roma people are discriminated against in a worse way
Any specific examples of laws or initiatives or just the hurt durr Roma poor that was inherited from reddit?
There are no laws, but for example in Hungary romas are segregated in countryside schools
Well, that’s kind of my point. If the worst thing is what some villages in the most hostile country are doing, shows that there is no systemic/institutional racism to the extent of the US.
Oh wait Romania is worse
Also look at North Macedonia
I looked at it. It’s north of Greece.
Romani?
That’s just strictly wrong. Never ask a European about the romani
That’s just strictly wrong, a a dead horse inherited from reddit, probably even older.
It’s a joke on reddit because every time they say it a European comes out of the wood works to prove the joke true.
And you extrapolate that to an entire continent. Good job.

(huge /j in case that wasn’t obvious)
And don’t ever mention the Romani, hoo boy.
Polish people are not a race…
Define “race” and then tell me that an anglo person is the same as an eastern European person.
This guy is Polish: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emmanuel_Olisadebe, I can define race however you want, Polish is not a race.
I said Polish because they are the group of easter Europeans that are most readily gone after in Britain. British is also not a race, by the way.
Ya stupid.
So… It’s not racist, you say?
No people are races. Jesus cantankering Christ. Race isn’t real, it’s pseudoscience.
