Group of black teens attacks a guy. Minor injuries. What's the reddit thread filled with?

"carry a gun" "cops on every corner" "animals"

what gets downvoted? me mentioning generational poverty.

death to the whites.

Edit: came back, didn't think this would blow up the way it did, but it has been hilarious how many bad takes are from people with an @ in their username. This hilarity is why i love HexBear.

I’ve lived abroad and can tell you that mayos from settler colonial countries like the US are way, way, waaaaaaaay more racist than euro mayo, not that the latter group isn’t also racist too. Maybe Australia and white South Africans are worse than the US, but not by that much. But yeah, American redditors who think that the US is a slightly flawed but basically perfect paragon of racial equality are delusional.

I've found that European mayo racism is the same, just directed at different targets. Ask a French person about the Polish, or Greeks, or the Roma. Or just Muslims in general.

bruh. there have been soccer games where europeans throw bananas at the black players and shit. and dont get me started on how they act if you bring up romani people around them, they sound indistinguishable from the worst southern racists i've ever met in my life.

fr*nch people think this about france as well, the gardeners are just as deranged and racist as their settler colonies.

yeah the settler colonial mentality is especially destructive and that's probably whats going on here. I mean its anecdotal but my experiences have been more or less the same as yours.
