Why should Polish people change their cultural norms for American history. Americans must adjust their culture to amend their wrongdoings. Yes we all have access to the internet. Yea it’s completely unnecessary. My point is that even though many may see it as wrong, that in Poland this doesn’t have the same connotations as in the US. There’s Polish users in here telling you this now, yet you want Eastern European cultures to use the internet to research American history and ideals and adapt their culture to American culture.
 

Talk about thinking you are the centre of the world. America has to adapt its thinking that nobody outside of America cares about American culture. Deal with your own history your way. America absolutely has to amend its behaviour and make retributions for its past use of black face. Polish people didn’t use black face to push white supremacy agenda for centuries. So why would it mean the same thing there?

I literally said I'm not American enough 

 

Blackface aside, Polish people are still some of the most racist in Europe. If anyone needs to adapt their thinking and behaviours, it's them. Why is it always Polish and Hungarian fans who make monkey noises when black footballers are on the pitch? And when it's not black people, it's Jewish people

Maybe you don't know blackface is racism, but it's still one of your country's favourite pastimes, that's when they're not making no go areas for gay people...

Nelly is black person?? Not???

Just disappointed, as a Katycat pls educate yourself. Anyways, disgusting however being it from polish, I am not surpised. The polish have a white nationalist and xenophobia problem, so it is expected. Don't get me started on a certain neo Nazi music Festival in a nearby certain country.

When I was a child and went to school, I remember how he harassed me for money and when I did not give it, he insulted me. Of course, I'm not saying everyone

Remember kids, when people from all-white villages tell you that people of color from multiracial societies are "too woke and screams racism at everything", they're just upset because they can't engage in blatant racist discourses with you like this one.

Was this supposed to help your argument? 
 

I always cackle when people try to claim Europeans aren’t racist and don’t understand the concept of racial differences. Then you put an ethnic person in front of them and they short circuit

THAT WAS NOTHING LIKE NELLY! this person is just mocking nelly, whether intentional or not. it's embarrassing and she looks stupid and is just doing some stereotypical black person who wants to be a rapper. I don't know what her intentions were but there's definitely some racism going on here.

 

i will say they at least did the blackface tastefully as opposed to the idiots who use straight up use black paint but she just looks stupid and i'd be super offended if I was Nelly. Like if you're just going to butcher the song like that then just stay the **** away from the song because she looks like a clown and then i see idiots in here saying "oh but the judges loved it" yeah stupid thats part of the issue here.

When I said the judges loved it. I’m NOT agreeing with them.

Nothing really but expect that shockingly a subset of Polish youth usually male like to cross the border alongside some girls from Sweden and III at the function.

Let give you a present , because I see you, oh hunny I see you.

 

Spoiler

That image Is of Roma tied to poles, because clearly you have some unresolved issues with this race of people.  Do you think in your heart believe that these people deserve to be repressed, oppressed, painted as monsters by the media and treated unfairly?

Another reminder that this site is a cesspool of racists, serves me right for entering threads of social/political content here, the takes are ......disappointing.

@Supervillain thoughts

[Xder]

People should be treated equally and not hurt others. don't steal, don't intimidate etc 

but imagine reverse thread would be zero interest 

[Specter]

Europeans when commenting on racial injustices in America: omg IMAGINE living there  AMERICA and RACISTS!1

 

Europeans when asked to not defend blackface or call for the mass arrests of Roma:

They don't deserve to be treated badly if they are good people and live honestly, but if they commit crimes they should be treated like everyone else. 

 

maybe I reacted too personally with that I didn't mean all people of this race (only the ones I met)

[Karla Cabello]

not this thread being both anti black and anti roma

Sorry sis, but this thread has a healthy discussion re: social norms and differences between American history with racism and their retributionary amendments to social norms that black people deserve and have fought for. The same social route has not taken place in Poland and we can’t simply state that this whole country and culture is outrightly and directly racist and when it didn’t experience the same social development with race as America due to its own history of colonialism and to be more specific - they do not have a social or racially abusive history with demeaning and utilising blackface to push a white supremacist agenda. 
 

As stated previously in this thread - black face is attributed directly to American history and not to Poland. To ask for the people there to react the same when they do not have the same generational trauma or lived experiences is absolutely ignorant. To ask the mods to ban people in this thread for expressing concern re: condemning a full country of people racists due to black faces awful history with America is downright wrong. I can’t see any racism in this thread - observational intelligence and objectiveness that goes beyond the reactionary learned behaviour of todays western culture is different to racism.
