Why do Europeans want to defend blackface this badly?

I’d argue that many European cultures are more ethnocentric. But you’re correct that American society is extremely race obsessed and likes to apply our own ****** up history to the rest of the world.

[bad guy]

America, the most diverse country in the world, is the most ethno-centrist now? 

 

That would be France, Japan, China, etc. that make it very uncomfortable to merge in their societies if you are not one of them. Not to mention all the other countries in Europe where the most diversity they have is people of different religions.

 

The answer is no.  

[Helios]

No, if anything Americans are constantly being forced to face and acknowledge their own biases against people of other ethnicities meanwhile other countries are blissfully ignorant and extremely racist against anyone who doesnt look or speak like them and they like it that way.

What the **** is this thread that's basically trying to defend blackface??? doesn't matter where you live or where you come from, it's 2023 and it should be known that blackface is not okay in the slightest 

Wait i didnt read the OP  My lazy ass.  I thought it wasabout ethnocentrism 
Yes. Blackface should never be allowed. Black communities all over the world hate it.  Should be banned worldwide.

Going back to the thread
Yes USA is very ethnocentrist. Some Americans live in a bubble of Cultural Colonization sometimes.
Here in my country theyre very disrespectful of our cultures and customs and people are gettin tired specially cause they call the food of my country bland.

I'm not entertaining your idea about blackface

 

But yes the Americans usually think the whole world revolves around them and their culture/beliefs = standards for everyone else

[Phaunzie]

Ooops, I thought it said eurocentric. Ethnocentric easy, Japan is literally an ethnostate so they are most ethnocentrists. Half Japanese tend to get ostracized, and mixing with other race isn't looked at in a good light. Also if you live in japan, you will be forced to conform to their way of life or say goodbye to social life.

 

The problem with your question is that North America can't ethnocentric because literally America is collection of different cultures & ethnicities living together. American isn't a ethnicity, unless you are native American. Americans are just overly prideful, arrogant for no reason and like to think they are center of the universe. It is why everyone hates U.S.A the world police because y'all refuse to not mess with other countries.

The answer will always be europeans.

[Gwendolyn]

Europeans love never accepting the fact there is anti-blackness in blackface and there always will be. next f'cking question

[Pop Life]

The way OP could have just said they're fine with anti-blackness but decided to waste everybody's time with that essay instead

[Riverbank]

The mental gymnastics to simply say "PLEASE let us wear blackface"

 

Y'all are crazy

[KillingYourCareer]

They're always trying to impose their cultural standards on other countries, and considering their political and economic power it's normal they have this mindset, they just need to understand the world outside doesn't always work the same.

[Armani?]

No, Asian countries are very ethnocentric lol

Do you know how ironic this sounds considering Europe's well-documented history of imposing cultural standards on other countries through colonialism? It's hilarious how bad some of y'all want to be oppressed

[worldwide angel]

the way some european atrlers project so much is amusing yet disturbing 

 

lets say americans are uniquely ethnocentrist....

where do you think they got it from

 

there are way too many of you willing to propagate the myth that europe

is some utopia while actively minimizing the impacts of colonialism and

slavery 

 

i can't believe y'all saw people telling you blackface is bad 

and tried to villainize us in the process. and y'all aren't slick

we know what you truly mean when you complain about 

"americans" after being called out on your racism
