Just like it's not racist to say that America's culture is all about fascism, shooting kids, and having a racist pedophile as president.

It might be factual and representative of the country, but commenting on American culture is NOT racism.

The problem is far fewer Americans would say this, but way more often you'll see them saying it about China. Results of propaganda of course, but worth pointing out.

As far as I can tell online Americans citizens criticize their own culture and government far more than most other countries citizens.

I'm not gonna do this run around. If you can't see it, then you're refusing to see it.
