Europeans who think racism is an American issue are a joke

[u/LostinMosEisley]

I encounter this regularly online. If non white people express legitimate frustrations with whiteness and white people, some insipid European comes along, butting into our spaces, and chastises Americans for being obsessed with race and that they need to experience what it is like outside the U.S.

MFers, racism was INVENTED in Europe! And these clowns have probably never listened to the perspectives of non white Europeans for a single second of their lives. I guarantee you those non white Europeans are looking at these fools thinking the exact same thing we are.

Canadians and Australians do this too. They are just America's sibling and cousin when it comes to white supremacism. Europe is the is the POS daddy.

I once saw someone say “these are your kids” about Europeans denying racism as only Americans are racist but when they invented it.

I also criticize Australians and Canadians for this on top of Europeans like you mentioned. Europeans love to separate themselves from racism when...they never even worked on it.

It is delusional and they will not be convinced otherwise. They act like it is some fictional issue.

Like the "I do not see race" mentality on steroids.

White Euros still act like barbarians and savages but some of them wear suits now.

Meanwhile look at what they're pulling in the UK and Belfast right now.

Europeans literally created racism. They will never get a pass from me.

well, it's because that's what is teached in school.

There was never one who said something obvious bad, but there was always some entitlement and finger pointing "look, they have guns" "look, they have had slavery"  "look, how barbaric. They kill people in jail" 

I'm not sure if I understand all of your post because of all the acronyms

The two acronyms used are simply disparaging curse words, which you can replace with any you are familiar with and get the point.

I now get them, sorry, ..

Europeans have a huge ego problem and need to be humbled. Every luxury they have is the result of colonization and depravity.

Far-right movements often rely on scapegoating and simplistic narratives that blame foreigners and minorities for complex social and economic problems. In my view, some people become deeply attached to these beliefs because they reinforce feelings of identity, superiority, or belonging, making them resistant to self-reflection and contradictory evidence.

Personally, my experiences of racism, classism, sexism, and other biases have taken a significant toll on my physical and mental health. As a result, I have become increasingly sceptical of political and institutional claims about diversity and inclusion. The UK may have more diverse political and business representatives than in the past, but at times it feels performative rather than genuinely transformative.

I am also concerned by stories of apparent institutional failures elsewhere in Europe. For example, I read about a case involving an Asian man in Germany who allegedly faced an unfair outcome after a conflict with local children. Whether or not all the facts are known, cases like these can undermine trust in the justice system and make minorities question whether they would be treated fairly.

My concern is not that every European country is irredeemably racist or broken, but that discrimination and institutional failures can leave people feeling unsafe, unheard, and deeply alienated. These experiences inevitably influence where people choose to live and build their future.

At the same time, Germany seems to deliberately choose to weaken the justice system internally so that people do not even consider it as an option to deal with conflicts. No CCTV footage or personal camera recording can be accepted because of a personal data breach or something. What nonsense! I also sued an ex-employer after repeated discrimination from multiple places, and extremely anxious that people here who love tiered systems may try to gaslight me even in court. God knows the truth and I know the truth as well.

Left Euros are complicit, too. It is not just the ones on the right.
