Lol! I did no such thing. It’s just an easy target on Lemmy. Even if it is in your history, I can assure you it’s in many other people’s too. I was also thinking about an Alabamian generalization, but figured Isreal was more topical.
But now that you’ve outed yourself: shame on you ya dirty racist! 🤣
Oh, I misread your post then. I thought you were accusing me of diving into your history. I haven’t, so I couldn’t say what you have said. However, I never accused you of saying anything in the first place. Without that, your comments make no sense.
Then we agree that saying “fuck Italians” or “fuck Israelis” is pretty racist, since it is an unmotivated and generalized insult to a whole group of people identified by their country of origin?
I think I understand where your coming from, but I’m uncomfortable with blurring the distinction between national boarders and race. After all, I think we both agreed that different human races aren’t real, while nations are much more concrete. If we label all generalization as racism, I fear that it waters down the meaning of the word, just like when people call anything more authoritarian than them a Nazi.
However, we can definitely agree that sweeping generalizations are bad. Instead of spreading hate in the world, we should treat others how we would wish to be treated.
To be quite honest, I did some searching of race and racism before even my first response to you just be sure. I still dont agree with you and neither did what I found. Furthermore, unless there’s some votes not federating to my instance, nobody on here agrees with your initial claim.
Mate, I do not care at all if randoms on the internet agree that saying “fuck Italians” is racist. It is, period.
However you came here saying “against the Italian race?” and I needed to educate you, because it would be a big problem if people start thinking that hating a whole population isn’t racist because races don’t exist or some other contemporary nazifascist reason.
Yes and since you have time to check my comments go and find me where I’ve said “fuck Israelis”. I’ll wait.

You still haven’t showed me where I was racist to Israelis

That’s why you need to look up what “racism” is and why it is a real thing.

That’s all. No need to thank me.
