Making a claim about the culture one is familiar with does not exclude that the same might be true in other cultures.

- clusterfish 6y agoTry and say something unflattering about a culture you're familiar with "that also applies to other cultures", you'll be burned at the stake as racist / xenophobic / insensitive / etc. Except when that culture is "the west" aka white people, then that's ok I guess.
- tchaffee 6y agoThat's not true. As one example, I have many Chinese friends and they are never called any of those things when they point out something negative about their culture. If you are getting called a racist that often, the problem just might not be other people.
