I agree with this completely, for what it’s worth. The thing I objected to in the comment above was the ‘we/they just think differently and it’s not knowable’ attitude, which is dehumanizing as fuck. I would hope people are interested in learning why other people act and react the way they do, and understand that there are cultural and historical influences on that. And to the point of not assuming American reactions are right: we’re so screwed up we don’t even realize we’re still reacting to our own colonization even after being colonizers for centuries.
