    I thought 9/11 exposed that?

    People attacking Hindus wearing turbans thinking they were Islamic terrorists.

      Also the Irish +100 years ago. It’s as American as apple pie unfortunately.

        Which is extra ironic, because apples are native to Asia.

            Ahh yes, Malus Cupertino. How could I forget. Prized for their disease resistance and unixy flavor. Too bad they don’t pollenize other varieties.

          I rarely downvote, but this is one of the few comments that are truly unproductive and meaningless. You earned it.

            … Thanks, I guess? Does it come with a cash prize? Or just Internet Points?

              Internet points since they’re of equal value.

        Probably more accurate, I only show my own ignorance of other culture for not having better specifics.
