    Charity = | = to empathy. I live in an area where I can go 15 min either direction and meet up with poorer families. The hatred they spew for certain groups of people is mind boggling

      Amazing how it’s all so easily wrapped up and explained away (lol, only in your own mind) when you simply completely ignore the circumstances and systems that create a situation like you describe…

      You have to remember, in leftist culture it’s socially acceptable to be prejudiced and rude about rich people. I see this daily in online threads, people need something/someone to ralley against.

      One example of this is you can’t be racist about Germans, french or Americans but god forbid you say similar things about an African nation.

        I see this often, but still don’t understand how a national identity = race, could you please explain what I’m missing?

          You’re not missing anything it’s just pedantry regarding the wording of xenophobia/racism. They were used incorrectly but I think you knew exactly what I meant.

          For example in western culture mocking a German accent will raise less eyebrows than mocking a Zimbabwe accent for example. Whether this is because of wealth or another reason is up for discussion though.

          That act is not racist or xenophobic but will probably be described as a noun which isn’t coming to me now. But that’s not necessarily important to the point I’m making
