    What cheapens the issues of prejudice is actively participating in it, thus normalizing it.

    Justifying the resentment of an entire group based on the actions of some isn’t bringing them down a peg. It’s just just perpetuating negatively, at best.

      Nah, knockin us for going on about “Murica #1” isn’t on the same level as the actual prejudice against the Roma for example.

        Didn’t say it was, dosen’t make it right. Weird thing to support, though, tbh.

            No, I said supporting prejudicial views normalizes it and thus exacerbates it. I didn’t say all prejudices were equal. But, continue to support it if you want. Maybe I will too, seems healthy.

              See you are kinda doing it again. I was explaining why Americans are the focus of frustration but you want to be reductive about it and just make it all flat prejudice. That frame work puts it on equal footing with actual serious prejudices.
