That's racist!

Lol at the last sentence...of course that's wrong, wtf. This writer is a nutjob

How is that wrong? 9 am isnt 9 am where you are from?

Going up to foreigners and lecturing them with some "in OUR country" BS is trash. Shouldn't be hard to tell that that's rude

And if you're saying 9 am is 9 am everywhere, then you're undermining him yourself, because the phrase "in our country" would then be completely unnecessary and just thrown in for negative effect

So you go to the Middle East and you prop your feet up and show the bottom of them to people sitting in front of you..... if a local comes up to you and says “in our country that’s incredibly rude and equivalent to someone in your country giving them the finger”...... that sounds horribly racist to me

Yeah, that's exactly what "in our country, 9am means 9am" is, definitely just trying to helpfully inform them and not being a passive-aggressive ***hole. You know better than this

Have you ever had a meeting with someone from SA? They don't show up on time as a rule. And you don't say ****, because "in their country 900 means 930".

It's funny because you're now advocating the position of respecting other cultures' view of time, aka what everyone in this thread is complaining about in the article

Public University’s ‘Diversity Training’: Expecting People To Show Up On Time Is Racist

I saw mentioned that young men tend to be late to work nowadays because it takes additional time to get ready as they have to shave their crotch and nut sack every morning.

Is that what you were like in college? An international student is late to a study group meeting and you lead with (1) "I demand an apology!" and (2) "That's not how we do things in this country."? Who does that, other than this crazy-ass writer?

The gist of the article is "1 and 2 aren't recommended behaviors?? THAT'S OUTRAGEOUS!!"

Not seeing that anyone but the author called it "racist" either, so the clickbait title is just as garbage as the content. I know that's a shock.

Basically they are on my time which trumps their time, US time, SA time, BLM time, I don't give a **** time.

No I didn’t care what others did. I’m challenging the presumption that all cultures are “equal” and should be respected or else you’re “racist”. Its ridiculous to think that

That and the six holidays they get a month. There’s one for every saint apparently.

My FIL worked in Saudi Arabia, he said if you could get four hours of work from one of the locals in a day that was a big deal. Most of the labor is done by Indians and Pakistanis, the Saudis confiscate their passports and make them work to earn it back.

Sounds like they’re sending the children of color to die in the virus infested schools.

So a “white supremacist” slaps a white woman and it’s racist?

Apparently, screaming I'm a "white supremacist" isn't enough for the Trumpers to claim your racist.

 

[Carl Pickens]

He’s racist because he explicitly states multiple times he’s a white supremacist.

More often than not those two things go hand in hand.

He’s the kind of individual that 99.9% of people absolutely despise. He reminds me of a guy that lived in my neighborhood when I was a kid. He was a biker and if we were near the street or in it when he drove by, he’d always yell something at us like “get your ass out of the road”.... or worse. He lived two streets over and one day me and a buddy had ridden our bikes to the lake to go fishing. We caught a ton of bluegill and brought them home and cleaned them. We put all the guts and mess in a garbage bag and was riding to the trailer park to throw it in the dumpster so it wouldn’t stink up our trash. Well..... Mr. Bikera-hole had parked his truck on the street and the passenger side window was down. We ended up putting the bag in the passenger side floorboard. The truck sat there several days in the hot sun and the bag was still in it. Me and my friend swore to silence because we thought he’d kill us if he ever found out it was us. You could smell the stink when you’d ride past it

My understanding is these were two control groups, both made up with "furniers". It wasnt some random group of tourist that got the nationalist Karen treatment. It sounded like Alejandro here was in charge. Some people didnt meet expectations that were clearly laid out, so they got a but chewing.

I am sorry responsibility offends you. But that's how adults operate.

I never understood this. If it's going to be 10 before you get there tell them 10. Or at least say "sometime after 9"

I dont think its unreasonable given specifics to expect specific results. If instructions were given generally then this wouldnt be an issue.
