It's interesting to watch language evolve.

Racist: bias against PoC

Race-blind: no bias on the basis of race

Antiracist: bias against non-PoC (perceived to be "anti"racist because it goes against historical racism against PoC)

Please note this language change is only for the US

Considering how aggressively the US is exporting its culture: forget it.

I guess that's true, but I must say that in my direct vicinity there is a lot of anti-US sentiment, especially on their politics and culture "indoctrination" of other west countries. I'm a student in the NL

I'm from (east) Germany and over here it's kinda mixed. Most people have a sort of passive acceptance for american cultural imports, but many also dislike large parts of it.

As an American, I hope more people see us as a warning, rather than something to aspire to.

I can't even watch Shark Tank anymore (was a guilty pleasure), because I'm tired of hearing about 'the american dream'.

Adding nationalistic flamewar to the race flamewar you've already been fomenting is seriously not ok. Please stop posting flamebait to HN.
