And here I thought that when people said that we should stop affirmative action because it's not fair that some people can get into colleges while african americans can and people saying that "Being white is being oppressed" because they're no longer the majority in American was the last straw.
The earthquake and subsequent tsunami have shown me how disgusting, as a people, we can be. True, there are millions of us that are wonderful human beings. But the fact that even some people can be stupid enough to put their hateful opinions out there (let's not even count the ones that feel it but say nothing) show that we, as a country, are not the greatest in the world. Hell, we claim to be "land of the free and home of the brave" but for certain people, and damn if anyone but those certain people are going to allow anyone else trying to show them up.
And you're right. While the racist disgusting assholes despicable, the fact that people can see Japan (or any country, for that matter) as solely a place for objects is disgusting. The people who are upset because their favorite show might be canceled ... ugh.
Basically, a giant WORD to everything you said, and our country's opinions can be really disgusting at times. Incredibly racist at times.
