Well this was like at most 2-4 years earlier than that, so around the same time.
I’m not even American. I’m Finnish. I don’t think you’d understand how prevalent racism here is. Like even the stereotypical hippie girls, you know? Like it’s a sort of somewhat casual racism, but it’s very deep in the society.
My therapist who’s British originally told me how he was in a sauna one day and the discussion turned to something political and that the people just threw out the n-word so casually. And this was like just this year, uh, last year I mean.
Yeah the “sand n” word is used her as well, pfff.
Like genuinely I’ve gotten into a lot of trouble for calling people out for those things. Which is like… honestly. I get looked down on for saying that we shouldn’t use racial slurs? Like genuinely, you’ll get more disgusted looks in Finland by saying “you shouldn’t use the n-word” then you would by saying the n-word. Perhaps it’s different in the capital area and the younger gens? I fucking hope it is.
