Americans do a lot of stupid things, but they are most likely to be self critical in this space. I think this meme should talk about Western Europe instead, because they have many problems, but they are so often never willing to accept criticism. They're quick to call the US racist, but in my experience, Europe has so much racism it's crazy it's viewed as this anti racist place.

Ask any "America is so racist" European about their thoughts on the Roma people

Or turks. Or Moroccans. Or Africans.

Or other Europeans. Damn Europeans, they ruined Europe!
