racism? they seem to have fun mutually

it looks like abuse of power/wealth more than racism

it's quite the opposite of what we see in the USA with people publicly screaming the N word, police and job profiling

it's also exactly what the UK is been doing in Nigeria for years, they are a little bit more sneaky about it tough

and more openly what the west did in South Africa, a little bit more political :)

and let's not talk about indonesia


This is a weird take to me. The stuff in these videos is on par with how Europeans treated Africans for a couple of centuries. The fact that racism is angrier or more violent in other regions doesn't make this stuff any less racist.

Lest we forget that "racism" in the West was a later development that followed and serve to justify economic and political exploitation.


Cheng literally calls Africans savages in one of his videos. It’s still racist despite your whataboutism.
