Wow you putting it like that:

TL;DR: Americans are stupid because they are shameless

That’s literally it. You are so right.

I cannot count the amount of times that “annoying uncle/dad” is spewing racist/sexist/uneducated bullshit and everyone in the family feels like they just have to let them say it.

We really need to normalize pointing out stupid pov’s with harmful consequences.

This also reminds me of the common experience in the US of some random white dude with a megaphone screaming “Jesus saves blablabla” in public places. Why the fuck do we deal with that shit?
