got a lecture like 2000 effing words long about how I'm wrong, uneducated, an idiot, etc.
Ironic, given that the reason you made this post to begin with was based off a recent post on r/quityourbullshit where you posted to someone, where you do nothing but accuse people of being uneducated and using more gaslighting than the global emissions.
Perhaps you're just so ingrained in a racist ideology that you consider what most people think of as racist to be normal.
You are just angry that the cultural context of a use of language is different in another country than your own. Unless, of course, the entirety of r/quityourbullshit is racist now?
