    ok so i already mentioned that im born in france but the thing i noticed is that i was never viewed as a foreigner, now you might say yeah obviously but the thing is they thought of the arabs and even black people as foreigners even tho they have family who lived there for 3 or 4 generations.

    i always found this so weird!!!

    Your friends dont have a very good grasp of geography

    You know why that is. It's a racial thing


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,563 ✭✭✭karlog


    E.g you see a caucasian person walking next to a hispanic person. You assume one is irish and one is spanish. You hear them speak to each other in english, the caucasian has a Polish accent and the hispanic has a thick Dublin accent.

    Turns out the one you thought was Irish is actually Polish and the one you thought was Spanish is Irish.

    Dont think it's weird at all thats just the way most people think.

    Edit: it is a racial thing as above^ says
