Ignorant. It dosent "really" need to be a race dude. America is made up of different people with different backgrounds. so by making fun of them you're making fun of there race despite if there American or not. So therefore deep.in is right about this thread.

I'm not an American but those videos are too racist. Those videos are only symbols of the world's dumbness.

Heh... dumb Americans... heh... now we feel superior! AHH! we're starting to realize that we are all human beings! And we're not that much different from each other!!!!.... heh, dumb Australians...heh... *sigh*, that was close...

Some argue that although "race" is a valid taxonomic concept in other species, it cannot be applied to humans.[3] Many scientists have argued that race definitions are imprecise, arbitrary, derived from custom, have many exceptions, have many gradations, and that the numbers of races delineated vary according to the culture making the racial distinctions; thus they reject the notion that any definition of race pertaining to humans can have taxonomic rigour and validity.[4] Today most scientists study human genotypic and phenotypic variation using concepts such as "population" and "clinal gradation". Many contend that while racial categorizations may be marked by phenotypic or genotypic traits, the idea of race itself, and actual divisions of persons into races, are social constructs.[5][6][7][8][9][10][11]

Racism.

This isn't racism.

"Sally Is an American.
Sally is stupid.
Americans are Stupid."

You cannot come to this conclusion based on those videos. You use one to generalize the whole, that in itself weakens your argument that Americans are stupid. A proper set would be:

"Sally is an American.
Sally is stupid.
Sally is a stupid American."

This gives consideration to exceptions without generalizing.

some of them are, some of them not.. Its dumb people in every country.

There calling one whole nation "stupid"

The topic is called "Are Americans Stupid?" then shows some video making fun of some ignorant people whom happen to be American. How is it NOT racist?

[XemnasXD]

Dumb people are everywhere...only in America it seems most ppl take pride in it

[mosiac]

only in America it seems most ppl take pride in it

And where are you drawing this conclusion from?

Exactly, one whole nation. A nation composed of many different races, not one.

America is a Nation.
Racism is hatred or discrimination aimed at another "race."
Race is a social construct created by an understood consensus within a culture.
Occasionally Bigotry, Prejudice, and Racism are interchanged. Each word is distinct and should not be used interchangeably.

America is not a Race of people but a Nation composed of many Races, therefore mockery (in an attempt to spurn feelings of inferiority) of its people cannot be taken as racism, but can be seen as its lesser cousin: Bigotry, caused by Ignorance. Satman's post is littered with sarcasm.

@Mosiac, he did not make a definitive statement. It seems leaves it (the statement) ambiguous enough to not need questioning. As what seems to be a truth may be false. It varies from person to person.
