    I thought this comic was super racist and got confused about the upvotes. Then I read the comments.

    I’m way too European for this shit.

      Nah, I just thought it was sarcastic. Like the Segregation-Era average racist attitute of: “Oh, there’s not too many black people to taint the water supply” type of thing, and this comic is pointing out the racism, not being racist it self.

      Then I read the comments and apparantly, it had something to do with funding.

        Or more specifically, it’s pointing out the systemic racism in the United States.

        Is this a problem in some EU countries? I never heard of it before.
