Hahaha...it's clear that was not the overall point of the the thread. It was a personal gripe regarding groups that have suffered oppression in recent history. You looked for just what you got here. LOL.
Uh; even the Romans treated the English people like dirt way back in the day. I think when it gets down to it: ALL of us have gotten the shaft different times in history.

Actually what is clear is that if you don't like what is presented you simply change your perception to match your beliefs.
I said what I meant but you had to say, "no, here is what you really think...".
Maybe that is one reason why our country is having so much trouble...people who build fantasy worlds when the cold, hard truth is too much for them to handle.

This is why certain comments in this threas bother you so. So many generational Americans are in denial about their history.
Yes, "soft", as in "incapable of instinctively having a physical, violent reaction when confronted with legitimate but uncomfortable questions about my culture" or "soft" as in not wishing to lose my job because of the threat of a lawsuit filed by a member of a fragile, protected group whose ancestors were persecuted but whose contemporary members are merely coasting".
So, yeah...."soft".
Are you incapable of having normal discussions with people that don't involve controversial topics? I think not.
Why would you want to "confront" (your word) someone about their culture anyway? Haven't you anything better to do?
Lose your job? Is that where you'd really like to "confront" people...at your place of employment? But you won't do it because you're scared to lose your job?
If I'm "coasting" (again...your word), then let me coast and mind your own business.
