  Interesting exposition.
  Although it had pretty sarcastic and ironic humor, the story portrays an ongoing covert social
  problem, inherent to human beings (say what you will), each passing day more and more demonized.

  I think it's highly prejudicial to compare petty behavior with national socialistic fascist
  ideoly of pre-WW2 germany. Being son of a german myself, I often find myself being ridicularized
  by my so-called "friends" for what some germans did in the past. Sometimes the "jokes" get pretty
  agressive, with one or more of them screaming to everyone around that I hate jews without any
  reason.

  But what am I even talking about wtf

  That shit is out of line; you shouldn't tolerate it.

  I liked this. I expected people to starve but the actual ending was good too. More realistic
  moral.

  I think it's a question of why the tree was racist in the first place. If he grew up in some
  american slum or he would show aversion to blacks like those that grew up in european ghettos
  would hate gypsies.

  I don't really understand how teens on 4chan that grew up in a middle class family grow up racist.

  I don't. I stop awkwardly laughing along and just tell them they are just being assholes.

  It's not OK to discriminate against anyone based on their looks, like denying apples to black
  kids.
  But it's a shitty thing to do to mock someone of german ascent born in the 90's of being a Nazi,
  or saying "germans are nazis".

  Also, remembered this:
  Recently I've read in the news that it was discovered that a man from my country, a very
  respected and competent history teacher, had a nazi symbol pattern drawn on the bottom of his
  pool, in his home. It was stated he also collected some relics from nazi germany, such as medals
  and coins. He NEVER discriminated against anyone during class and outside, NEVER tried to justify
  the killings of innocents and was a fun guy who had a nice family. People said he was a great
  teacher.
  When this became known by the ones around him, people ostracized him, called him a nazi, despised
  him. An ex-student of his was interviewed, he said he would've never imagined that this could be
  true. He said he was profoundly dissapointed in his ex teacher and from now on disgusted by him.
  A news post in facebook about this gathered hateful comments, ranging from tons of people saying
  he should leave the country, be arrested and even killed!!

  Oh, the irony.

  Moral of the story: always be willing to give up your moral beliefs if it fucks with your income
  stream.

  Wow. This is fucking awful. Isn't this proof that people are practically brain-washed into being
  extremely intolerant to anything with the slightest whiff of BADNESS? There's nothing wrong with
  simply having a collection. I have a small interest in things like religion and radiation but it
  doesn't mean that I'm going to preach commandments or cause Chernobyl-like disasters.

  This happens with a lot of things. People who say things like this about religion, saying how
  it's evil etc, but then ironically we see the overlying cause for all of it in their responses,
  human nature, which no one is exempt from. And people will always try to blame human nature on
  something, anything but themselves, which causes most of the problems in the world.

  Are any of your friends Chinese or some shit?
  Because you could tear them a new asshole with some "jokes" if you wanted.

  Xenophobic rather than straight up racist. They aren't hating niggers mudslimes and gooks
  specifically, but more anything that is different.
