Thanks for normal civilised answer. My attacks are not ad hominem, I just work with what I have, in this context, your comments and how you interact with people on here. Just seriously, before you accuse someone of attacking you, really take a look at the way you present yourself and more importantly, make assumptions about other people.

Just to talk about Europe, we are far from perfect, and issues such as slavery, rights or immigration are not exlusive to American history (I hope I do not have to talk about what is happening right now in Europe or how many civilisations with slavery existed throughout the history). There are many ways different European countries, governments and citizens fight against racism (or are racist themselves), what I was happy about is most of the people and activists I know, take the fight against racism to the fields where it actually matters, not to the field of entertainment. If entertainment shapes Americans so much and is so important, I feel sorry for you. If someone hates POC or homosexuals just becuase of the way they are portrayed in TV shows, I truly feel sorry for him. I appreciate your discourse about different terms, but you are missing the most simple point I tried to outline - most people do not go through family trees of actors, if a character on screen looks white, the character (not actor) is white. Same goes for people on streets. That is why I said that I would be careful with talking about Kane as POC, I am not saying I am complitely right, but neither are you.

I can also say that your logic is broken since you assume everyone adjusts his way of thinking and writing regarding these issues to the American standards. Why? Because you are from there? Because the show is made and aired in the US? The show is watched by many people around the world. We do not have to follow your standards and just because something is perceived some type of way in your country does not make the rest of the world obligated to think the same, and does not make everyone else wrong (even if they are wrong in American context or by American standards).
