It’s not racism to point out that a flight from the east coast of the US to the west coast is the exact same as a flight from Lisbon to Oslo. Physics don’t bend according to flags. I’m just pointing out that this idea is the product of US exceptionalism and the arbitrariness of the human conceptualization of what a country is. France is as large as California. But being in the US doesnt mean California is magically larger. You’re just deciding to compare different political and demographically distinct concepts.
Again, I’m not comparing people, I’m comparing transportation infrastructure. Of course people choose to fly or to drive on Europe according to distances. Just like in the US. It’s you who are xenophobically insisting on portraying the US as special, when it is not.
