I'm curious what your point is, are you saying black face is only racist in the US?

I really like the Warlock in the Weekly Roll comic. Their patron is a traditional angel.
From the US: I know those names, I didn't know they were provinces. I thought they were cities to be honest.
I'll say that it's more like one political party, not the whole group. I honestly don't think most USA Americans (trying to be specific) think much about South America generally. In general the average person here doesn't know much about South America, they may know about a certain dictator or problem. They might think of certain areas like Buenos Aires, Rio De Janeiro, or Bogato because these places appear in the media (like Fast and the Furious or the Rundown). In general the average person will never go to one of these places but sees it as mysterious, potentially exciting, but also potentially dangerous place (to be fair they also look at places like NYC and Las Angeles the same way).
Disdain for South Americans mostly comes from the idea that you might want to immigrate and

It's entirely grounded in racism, fear of change and fear of the unknown. The other group really doesn't care too much and would be open to immigration as long as you're not a bad person. Unfortunately our politics have made it so that the smaller group has too much say in these things.
On that last point, George Washington is still considered the most popular president of the USA. In his own time he would come to cities and people (all of them) would swarm the streets. When the Constitution was signed Washington was in retirement, but the writers of the Constitution assumed Washington would be the first President. There were roughly 8 candidates running for the position, Washington wasn't one of them, and when Washington announced he would come out of retirement the other candidates dropped out of the running. Washington won the first election unanimously.
A lot of Europeans don't realize this, but the Constitution wasn't the first government of the new USA. First there was the Articles of Confederation which went from 1777-1789 so Washington had been gone for quite some time and was still so popular.
It's not at all surprising that it's one of the most popular landmark names in the US (street and city names).
Some other popular names include Lafayette, MLK, Lincoln, and Jackson, Jefferson, and Madison.
It certainly isn't needed to operate Wikipedia. The entire archive can fit on your phone.
This is the same guy who didn't understand why you couldn't just unplug servers and load them up in a truck like you're moving into a college dorm.
I just don't understand. This is supposed to be a tech genius who has experience with coding, computer hardware, business management, accounting and physics. How the fuck does he not understand basic logistics?
Think he means a red eye?
It's just another way to brew coffee. I found a Wikipedia page about and it appears to have been invented in 1830. Supposedly this method makes an exceptionally clear brew, low suspended solids. Looking at some pictures it doesn't seem that complicated though there are some more artsy versions that make it complicated. If you do pour over coffee as your norm then this is probably a half step longer, but if you just have a machine then this is way more complicated.
It's also used for dramatic pause, suspense, or as a setup for a punchline, which may be the case for the title. Other punctuation is probably more appropriate, but oftentimes doesn't convey the desired level of pause.

Idk, I'm curious how common it is outside of Germany specifically. I've heard that Germany has exceptionally strict noise restrictions.
That doesn't really make a lot of sense either though. Most cars have built in sound proofing and while you can hear other cars, it's rarely a useful sense when driving. If not being able to hear is a significant hazard then why are deaf people allowed to drive?
Simply applying paint to your face isn't racist, but if you're doing so to impersonate a different racial group it's definitely a racially insensitive thing. You might have no malice in doing so, but by virtue it is a form of mockery.
