I think he's talking about "or mayby peaople in US are just that stupid",
which technically is a comment about nationality and not race, but that
would be splitting hairs, I guess.

Me too. I've also been to a number of other countries, including living
in Europe for several years.

People in *every* country are "just that stupid". USians just tend to be
louder about it than some.

appears to be in jest, to me. What's wrong with a little light-hearted
humor?
