Why do you think it is related to race and not culture?
reply
I thought about this some more.
There are very few cultures that do not have either a superiority complex or an inferiority complex (which often results in similar behavior, because the latter will trigger defiance.) This to me is not about "white supremacy" but ultimately about tribalism.
My tribe > your tribe. Most tribes will teach this, but some within "tribes" are more susceptible to it than others, and some cultures are more overt / direct in their disrespect than others.So I think the real question should be: why don't these people from another tribe respect my tribe? I don't have a solution though, except not to spend too much time on these particular individuals and instead seek out those that do respect you.

I am the outsider in this case - I don't belong to either. I speak both languages, and I feel more comfortable with the humble ones; that's why I don't understand those who come to visit yet act like that.

Yeah, this is a cultural thing. The other white people hate us too.

Expectations are borne of experience. English is very widely spoken, so English speakers expect to be able to find someone who speaks it.
Also, most of the other white people speak English and their native language.
