Really? DHH mentioned the vast majority of names were Nordic or English. Isn't that racist against the Nordic and English people?

Most people don’t consider discrimination inside European / Asian / African groups as racism - rather, discrimination between those groups.

I don't think the posts specified the ethnicities of the people who made the lists. Are you sure it is intra-group and not inter-group?
