With posts like this, some people might think Five Feet of Spare Some Change™ is just the tiniest bit jealous of all the attention KKKate’s getting. This is a bit cheeky even for her.
Where I came from, it is part of the "culture" to complain about "Paki" cab drivers, "faggots" and "drunken Indians". The corporal punishment of children is not unheard of. Italians treat their daughters very differently than they do their sons.
Sweet dancing Jesus, no wonder Five Feet of Watch out for the Scary Brown People™ is such a misogynistic, hypocritical racist. Don’t blame her, blame her upbringing!
Notice how she has the word culture in scare quotes? It’s almost — almost — like she realizes how truly fucking ignorant a statement like this is. But I have my doubts. After all, that would require a little more self-awareness than Five Feet of Buy My Book™ has at the best of times.

It's a different culture at the hatchery she came from.
Actually, she has a point here and it's not quite right to lift her remark out of context like that.
What else did she say?
Well, if I take her “in context” and understand things correctly, what she’s doing with that passage is satirically channeling what some of the more egregiously offensive features not atypical to her so-called “culture” that would be considered “protected speech” by the proposed expansion of the HRC’s mandate.
There may well be some understandable confusion given the fact that FFoF appears to actually subscribe to some of the “hate speech” and bigotry that she mocks here.
So she's using the tired old meme that says "the father killed his teenage daughter for wearing the wrong clothes, and you leftards think it's ok because in the father's culture honour killing is normal".
"Complaining about" tries to evoke the almost endearing old namecalling that Archie Bunker types do.
But of course it escalates to calling the cab company and demanding that the driver not be a Paki, refusing service to people you think are faggots, and of course bringing back residential schools to save the Indians from becoming drunkards.
Just as we expect people from other countries to drop whatever bigotry and activities that would be criminal here, we expect it of those born here too.
Something like that. It gets complex. The examples of bigotry she cites were fairly prevalent where I grew up back in the 60s-70s although I'd never claim they were part of my "culture"... which of course begs the meaning of that term in the first place.

We quite often know what she's doing; the point is that she does it so damn badly. And I've said before, she's a hypocrite.
There's no nobility in defending mediocrity.
