You can say that about socieities.. but not cultures. Its when you ask them to prove it by showing their reasoning that it becomes racist.
Take Sangetsu's idea that Arabs beat their wives. While there might be a problem in Middle Eastern society regarding law.
The idea that beating your wife is a cornerstone of Arab culture is just insulting.
It's why I found it interesting you complaining about "America bashing" when people were only doing the same, except with regard to the lack of knowledge of geography.
A lack of knowledge of geography is hardly the cornerstone of American culture by the same measure.
