Just a little bit of context to get you going. There’s been a bit of debate on Twitter – where else? – about the venues this year’s football World Cup will be played at in America, and the fact that you can apparently only get there on (typically very expensive) public transport.

It’s prompted no end of Europeans to insist that no, they are quite happy to walk, prompting quite the lively debate that inevitably plays into people’s perception of respective fitness levels on either side of the Atlantic.

All of which brings us here, and this particular American who took such offence that she accused Europeans of something called ‘medical racism’ and, well, best have a watch for yourself.

And these people surely said it best.
