yeah, srsly! in the real world, no shit it would be unacceptable. in the show's world? all of them have done much worse things (especially house and wilson); but even the way the show set it up, and not just the characters' reactions, treated it as a worse action
at least if foreman had been involved, from what it sounds like, they wouldn't have the added racism on top of the western vs. global south dynamic. as it is, it's like the worst possible way to treat such a storyline (assuming such a storyline is even necessary, which it never really is)
ikr. i will always be enormously happy with the people i've met through it, but i'm really glad i no longer feel a real attachment to the actual show
