If I decide to make a comment about one of those countries I'm commenting on the traits of those countries not on a race of people, who are the same race as me.
People are trying too hard to take any kind of banter out of life in general. If anyone wants to slag the English, fucking go for it & I'm happy to take it & give it back, or in many cases, agree.

I think it depends on the word and the context it is said in.
The phrase itself slagging off a partucular country IMO is I think making generalisations which for me can be racist.

Once, at a party, we talked the most beautiful girl in the room round to no longer being afraid of it & she eventually let it coil up in her lap. No threat whatsoever. Unfortunately, snakes don't shit that often & when they do, you know about it.
Somewhere out there is a very beautiful girl who now hates snakes for a completely different reason than she once did.
