"Let's not be insensitive toward other cultures and norms". Yes, we absolutely MUST NOT judge other cultures. After all, haven't they been trying to brainwash us into believing that all cutures are at least equal to, if not superior to, OURS.

I wonder if other countries joked about the US when we practiced slavery?

it is easily a difficult topic ... deciding if you are commenting for real or tongue in cheek.
We have every right to discern for ourselves what our position is in regard to acts of other peoples ... and cultures. True, they can do whatever is the norm within their culture; however, it does not mean we agree with it or find it acceptable behavior. Why did we intervine in Bosnia, etc? I do not want to support with money,, or other means such acts as this article sights.
It is a choice. Be discerning.
