I agree! While its going to be an unpopular opinion:

I've lived on all continents save two and I believe the USA is the least racist country in the world by a massive margin, now this dosent mean that systematic racism is not a problem in the US, I'd argue its a bigger problem here than in other parts of the world. Other parts of the world thst are, weirdly enough. More racist!?

If you stop to consider the amount of hate being spewed in America on a daily basis toward people of various skin colors, weather directly so online or more covertly using coded language on news, The US would definitely appear very racist.

But I've lived here in various states, all over the US save the west coast, for almost a decade now, and Americans are by far the least racist people around thst I've encountered that number more than a couple million.

I belive the average American is very prejudiced however, especially against other Americans who happen to be black. Especially if they also sound or dress black.

Really anyone who sounds or dresses in a non-white way.

What I got from your post is ‘the least racist American is very prejudiced against none white people”

So American still America, America still racist

Why I don't find your response very discussionable. This post isent supposed to be here. That was supposed to be a reply to a completely different thread/parent comment somewhere else!?
