USA is a nonstop racist shithole. You haven't noticed? Probably part of the problem.
You can't classify all of America as a "racist shithole", it is just too big. We kinda have most of the spectrum. There are many towns and cities that are very welcoming, but there is the opposite as well. And some states compared to others are very different in their tolerance levels. (Real quick, Texas is bigger than most countries, i.e. Japan, Germany, the UK., etc.)
But no, I live in a very diverse area, and in my area, at least, there are very few racist assholes. I traveled quite a bit around the states, for over 15 years, and I have seen many types of people. Many types of racist. But they are a very small minority. The shittiest minority groups are the loudest. That's why they can be loudest, because they are the shittiest. It's weird, but that's how it works.
You know what other tiny group of the population is super loud? Like, you can't stop hearing about them/from them? It's the transsexuals. They are the loudest, most in your face... anyway.
Honestly, you sound like a little judgemental twat.
Your first reaction is to insult and write someone off? I think you sound like the problem. And an asshole.
