The US is the most progressive country in the history of man, so then why...

...is it also the most racist?

This country was SETTLED by people from another land. So why are there so many racists?

Also it's the 21st century, why can't we get past the fact that a persons SKIN COLOR, something they cannot choose, is used to catagorize and generalize people. A persons skin color is the same as their eye color. It shouldn't matter...

You sure it is the most racist? or is the issue just taken very seriously here?

I would argue it is the latter.

because there are so many races here that others tend to get annoyed by some. :P

Really? Another one of these threads?

I think where the most prejudice. Theres a difference. We arnt linching people any more or segregating schools, etc. Whe live by stereotypes however.

More racist than the Middle East?

:lol:

You see this guy?

Well, you'll be very interested to know that he's our President right now.

It is because america is full of humans.

If we met some sentient beings from elsewhere in the universe I'm sure they would show us how civilization should be, and then eradicate us all because they'd know if we are capable of hurting our own species we will turn on them in a heartbeat.

Im sorry one black president doesn't change the fact that there are so many racists in this country it makes me sick to my stomach.

Just go read some youtube comments, and you will see for yourself

The non-racists significantly outnumber the racists is the point I'm getting at.

Not everybody who uses Youtube is an American.

Going by Youtube comments is not a good way to tell how many racists there are in the US, also do you have any proof that there are more racists in the US than other nations, like France, the UK, Canada, Germany, ect?

Which country is the most racist is unquantifiable, there's no way to actually tell. From my experience, though, we are not the most racist. I've lived in Mississippi my whole life but just recently got back from the UK for five months... I found the UK to be much more racist/anti-immigrant than the US, especially the area I lived in (Staffordshire "Potteries" district).SkylinePigeon

Youtube is your justification? Wow. I'll be sure to use Youtube as a source for any study or conclusion I come to in the future. The U.S. is one of the least racist as a whole. At least the U.S. isn't planning on eradicating entire cultures as some of the Middle-Eastern Countries are.

Trust me, you have not seen racism until you come to this country >_>

More racist than the Middle East?

:lol:

Yeah, seriously, it does not get worse than here. Be thankful lol.

Yes. This. The US is far from the most Racist Country in the World, but you see it on the news and on TV in general more often because we're more aware of it being a generally unaccepted practice. The most racist countries are the ones where itis almost a part of their culture, and where you wouldnt even hear about it happening, because nobody cares to talk about it, or listen.

I don't think the US is the most racist but I also think that people underestimate the amount of it that does still exist. I hesitate to do this but here is a link that speaks to this issues.

No, no, I dont think America is even by popular belief the most progressive country.

At least concerning popular belief/fame that is Netherlands.

KKK, Nazi, Black Isrealites, some random racist guy, gangs one race only, shalll I go on?

...............cause, theres other races

That proves that we are a country where groups like that are allowed to exist. Which is progressive in itself. Only in very very select countries are those kind of groups allowed to even exist.

And just to let Makemap know, the Black Israelites are simply a joke. Nothing more. No real Israelite, or Jew for that matter, honestly recognized or recognizes them.

America the most progressive country in the history of man? That's overstating it by several magnitudes.supercubedude64

It's actually Kanata that is the most pregresive. America just steals.
