America is an HISTORICALLY racist nation. For whatever reason, I’ve found white Americans are so reluctant to acknowledge this. As a white foreigner living in the states, it’s honestly embarrassing how in denial many of you are.

Wait a minute, do you mean America is more racist than other countries currently? Or America is currently more racist than other countries historically? And what countries are you comparing it to?

And that’s precisely why the rest of the world doesn’t take you seriously. Just a nation of ignorant, uneducated cretins.

Do you not realize that you sound racist just by saying this? Germans have the pluck to acknowledge their past. Yet when it comes to white Americans, all of a sudden it’s, “I didn’t do it- therefore it never happened.” You’re foolish.

Nobody said it never happened. They just say we’re not going to take the blame for something we didn’t do. Saying you’re “embarrassed” by an entire race of people living in one area not doing something you what is what sounds racist.

I feel you don’t understand the definition of racism. I’m white, as are you. We’re both at an advantage, you see- therefore, I can’t be racist against you. Your inability to acknowledge the history of your nation/how that reluctance leads to the continued oppression of people of color to this day is what makes you racist.

Remember when racism meant treating someone different because of their race 😆

That’s never been what racism is, and it’s sad that you’re that blind to see it. Racism has always been systemic. You’re confusing racism with prejudice. For example, I’m prejudiced against white Americans, and will openly admit that- and you’re certainly not helping their case at the moment.
