"The United States is the LEAST racist nation on Earth."

[TJ-Tretman]

35. Not anywhere close

While America may seem like a beacon of tolerance in a world where the Far-Right seems to be gaining ground in Europe and rampant ignorance is in many other parts of the world, it isn't. America simply has put a mask over the subject of ethnicity and skin color. Thanks to taboos set in the 1980s, even being slightly racist has its repercussions. So, the majority of racists don't show their identity to people in real life. But, sadly, America is rife with intolerance and racism, it's just that the deception of no racism in America lives because there is little overt racism. In reality, I would say America is more racist than most of us think, and that's a problem.
