Lmao. Two settler colonies in the top three, only bested by the country where they celebrate Christmas by wearing blackface.
Real question though, what is the least racist country? And (challenge mode) what is the least racist white country?
The latter question came up with a conversation with my partner about moving to Finland, she was like "I heard they have a real problem with racism" and I was like yeah they're white of course they do every white country does. But maybe there's a :cracker: k country that isn't so bad? Maybe Ireland? Spain? IDK just brainstorming here.
Canada became so non-racist by teaching multiculturalism at a young age, google "canadian residential school system" to find out more.
They actually celebrate Christmas by wearing blackface in at least three countries on that list, could be more
I'm in Canada and literally saw two separate houses with the same golliwog lawn figurines today.
Canada's government has admitted it is still committing genocide against the indigenous population
Still second-least racist
:jesus-christ:
Even in Iran we stopped doing black face Hadji Firuz for our new years cos its racist as shit.
I've watched a lot of videos about "Black people go to East Asia and videotape their interactions and talk about racist experiences" and it seems like China is the chillest, while Worst Korea is the most triggered. Japan also seems like it's fairly chill
Of course any of them are far better than any mayolands
But it also seems like communism might just make a place genuinely less racist
:michael-laugh: Yeah let's just pretend Roma, Moroccans, Syrians, First Nations and Black people don't exist
Yep Netherlands number one, the country where infants are dying in camps despite resettling 74,000 Ukrainians, hmmm

we'll see what happens when the north Mediterranean becomes a desert
Real question though, what is the least racist country?
I'm gonna just throw out Costa Rica because they seem like a pretty chill country based on what I know about them
And (challenge mode) what is the least racist white country?
the best way to find this out would probably be "which European country treats Romani people the least badly?" I don't know the answer to that though
not sure about yugoslavia, given how shit ended there, unfortunately. maybe before the IMF decided to destroy them, haven't done that much reading on the bits between the rise & fall
the Germans also had a big hand in funding nationalist movements in formerly communist Yugoslavia. Very tellingly the german military high command refused to send troops in citing the last time the german army sent troops to Yugoslavia they faced heavy losses implying a belief in the continuance of the Nazi state and the modern German state
True. Maybe I was thinking about the bandung conference, non-aligned movement and working together with global south countries in these areas
There are no non racist countries, it's literally impossible to expunge racism from an entire population, save for literally killing everyone
Wrong. Racism is an ideology created by the advent of capitalism in the 16th century and it can be dispelled within a few generations with education once capitalism and its conditions are abolished.
let's be real, random middle of nowhere korean farmers are probably racist as hell lol
Japanese and Americans don't count. Also they're not watching Cops reruns and whatever anti-black racism the US has been exporting for the past century.
you're wrong and idk how you'd even think that
the average Nork would probably look at a Black person (or really any other) and probably just be amazed that such a different-looking human is standing in front of them
Everyone mentioning the blackface thing about the Netherlands - yes good very true, but how about the second biggest party in parliament being an ethno nationalist party which wants to ban Islam and deport all muslims?
The English just laughing up their sleeves, at "second biggest".
The Americans straight up confused, given that they think the whole purpose of the federal government is to ban migrants and deport them.
The projected second largest political party in Sweden have taken out political ads by painting subway trains in their color scheme(thanks "moderate" run public transit) and dubbing them "return migration" trains, tweeting about how they are "one way to Kabul".
