Hey, you know what I don't understand?
In the military (outsider observation); racism is pretty much non-existent.
I bet all kinds of racial infighting takes place on the battlefield; brothers in arms?
I hope the POTUS isn't racist and making the top brass he may be prejudiced against all resign?
Throw a couple brothers in the mix to create a misty fog?
Racism only affects those who allow it to?

Muslims I can live with. They are peaceful people despite their reputation in the jewish media.
Indian, Pakistan and Chinese need to check their BS at the door. They totally effed their countries up with their cultural crap and now the infection is spreading.

I am replying to Hanzhenry who says and I code;
To me, US, Canada, Australia, UK and South Africa are all my kin, and we are under massive cultural attack and that disgusts me.
All the countries you've mentioned were stolen from the real natives of the land by the RACIST white man, which means that the land weren't their in the first place. Without slaves from Africa, the UK and US would have been nothing. When it comes to South Africa, Europeans( the Dutch and the Belgian and other white groups) fled Europe and established there and created apartheid which hasn't ended yet. So tell me who is stealing from whom?
The cultural attack Mr HANZHENRY is talking about is just the IMMIGRANTS COLLECTING WHAT WAS TAKEN FROM THEM BY THE RACIST SLAVE OWNERS, COLONISTS AND IMPERIALISTS. Even if they take for another 100yrs it will not still be enough...

If Muslims want to bury their heads in religion that is up to them and it does not bother or threaten me.
when we shop we do it indiscriminately, we don't send our money back to the old country.

it isnt about the racism as much to me. I think it is about the difference in CULTURE.
I dont like certain cultures in my nation, leave your culture in the country it is from.
I don't have the exact figures to hand, but 3% of the UK is black and about 5% are Asian (Pakistani/Indian/Bangla etc etc).

What many here are heralding as the wonderful western culture must understand that your culture just a few decades ago was mired in a religious culture, as many of the (clinging to their religion and culture) Asiatics and Africans you so denounce are today doing.
It’s just that the western world was secularized before the African and Asiatic world was.
That’s the difference, as well the fact that the west stole and robbed from the third world through political colonization. en.wikipedia.org...
That’s why the west is so much more economically advanced than the third world NOT BECAUSE YOU ARE SMARTER! Or your culture is any better than anyone else’s.
What you also don’t understand is that those clinging to their own religion and culture are just living out their social conditioning. At least they have something that worked, somewhat, they have to fall back on.
What does the west have?
Indeed the west is the civilization that has and is further entering the unknown…something we call freedom, secularism, and corporate capitalism…. Something that may end up being more enslaving than any culture ever borne.
Indeed this “freedom” is evolving into a form of naked materialism that may be the worst thing the world has ever seen.
So if I were some of you I wouldn’t be so arrogant and think my western civilization is such a great thing.
With this new freedom and scientific secularism producing the atomic bomb, massive pollution and globalism…It may be the thing that, in the end, destroys all of us!
I guess for some that is something to be proud of…
A new study has found that at various times the British have invaded almost 90 per cent of the countries around the globe.
The analysis of the histories of the almost 200 countries in the world found only 22 which have never experienced an invasion by the British.
Among this select group of nations are far-off destinations such as Guatemala, Tajikistan and the Marshall Islands, as well some slightly closer to home, such as Luxembourg.

That’s because those countries still have a backwater of very poor people.
As well a strong technical culture where the US is an enticement.
Western culture, imo, is in trouble because it’s new. Modern secularism, scientism, corporate capitalism are all new to the human species. Any one of these ism’s can be a trigger of worldwide destruction, UNLESS we see this and try to settle our differences before it’s too late.
