Hyperbole much? The US consists of over 350 million people. You think all of them are racist? The people make the country. You’re getting upvotes because it’s a simple statement to make, but it’s not the truth. The US is an amazing country. There are still many racists, but there are less now than there were before, and this will continue to improve as we move forward.
It being a racist country doesn’t mean each person is racist. The country took part in decades of genocide, slavery, segregation, coups in countless countries, placed countless dictators in power, and inspired the Nazis (yes literally).
It’s had its issues, there’s no doubt about that. But it set the precedent for a new kind of society in 1760. It’s an amazing country.
Also, it didn’t inspire the Nazis, that is a ridiculous comment.
What new kind of society? Democracy and representative government are older than the US.
Nazis were literally inspired the US to use Zyklon B from when they used it on immigrants they still

Hitler literally praises the US in mein kampf and jim crow was an inspiration to the Nazi’s https://www.history.com/news/how-the-nazis-were-inspired-by-jim-crow
I no longer see systemic racism like there was at one time. Do you know if any government policies that are racist in nature? I don’t.
There’s a name for that buddy. Ignorance.
No, it’s liberal free speech. The big news outlets in America do not report their apartheid.
Only leftist media does and you’re labeled a terrorist for watching it.
This post is about a government contract that is racist in nature. Is that close enough for you?

Ironic that you criticized the comment for hyperbole and then use the straws an fallacy to try to shoot it down. The comment did not claim that all 350 million people are racist. You just acted like it did so you could criticize it.
And yes, the US is an amazing country with far fewer racists than ever before. I agree with you there.
