I notice in the WC squad there’s very few black players.

Same with Argentina a Spanish colony where I think there’s none. Prolly whiter than any European country

This is in contrast to Portugal and Brazil- a Portuguese colony, where there’s a lot of players of black ancestry on both teams.

Surely got me thinking Spaniards have a certain culture towards black people compared to their Portuguese neighbours

oh 100% europe racist af besides uk/france which is milder

Everybody racist. Next question

This , everyone is extremely racist. Especially X race ( insert racist statement)

Have a Afro-Latino homie who tells me in LatAm, many of the people are racist towards Afro Latinos and they treat em differently smh

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racism_in_Europe

France and Uk racist af too

Everyone can be racist mate

op when he finds out who migrated to argentina after WW2

The Nazis

exactly

man is basing this off world cup squads

i guess France aint racist then because they got the plug from all the African countries they colonised lol

Spain seeks worse. UK ain’t that bad tbh

It’s a very valid observation.

There was a clear racial disparity when I visited Barcelona, and thats a diverse city where around 1 in every 3 citizens were born abroad.

I can imagine as a country there is probably a pretty heavy racial bias that follows a typical worldview of colorism.

You'd be treated fine as a tourist in the big cities though, because everyone just wants your money.

Bruh, the UK left the UE and a major reason for it was racially/ethnically motivated, don't kid yourself.

Anyone know why Portugal/Brazil different to Spain/Argentina?

Seems to be drilled into Spaniards not to racially mix tbh

Every country got racists

Troooo.

I forget how white the UK is outside of inner city. I’ve also insulated myself from it to an extent

But yeah you’re prolly right

somehow, I lived in Spain a couple years as an east-european, they weren't directly racist with me but they definitely where lowkey, there's also many nationalist/patriotic movements, fascists and nazis

these are from selected moments, it was not a re-ocurring thing that could not let you lead a normal life tho, I don't know or speak for others

at school you were bullied if you spoke other language that the majority didn't understood (at first I didn't knew spanish so I was only talking with a few kids of my same nationality)

during youth I was relating myself with more foreign kids than spanish, don't know why but it was really a blessing to have so many cultures clashed in a same place, you get to learn so much

in the professional world you were not prioritized to be selected on job applications, you were also more prone to be hired as a temp, and paid less than a spanish person

there existed (and might still exist) some extreme-right political parties with slogan 'Spanish people first', we also had one hq in our city but everyone was vandalizing it

as a romanian we were many times misrelated with roma people

keep in mind I felt less and less racism with time, but maybe it was because I usually blend in with the accent, or people changed

Portugal is racist as f*** too

Barcelona beautiful though been a couple times.

Only back people I’d see were street vendors

argentina had a p large afro latino population until they got them tf out of here
