Just recognized a common right wing deflection.

stats both outdated and under reported the US was literally built upon racial violence, disparity, and destruction i understand Balotelli the football player's plight and being black in Italy but it pales in no comparison to the racial titan that the US stands to be you're saying weirdo s*** man.

DO NOT go to Russia. or at the very very least go there if you know somebody there and if you're ready. but you'll be much, much better off without going there, s*** will make you never leave the States

Visited Japan for two weeks. Never encountered any racism just a few stares. The people were very kind and helpful. Beautiful place. I recommend going during spring.

not really white mentality its nationalist mentality

alot of the most openly racist places in the world are shades of brown vs shades of brown look at how indians get treated in arabic countries

if you really want to eel included then western europe is a pretty good bet

living there all you're life you gonna experience some s*** because theres angry idiots everywhere but people saying its as bad as America are actually crazy like even in the UK black people are much more integrated

plus as a toruist you're fine anywhere the racism doesn't come from hate to tourists

never heard one bad thing ab Amsterdam in my life. like literally not one

brev you just cant. the fact that you're black will never ever ever leave the conversation if you're there, it doesn't matter how long or who you associate yourself with. there are African-Russians who either have to be indoctrinated to the brim and basically accept that this s*** will never stop on them, otherwise its pretty much impossible to live there

s: am white in russia saw a lot of s*** back in the uni days

the concept of race was procured from whites/whiteness/ capitalism/ and pitted other people of difference against one another in ways unimaginable and that way of thinking became infectious is my point but i do see what you're saying.

i thought Russia was an interesting visit considering the afro russian history and their existence of being some of the first peoples to settle there that place is really reminiscent of what's to come if the US doesn't get it's act together.

italian racism is a huge societal issue that seep its way into football , sadly its not only balotelli , but a whole list of black football players who affected

you're right its definitely not that simple and over years it tunrs just to pure racism but in the places mentioned you an pretty much be a tourist of any race and be cool pretty much anywhere

to live its a bit more complex but nowhere near America levels

yeah but football is like the frontier of racism, the ultras are literally the scum of italy

when it comes to football , its not only italians ultras or fans who are guilty , most of europe is

this is a really interesting topic i wasn't aware of. Knew a guy at school whose parents were from southern Africa and had met at uni in Russia in the 80s, but thought this was a one off tbh, didn't realise there was a wider community. Do you have any good reading you could recommend on this??

to answer OP question , most of the world follows a white supremacist agenda , but that shouldn’t stop you from experiencing other countries and their cultures,BUT don’t go to the middle east & eastern europe

no really the ultras for clubs in italy are not at all representative of the general population in the least

fans dont support the monkey sounds or any of that at all

football ultras do much more than being racist and sure its not just italy but its the culture in the subset of the population

alot of the racism in europe comes from lack of understanding since there's been free africans in euope for much less and there are less of them in general, its not outright hatred like in america

not sure if I'm exactly pointing you in the right direction but the most wide reference you can pull is looking towards the occupancy of the abkhazians.

most of the history is hard to dig up bc in those early times what was prioritized was the propaganda, philosophy, science, and eugenics in the essence of elitism soviet authorities even back then were very conscious of the race relations narrative between them and the US and racial incidents were met w/ harsh punishment.

but then again living in a racially homogenous society and not having the opportunity to be discriminatory is a big factor there i found it to be an interesting twist of a visit.

You have quite a few of them actually...

you didn't hold back at all, amazing work there b

Why do people here want to go to russia? Even russian people want to get out of there

Regardless got a black friend who traveled around the world until he had to cancel cause of Corona. He was in Ghana but it is a pain in the ass because of Malaria. Tansania was apperantly alright but he didnt get to meet a lot of people there. India he liked the most but he also really didnt get to interact with a lot of Indians cause their English is very bad. He enjoyed Thailand cause of the parties but the people were pretty racist and he got robbed . Last stop was Japan which he really enjoyed and the people were the nicest.

Amsterdam

Sweden

Germany pick a town

he capping
im russian and aint no skinheads here since like 07

lol sounds like your friend was exposed to getting finessed in Thailand rather than experiencing racism he fell for something than got strip showed.

Thailand's goat would recommend Pattaya as far as I've been all over there's a huge black military/ex military presence spread out over Thailand so that's an odd deduction to me but ion wanna invalidate what your friend felt but to me it feel like he got finessed for just being a gullible tourist.

would recommend Kandy in Sri Lanka one of the coolest places you can possibly fade.
