      Humans have some natural tendency toward racism. But I believe America is less racist than almost any society on Earth.https://twitter.com/RichLeMond/status/843493515841568768 …

      If only 7% have that belief then why the endless talk about America being racist? 8% believe Elvis is still alive.

      Name me one society less racist than the United States. Maybe only Canada or Australia could beat us, and I'm not sure they could.

      I would also want metrics to compare Brazil, seemed very much less oriented around a race-based class system than US IME

          They don't appear to be experiencing populist backlashes, like most other developed countries...

          this seems like an unusual way to measure racism. You mean xenophobia?

          So egalitarian. Just look at the favelas and how they liquidate street kids.
