Obama won the country's popular vote in both 2008 and 2012, meaning the majority of people in the US voted for him, meaning the majority of people are OK with a mixed race man as their acting president - ie, not overtly racist. (No, you aren't automatically a racist for voting differently, I am just using the statistics to make the point that his race didn't matter to most people) While the country still has it's share of racists (so does every other country in the world) overall, it's nowhere near as bad as it once was. Every country, and every race of people has it's share of racist members. Unfortunately, It probably will for the foreseeable future. Also, thinking that everyone in the south is a racist is a pretty -blam!-ing ignorant. 🙂

18 답변Racism isn't just a Southern problem...its an American problem. The only thing that made the South worse than the North is that the South **institutionalized** their racism and codified it into law....while the North practiced in on the down-low, and **socially** enforced it. But it is NOT a coincidence that----right after our first non-white President of the United States----that we now have one who is a white male, who shamelessly wears his bigotry on his sleeve. Who trumpeted it during his campaign no in coded dogwhistles, but arrogant catcalls. ....and it wasn't just Southerners who voted for him . What gives me hope for this country is that this man did not win the popular vote, but instead squeaked into the office by the narrowest of margins..... ....and is one of the most unpopular Presidents this nation has ever had. But lets not kid ourselves. There is 35% of the population who will support this man no matter what he does...and I suspect that a sizeable majority do so because he hates the same people that they hate....and he gets away with expressing his hatred in ways that they can no longer get away with.

작성자: Uncanny_Vale 6/4/2019 3:17:42 AM... And the morning after the civil rights act was passed, all the racists in the south awoke from their slumber to find the evil fog of hatred and prejudice had been magically lifted from their hearts. They then held hands with their black neighbors and frolicked joyously though the meadows of equality in celebration of their new found sense of tolerance and brotherly love. And they all lived happily ever after and no one was racist in the south ever again. - The End [spoiler]Who wants to hear another fairy tale? [/spoiler]

Not sure what your point is. You’re painting with a wide brush. Are you saying not everyone in the south is a racist, therefore the “south” isn’t racist, and that’s ok? There are racist people all over, and that’s not ok. Heck there are pro-hitler people all over, all over the US even, forget Germany. There’s pockets of racism all over this country, and it’s just fact that there are more of these pockets in red states, because their leaders and policies breed ignorance and inequality, and ignorance leads to racism. I’m not talking about democrat/republican differences, I’m just speaking facts about what happens to groups of people in different situations, with different education levels, different upbringing, demographic surroundings, fears, priorities, etc.
