Dem base hardest hit.

Quote:With all the recent race clanging on MSNBC and other cable news networks, now’s probably a good time to remind everyone that America is among the least racist countries in the world.

I know this statement will be shocking news to regular viewers of “PoliticsNation,” but it also has the quality of being true.

From 2010 to 2014, the World Values Survey asked residents in over 50 countries who they would not want as neighbors. Just over five percent of respondents in the United States said “people of a difference race.” That’s far more tolerant a response than citizens of most European, African and Asian countries gave. As a comparison, 15 percent of Germans, 41 percent of Indians and 22 percent of Japanese said they wouldn’t want to live next to “people of a different race.” The Washington Post depicted the results in a useful chart.

The survey is probably not a perfect indicator of how pervasive racism is in a given society, but the results do correlate with what we know anecdotally. Take, for instance, the fact that America elected and then re-elected a black man for president.

Uh oh. Leftists don't like facts.

Next thing you'll be telling us is that men and women aren't actually equal.

In fairness, they aren't.

There is an appropriate, but offensive quote from Dell/Gary Busey in 'DC Cab' that could go here. It's been repeated by numerous others.

If you don't know it and care to look it up, it begins with 'Why are women so uptight'.

Men are pretty simple creatures.

This is actually no surprise. Just talk to some African Americans who served in the military and were stationed, during peace time, in many European and Asian countries. They'll tell you what real racism is like.

I was surprised by the WaPo map since I've heard, anecdotally, that Japan is the most racist country in the world.

Pseudoscience. They've never been here.

Only because the majority of America is white.
