It’s ALWAYS been extremely prevalent Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

erfaan 2,526 Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 Not people comparing Switzerland to LITERAL developing countries. Ofc people in India or regional parts of China are going to look at you if you're white but not because they're racist but because they literally do not get to see white people. People in Switzerland live in a western society, where they should well and truly be aware of people that aren't white Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody stares because of racism in China or India? Please.

Please. China has been incredibly hateful towards black people, not even letting them eat inside a restaurant Now chile, where did I say that people in India weren't racist? My argument was that excusing the behaviour of a western and predominantly white country towards people of colour just because developing countries with people of colour (who some have never seen diversity in their whole life) "stare" at white people isn't valid. It's racism. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lona Delery 7,177 Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 yea, getting stares is the signature thing swiss people do when you stick out for whatever reason Sometimes it feels like I've got a war in my mind, I wanna get off but I keep riding the ride Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max 18,579 Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 Calling Switzerland a Naziland is a bit of a reach and kinda… ironic Anyways. Of course people will look at you if you‘re „different“ and that doesn’t only apply to the color of your skin Though their intentions are while staring are 99% not meant in a racist way.. it‘s just because it‘s not that common in a white „society“ like Switzerland?

Magic Mike 2,434 Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 Switzerland is home of many racist people, they voted to ban all mosque minarets for instance. People here trying to defend such a conservative country don’t know the true reality of Swiss people Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
