How is it one of the most racist countries? Several countries on this list took many immigrants from everywhere since generations. Meanwhile a country like Lybia openly having a black slaves market ain't making the list of the most racist nations towards black people... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sorry if you or someone you love got a bad experience there but I live in France and the huge generalization you're making is just false. France is the country with the most tourists, plenty of people come there not knowing french language at all and they're clearly not generally "insulted" over it. You take very rare cases and make it appears like a big thing... We don't have an "issue with everyone" but you surely have an issue with us. I dont have an issue with France or its people, but I do have an issue with France regarding this specific subject. Italy for example is my favorite country, but if the subject is about cat calling and harassment, I would put Italy at #1. Its not fair to say that I have an issue with italians! Just like how I love my country and people, but I also admit we have an extremist and racist problem. I travel twice a year all over the world, and been going to France for the past 30 years. Its the only place in the world where I need to put an expectation that ill get insulted, and it always happens. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You either were either extremely unlucky, actually not insulted each time over language but over something else or you're saying it to justify the idea of France "hating everyone" when we don't.

Yes even with my bad experience, I still visit France almost every year. The overall experience is amazing, but dealing with French people can be a bit challenging. Its not just the language issue, that was just a small example of it. And I admit I exaggerated when I said French people hate everyone! I said that because the person replying to me was saying im biased because im a Muslim! So I replied saying French people hate everyone, not just Muslims. I hope you understand I have no issue with France in general, its just a criticism I have, and I worded my criticism badly in a none serious way, when its an actual serious topic.

I find it so funny when white Latinos complain about racism like aren’t your ancestors literally the same people who invented all of this? (I’m not talking about you so please don’t take offence) ...you think white people invented racism when people from all continents have colonized and enslaved their own/poc/people of different ethnicity and nationalities? Why do you think that you, as a homosapien is alive today? Is it maybe because all of our common ancestors killed off every other human species thanks to racism and wanting to dominate? I mean I could go on about this. Saying that white people exclusively created racism is a bit dumb. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Arab invaders come in a close second but most of them are technically white as well so there you go. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but why do you act as if white people invented racism? That's complete bs. People of different races and nationalities kill each other. It's in our DNA so let's not blame the concept of racism on white people lol. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

andreas85 400 Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 Most European countries, including Switzerland and France, are some the least racist countries in the world. That video is ridiculous, anti-scientific, populist nonsense. Most European countries are better for black people than most African countries and that's why black immigrants are moving to Europe. Also, the fact that there are no Eastern European, Middle Eastern, or Asian countries in the list is a bit suspicious.
