President Joe Biden on Wednesday called close US ally Japan “xenophobic” at a Washington, D.C., fundraiser, just weeks after lauding the US-Japan alliance at a state dinner.
Don’t get out much, eh? Xenophobia is present all throughout the world in different amounts, it has its roots in any insulated human nature. The US is far from the worst on Earth though, despite whatever cherry-picked propaganda one may read. We just do have some, particularly in more interior regions.
Yeah I’m not clicking on that. Assuming it’s about the ICE facility allegations from 2020 though. And yeah, Trump is a monster. Make no mistake, the US could go fully fascist if we let it, there are certainly xenophobic elements within the country. It’s not a majority opinion though.
“majority opinion” doesn’t matter, government actions do. Regardless of the majority opinion, what has occurred and other things that continue to occur are irreparably destroying lives and killing people.
If all government actions from any point in time are what matter, and not the democratic opinions of the populace or the actions of the current government, then I’d say the worst was Mongolia under Genghis Khan.
It’s really not. Not to sound like I’m erasing racism in the US, but the reason you hear about it is because it’s tested and contested so much. It’s almost always way worse in more homogeneous nations.
The US is one of the most xenophobic countries in the world.
Americans are so racist they don’t even realize how racist they are, and get mad when you point it out.
most?

I don’t hear about other countries doing forced sterilization on immigrants.

Amerika already is full-fascist; if you can’t tell, you haven’t been paying attention. Must be comfortable where you’re at.
Have you ever actually been outside the US?
It’s really not. Not to sound like I’m erasing racism in the US, but the reason you hear about it is because it’s tested and contested so much. It’s almost always way worse in more homogeneous nations.
I don’t think you know what that word means.
