Yes, there's a lot less hate in Europe, which is also why there is less need for an individual to forcefully identify himself with a single race, in order to fit in.

You think so?

There is still plenty of latent racism in Europe, it just depends on where and what race you're talking about. Racism against muslims/middle easterns is pretty common on the continent. Just look at all the shit people from turkey have to put up with in Germany, where they are treated like second class citizens by the government. Same goes for france.

THAT
I do agree. There is not hate. But there is definitively racism.

Here in france, it can be harder to get a job or a appartment. Things may get better ...
