    Racism literally came from Christianity. It definitely is the problem and creates a framework to allow capitalists/wealthy to take advantage of people.

        yea japan is notoriously racism-free.

        I know you guys are oppressed by a bunch of christian fundamentalist, but my wife is muslims and secularists here would love to “remigrate” her to the very same biggots that tried to kill her.

          Imagine confusing xenophobia with racism. While there are some traditional cultural groups that experience discrimination this does not translate to general racism like in the US or European.

          Most African Americans experience more freedom in Japan than in Christian dominated cultures. Why is that?

            Because japanese racism is mostly targetting chinese and korean whereas black people is presented to them through american medias, which they consider high culture.

            Japan was allied with the nazis ffs

              Glad we can put you silly comment about racism to rest

              The US funded the Nazi for Christ’s sake. What is your point?

                My point is that the US isn’t evil specifically because it’s christians and that religion isn’t the enemy.

                My wife’s muslim and the fascists here would have no problem shipping her back to the very same place where extremists attempted to her life. In the name of atheism.

                  Christianity is very evil, no denying it. Read the Bible, full of disgusting displays of manipulation and power.
