Everyone in this thread knows you live closer to Minneapolis than to Ürümqi. You started the thread by discounting the difficulties of black people in USA. You wanted someone to give you some "facts" to "support" the claim that racism is a problem. All of us made the same assumption based on that evidence. We don't need to imagine anything else.

I, for one, have no idea where yters lives

[yters]

how would you characterize your efforts to understand what i am saying and communicate in a clear and unbiased manner?

[jessaustin]

I've made no particular efforts in that vein; you are an open book. In reply to this observation you'll whinge on about how mysterious and unique and totally-not-racist you really are, but will offer no discernible arguments in favor of that proposition. It's really an HN trope by this point: say something totally privileged and douchey, and then insist that you may only be criticized by perfect and omniscient beings when other people call you on it. You're not the first person to do it; you won't be the last.

[yters]

it seems you believe i am racist. how did you arrive at that conclusion? or do you assume people who disagree with you are racist?
