Hamlet 2. There are some problematic things in it, that haven’t aged so great, but it is otherwise amazingly funny.

Your point was that we’re better because we talk about it.

All over the country legislatures are banning books, and curriculums that even mention racism. It isn’t an isolated incident either.

Furthermore, what part of the country are you living in that leads you to believe we are less racist than other countries!? Our racism has defined our country ever since it was created.

Seriously, I am curious what part of the country you live in? It is sheltered from most American realities

Our tap water is in crisis. What hasn’t been privatized is either being operated with outdated technology, or being polluted, and EPA protections are being weakened by the Supreme Court.

And, in most of America there aren’t freely available public restrooms. They are all located in businesses that will outright deny you access, or force you to make a purchase. Their policies allow them to discriminate against the unhoused, and the disabled.

I am an American, but I’m not going into I get into the broader discussion here, just had to respond to your two points, as they don’t seem grounded in reality.
