    I feel like if they had surveyed more people the results would be different. In these things they usually just ask 1,000 people or something. Japan should be a lot higher and certain countries in Europe.

    The results were gathered by examining multiple surveys, not just one. For each country, multiple surveys from various years were used. As the article mentioned, this means that some of the information is not up-to-date, but for some places (like Argentina), even multiple surveys over almost thirty years demonstrated little change in their opinions.

    Black people (obv. not all)at least in cancun tend to come like they own the place or get angry easily . I guess they assume they will be treated like shit and are proactive. (waiters treat like shit everybody here regardless of skin color)

    So yeah if you were to ask here who's hated, blacks are probably top3.
    Or why mexicans are disliked in USA along with hindi in gas stations.

    tl;dr Good thing the guy that put this together didnt use anecdotal 'data'

    What the actual fuck? Sorry for contributing my first-hand experience being a racial minority in one of the countries that was listed in the OP. Why don't you tell us about your time living in Korea?

    For the most part they don't really fuck with us, but the older people here fucking hate the military here. During WWII, the Japanese were telling people that were were gonna come rape the women and eat the children, etc... shit like that. Some of that retardedness stuck. Because people do stupid shit while out and about, we'll see monthly protests asking the white devils to get the fuck off Okinawa, lol. Being of the purest african blood other than Demo (Mutumbo), they tend to leave me alone. The young kids always smile and wave when i drive past, and the adults don't seem to mind me. the white guys got it worse than i do, but it's usually not bad.

    That being said, the racism IS here, but as it is the culture for them to be polite and not purposely offend, they hide it, like it's hidden in the northern states. at least when a dude in the south calls me a nigger, i know what the deal is. northen whites are some shady motherfuckers, and the japanese are the same. also, dont fuck around and call them anything other than japanese/okinawan and let them hear it. the one time i saw a native flip out, it was some white dudes talking shit and called them chinachinks in a restaurant, and chef lost his shit and started waving his sushi slicing shank around. last thing i need is for an angry culinary master to lose his shit with a blade in hand, no thanks. They hate koreans here. HATE. But you do hear gangnam style in the clubs here... more than likely because they love american money, and they play what we like so they can rob us blind in the form of expensive drinks and fucked up exchange rates. There are places on the island that are stricyl Japanese only, lmao. some really nice bars/clubs. sucks too, they look like fun.

    I can tell you right now the map is not true. Everyone in Sweden pretendent to not be racist, but is actually really racist.

    I cant count the amount of times I've told a racist joke and everyone in the room responding with "that's racist..." and give me a disgusted look. Then when I respond with "oh, come on, we're all white in here" hear some of the most racist and offensive comments from all of them.

    A lot of people in Sweden are so terrified of appearing racist that they think pointing out someone is black is racist, because they're just as smart. Because, you know, pointing out someone is black automatically means you think they're stupid.

    Swedes are kind of like the closet gay guy in the changing rooms. They're really good at pretending they're not gay and will defend that they're straight until the day they die. If they learn everyone else in the changing room is also gay, they'll have a giant orgy though.

    Finland, is that you?

    It's so fucking true that people are terrified of looking like racists because they'll lose their status as a mother teresa of racial acceptance or something. Which in turn feeds all kind of dumb as hell behavior, like giving the social welfare system to immigrants on a silver platter just to see them take advantage of it as much as they can. Or making a movie about our former president and famous WW2 veteran with the shooting taking place in AFRICA with all the actors being black tribe people. Is it a wonder that this sort of behavior actually feeds the opposite extreme? It's not the immigrants or Africans that are the problem ofc, but Finns who are desperate to act like a beacon of holy guidance to everyone else no matter what.

    One thing I don't get is why Japan gets all kinds of shit from everyone for being so much more racist than everyone else. They're just as bad as everyone else lol, not some special case.

    Well, that usually is the case. Why would you ever need to point out that someone is black?

    For the same reason you would have to point out that the sun is hot or ice is cold.

    "My black friend"
    "My girlfriend/boyfriend is black"

    There's several reasons one would like to specify what skin color someone has outside of racist reasons. Saying "My black friend" does not make you a racist, just like saying "My gay friend" does not make you a homophobe. But for some reason, Swedes are so scared to appear racist that even mentioning the word "black" makes them shrug, and if you mention "immigrant" they'll almost run and hide at least until they realize here's no "non-white" people around.

    A few months ago I was at a party and was talking to a black guy and said something like "you're black, you should know", and someone looked at me and said "you can't say that! That's racist!". So I turned to the person and said "Why? You don't think he knows he's black?". At that point I turned to the black guy and asked him if he's aware that he's black. He laughed and said "Yup, unfortunately". So I turned back to the girl and said "See? He knows."

    Swedes, in their struggle to hide their racism, are in turn blinded by every problem involving immigration because its taboo to talk about. They don't want to talk about it no more that you would like to talk about the consistency of your crap while having dinner with President Obama. As a matter of fact; several Swedes have entertained the idea that immigrants should not require papers to move to and work in Sweden.

    It's similar to gender equality, where one of the Swedish counties have decided to add a "male-tax" of 7% to every working male above the age of 18. Because, you know, that fixes the issue of women making less money then men.

    I love Sweden, but sometimes I wish Swedes wouldn't be so god damned stupid and afraid of conflict. Instead of talking about problems and issues we think of retarded ways avoid them. Because, you know, as long a you don't see the giant heap of crap in your living room it doesn't exist. Right? Right.

    This in turn makes Swedes more and more racist, and more and more annoyed, but they're terrified of showing it just in case people won't agree with them, since "everyone else will think I'm racist and not like me anymore".

    Yes, Sweden is a country full of pussies.

    Really? I can't think of any. Please share some.

    When is someone's race ever important to know?

    On this forum, perhaps. I'd personally go with all the wars they had with the other Asian nations in which they appointed themselves the superior race.

    I was breeding pokemon, and had a bunch of kabutops, which show up as brown squares in the box system. i commented on how many i had, and my friend looked over my shoulder. he asked "Why don't you get rid of some of that brown?" I said "Why don't you?"

    Everyone laughed.
