I think this is simply just ignorance on your part and the part of your friend. People all around the world are full of hate.
Most countries are still relatively homogenous. Any country where you see some mixing, you'll see the same hate. The Middle East is too easy of an example. Germany, France, etc have a lot of overt hate. The hate in Ireland between the Protestants and the Catholics was very real and they're the same race and culture.
- FilterSweep 10y agoNaivete is a possibility, but I haven't witnessed it as overt between people in my living in France (Riviera, not Paris) compared to what I've seen in America - However, as I am not a victimized group, this may be reinforcing naivete. Despite this naivete though, I would be wary of circumstance before making the declaration "mixing of any kind = hate"
- pfarnsworth 10y agoYou misread what I wrote, but I never said "mixing of any kind = hate". I said specifically "Any country where you see some mixing, you'll see the same hate." The hate you see in the US is not any more or any less than you will see in France, especially in Paris where it is completely overt against Muslims.
