I know this has already been down voted, but I want to point out that this exact dialog was invented by the soviet union to distract from their abysmal human rights records[1]. Moreover, it doesn't even make sense as a deflection given that the Soviet Union had institutional racism at a very high level, ranging from antisemitism [2] to ethnic cleansing[3] to outright genocide[3]. America is certainly guilty of racism, and we should discuss these issues. However, it should not be used as a weapon to defend evil regimes.

- prolikewh0a 8y agoIt still happened in the USA and I don't think the above comment was defending either side. The USA is just as evil and always has been.
