But, I suppose, an important question to ask is: which is worse? The overt in-your-face racism or the subtle more nuanced racism that avoid stating it directly? In a lot of ways, the candor is better, since at least you know what you are dealing with. A lot of the efforts in the U.S. have merely driven it underground, and the efforts to counter it have become sort of draconian in themselves (e.g. more "thought police").
