how many white presidents have they had? of course non caucasians are not all the same. lets just say western nations are the most diverse, most
socially accepting nations in the world by far. And COMPARED TO US... all non western nations are... we'll just say... xenophobic and or racist as
hell.
You say "of course non causcasians are not all the same" and then ask "how many white presidents have they had"? You realise how hilarious that is,
right? Who is "they"? All non caucasians? And lol, "presidents", because everywhere uses presidents as governing authority. Such an incredibly narrow
american viewpoint.
And I don't get your point at all. Like I said, India has over 2000 ethnicities. They've had presidents from among the Kashmiri Pandits, Jats,
Punjabis, etc. South Africa, the other example I gave, has had far fewer presidents, but they had a Zulu one and a Thembu one at least. Since (for
some bizarre reason) you specifically ask about Caucasians, a country that has a native Caucasian population, Turkey has had presidents that were
ethnically Turks, Kurds, Albanians, and possibly even Slavs.
To be clear, I'm certainly not saying that the examples I gave are completely devoid of racism, but to claim that western nations are diverse and
socially accepting, and non western nations are xenophobic and racist is hilariously...lacking in knowledge. Hell, to use your own criteria, there is
only one "western" nation in the history of the modern world that has ever had one non caucasian ruler, and throughout his term, his race was a HUGE
issue on both sides.
But I guess you don't know the difference between any of that?
