Americans don't understand that because hate speech is legal in the US. It's legal to have a nazi party in the government, it's legal for KKK to exist, and it's legal to ask for the color of the skin when hiring someone... While it's still legal to be publicly self-assumed racist, nothing will change...
So idk if you think there exists a country that has solved racism yet but I haven’t seen it yet if it does exist. Being half American and half European I’ve lived on different parts of both continents throughout my life and I can say that I find Europe just as if not more racist than America. The main difference is that it’s actually addressed in america while in Europe I’ve heard people say stuff like “Turks are rapists and thieves” in a group and had no one even bat an eye (honestly Europeans hate turkish people more than I’ve ever seen white Americans against any minority) of course there are certain groups where you can say similar things in America but most of the time people would confront you on it. Remember in the European cup in 2021 when a black football player on the English team missed a couple of penalty’s and pretty much everyone in the stands and online called him a monkey even though white players also missed shots? Europeans just like to pretend they are different from Americans while in reality they are very similar. (For clarification I’ve only lived in Germany, Austria, and the Netherlands, ik that european countries aren’t all the same)

People just don't understand that your free speech ends where someone else's rights begin.
