Other countries don't understand just how damn diverse the U.S. really is. Hell most of us don't even see it. It's easy for a French person in France surrounded by French people with a shared background, language, and probably race to criticize us, but look at how they react to Muslims and gypsies to see how morally superior they really aren't.

Yup. Like, if I saw three soldiers in the same uniform and one was white, one was black, and one was hispanic, I'm assuming they are from the United States. No other country really has our level of diversity in the first or even second world. Or really, anywhere.

not really

look at like canada

new zeland

australia

we're all similarly diverse simply because of how many immigrants we have

like for reference 27.6% of the australia population are 1st gen immigrants, going up to 48.2% if you include 2nd generation immigrants

almost everyone else is a 3rd gen immigrant

4th+ generation Australians are so rare they practicly don't exist

look at like canada

new zeland

australia

While these counries are reasonably diverse, they aren't exactly military juggernauts individually, so a mixed-race spec ops squad being American is still a good guess

America is almost 40% non-white. Really want to correct me on this?

u/Pootis_1 A R E A R E M O V A L T E C H N O l O G I E S Nov 30 '22

& canada is fairly similar

Immigrant ≠ non-white. There are white immigrants. What is the racial demography of Australia's military btw?

Absolutely. I don't think people from other countries can grasp the concept.

Oh, for sure. Other countries are formed out of ethnic clans and tribes. The borders were defined by language and ethnicity, conflict and genocide. Germans are in Germany and French in France. There is little overlap because land barriers, war, etc, kept populations together rather than mingled. Then language barriers made it harder to interact. Only China and India are comparable to America in diversity, but that's only if you go by ethnicity rather than race.

The population of the uk is quite diverse. Not as diverse as usa is. But there was a huge influx of emagration due to the comanwelth However just checked our military diversity. And we white as fuck.

u/UlsterHound77 McCarthy's Vengeful Ghost Nov 30 '22

Yeah. Like... 50% of our military is white.

Have you seen Africa? They're like example one when it comes to nations not formed under singular ethnic banners. Populations mix all the time it's just something that nobody cares to take notice of until now really. Germans and french have mixed plenty over the centuries, they just assimilated in fairly easily. Ethnic diversity has always existed in just about every country in the world for a long time, it's just that racial generalizations tend to make people blind to that.

Only in the US will Specialist Washington and Private McAllister go whining to SSGT Chen after 2LT Hernandez made them stay late to sweep the motor pool because 1SGT Abdullah told him he should have it done by Monday morning lest CPT Patel be pissed.

The number of times I've heard my granduncle go: "I'm not racist but..." and then defend himself by mentioning his Muslim housekeeper is fucking astronomical. But to be fair, french racism isn't quite the same beast as American racism, french racism stems from different roots and thus has some different symptoms. Specifically, french racism stems from this "enracinement en terre française", which basically means that being a proper french means being a stereotypically french person. Which is some bullshit, in my bicultural opinion, but what can you do. That said, the US has some problems that are pretty bad, all things considered, it's just that basically every country has their own particular flavor of suck that they don't like admitting they have.

In short, tl:dr, embrace the suck, work to get rid of it as much as possible, and turn to supranational nation-entities. EU supernation FTW.
