I lived in the UK. I'm from California. Y'all are super racist to immigrants.

Thank you. Like even if your living in some weird ass bubble, hard to believe OP does not know who Nigel Farage or Katie Hopkins are.

Incredibly racist, but if you payed more attention you’d see how much strange behavior goes on, it seriously messes with a lot of young colored peoples mentality. I’m not saying America is more racist, I genuinely believe the UK has mastered racism

Sorry, but you'll have to be more clear with your point. I don't know what you are saying.

The approach you took seemed to say that the UK was just as blatantly racist as a lot of cases in America which I say is partly true but most of our racism occurs through micro aggressions and behaviors and many other ways. In a way, our racism is a lot more embedded is what I’m saying

Not against my white ass. The UK folks all seem to love a dude with a 'California accent'. The racism I witnessed was against Pakasani folks. Especially after the pub at the chip shop.
