Just look at yahoo answers. Any time anyone asks a racist question, that person is condemned in over 90% of the answers.
Yahoo answers is a perfect medium for closet racists, so if there were really that many then you'd see it in the answers.
Closet racists appear to be so numerous on the internet because they talk about race more than non-racists. In reality if the non-racists were as obsessed with talking about race, then no-one would talk about the closet racists on the internet because they would be visibly out numbered on forums all over the internet.

i disagree, i'm often shocked by the racist responces given to non racist and racist questions. maybe you're talking about the 'all blacks should be killed' sort of questions and answers. you are right about them, theyre few and far between, and get a lot of angry responces.
but there are loads of people who think that interracial relationships are wrong, and who think that black girls only date white guys for money. these arent EXTREMELY racist, dangerous veiws, but they are still politically incorrect opinions, which most people wouldnt voice in public.

No. All kinds of racists post questions or answers here. Racists are everywhere. And don't fall for the "they're all stupid rednecks," because that is so far from the truth.

Just because they aren't hiding their racism here where anonymity makes it relatively safe), it doesn't mean they are not hiding it elsewhere -- out in the real world. Racism is alive and well. It's not just some part of our history. Current social norms have forced it to be more underground, but it's still with us. Not only in the attitudes of individuals but within our institutions as well.

No, yet I choose i ought to SAY that i'm stunned. The racial divide is as deep as ever; it has basically moved below the exterior simply by fact the days whilst the KKK ran rampant and my dad replaced into crushed (at age 14) and left for lifeless. His "crime" replaced into that he looked White human beings in the attention. i'm basically grateful that Daddy chosen to no longer coach his toddlers to hate. In modern reminiscence however, human beings began popping out of the closet whilst the (GW) Bush administration took over. My concept is that considering that lots of Black human beings have been prevented from vote casting (i replaced into considered one of them in the Atlanta section), the racists felt extra soft to declare what they have been relatively questioning. I even have by no potential been stated as a "Ni gg er" lots in my entire life! All I might desire to do is say, whilst conservatives are latest, that I oppose the Iraq conflict. I even have given speeches everywhere in the US approximately my motives, simply by fact the spouse and the mummy of squaddies, that I oppose the Iraq conflict. i won't be in a position to communicate to the racism coming from Blacks in direction of Whites. i do no longer tolerate all people doing such unfavourable and divisive issues around me, and my pals and co-workers know it. u.s. HAS to heal; we can't shop going against God's will this way, for we are lacking lots of our advantages as a rustic.

I think most people are generally good. The bad people are just louder.
