Racism as a tourist is very different than racism as a citizen. And racism presents very differently depending on your race. You’re not white, but the racists in England and Canada (and probably France, but I don’t have experience with that) will treat East Asians, South Asians, brown people, and black people very differently. They might even like you if you’re a tourist - they just don’t want you to live in their country.

I’m not White. I have been to Britain. I can honestly say Britain is probably one of the most open-minded and tolerant countries in the world.
My native country is far FAR more racist than Canada, France or Britain. Actual Racism. Actual hatred. Not “I had a bad day, it’s maybe racism”.
You said both these things. They make no sense together and seem to show no awareness of the context of your comments. Are you an AI?
