I really wonder if we will be able to move past this issue within my lifetime

The racism or the social media nonsense?

The racism. People will always be assholes, but I wonder if the fixation on skin tone will go away. You'd think it would lessen as western societies becomes more mixed.

It's an issue of conditioning sadly. Society says it wants us to unify, but at every opportunity, it's a them versus us thing. The foreigners, the poles, the left, etc.
