What you see in football does not represent a continent, though. Where I live in Europe there are people of many races, but I have only heard the word race (in my native language) used only a handful of times in my entire life. Inequality via poverty is a thing, though.

He doesnt disclose where hes from because it is likely and ethno-homogenous state and would therefore ruin his bullshit bad faith argument.
Or he could be INDIAN and doesnt want to be criticized about the caste system lol.
I'm not sure where you're located, but as an American fan of European football, it seems like race is still very much an issue on other continents and not just as a proxy for some other inequality. Just in the last week, there have been at least two instances in the top 5 leagues of fans racially abusing players[1]. Maybe the US is too focused on race (I don't think so), but saying "no one uses it" seems like an indication of the opposite problem.
