You can see horror upon horror just treking in the states. Whether you choose to, or more importantly, whether that is USEFUL to you is key.
Societies and cultures are complex systems. There are a lot of historical biases (e.g. castes even in the states) that are fairly easy to identify if you are looking. But for most people, I think, it is not worth stressing over aspects of the world that they have little ability to change. Why be unhappy?
> But you can see far more greatness, goodness, and humanity if you so choose. Which shall it be?
Unhappy critical people like some of us will see more because it is there to see. Many choose not to see it, because that is how cognitive dissonance makes people happier. Whatever world view works for you is the best one to have, I guess.
