I think it's cute that you think racism would go away because some dramatic world events happened

Even putting aside how often major events are ignored in the MCU for the sake of moment to moment plot.

IF aliens turned up and blew up Chille. Racist people will still be racist.

Hell a black guy with Superpowers would trigger hundreds of millions of people worldwide.

Bigotry is irrational.

In fact there's precedent for this.

In WW1 America gave out pamplets to the Allied Forces in Western Europe (mainly English, Belgian, French) telling them to stop being nice to the black American soldiers because it would give them ideas about ending segregation.

While hundreds of thousands of people were dying in trenches and fighting across multiple continents by the millions. The American government was literally going "Oh shit, the French are talking to black dudes! We gotta put a stop to that!"

But I'm rambling. Again I'll point out, if you're that bothered by a racist fictional character in a TV show, take 12 seconds to imagine being a victim of racism frequently in real life

Your perspective is off/ You're mad at the wrong thing.

Edit: I meant Belgium not Poland excuse me

Which was all just humans. There's a difference with dramatic events being only on earth and only taking place with humans vs aliens from outer space invading multiple times and people with super powers as well as murdering AIs being invented. I mean you literally brought up an example from over a 100 years ago during segregation as to why racism would still exist today if aliens invaded. It was a completely different time and is silly at best to use it as 'proof.'
