> these issues have been solved a long time ago where I live

I can't think of anywhere where that is true, but perhaps you can give us examples, even of places besides where you live.

Usually I hear similar claims from people who are not directly targeted by the discrimination. They don't see it and (IME) don't want to have to deal with it.

Racism must pass endless barriers to belief. No matter how great the evidence, people seem to demand more.

> as it stands these continuous attempts to bring up race at every opportune moment

Listen to yourself. Your exaggerations and name-calling say more about your own internal state of mind then they do about the world.

What can you learn about yourself?

Please don't take HN threads further into flamewar, regardless of how wrong someone else is or you feel they are. It only makes everything worse. Crossing into personal attack is particularly not cool.

Thinking racism has been a "solved" problem for a "long time" is just incredibly naive. Have you considered historical injustice still effect the present day? Have you considered other people's experiences when they tell you racism still exists and has a major impact on their lives?
