There is plenty of racism in Naruto. Jinchuriki were treated like scum. Tobirama was outright racist against the Uchiha clan.

Difference is all you mentioned is in-universe racism. It's racism happening in the story but my point is racism.from author's side

How do you know he was a racist? Maybe he was just not pc enough?

You know the Second didn't push away any other clans, he welcomed everyone, not just the Senjus, it was just the Uchihas he had issues with cus he thought they were dangerous.

The moment he saw Sasuke, he immediately told him that since he is an Uchiha, he has been possessed of evil and raised his power. He also warned Hashirama against the Uchihas. He had a vendetta against this clan. How is it not racist?

Truth hurts, he was just being honest, not a bigot.

Nah he was racist or rather scared of the Uchiha infinite potential. He said it, They awaken a power not even the Senju can rival.

Black people irl can be naturally born with blonde hair and they aren’t biracial and can also have every eye color also. Kishimoto isn’t racist for their hair color.

I don't think the author is racist for hair colour. Real racism is when you're outcasted from a restaurant based on your skin/hair colour that's purpotedly a passive trait of a certain race and you identify them by in. For example curly hair is associated with the black american race. Blond hair is associated with caucasians.

Kishimoto's only issue as far as I've observed is demeaning of female gender and outright misogynistic viewpoints that is observed in countless instances in his manga. That's absurd, cause japan is a country with the lowest gender-based discrimination surprisingly.

He just added the darker characters in a bit later and yes Killer Bee was a bit of a stereotype but nah I disagree there’s no racism in his manga that’s evident to me. You should get out though.. black people come in many different skin tones, hair textures, eye colors and yes hair colors.. why do you think we’re the most beautiful people on the earth?

I never see black people with blond hair I mean natural blond unless he she is albino which doesn't count because it's a mutation or something and I respect your opinion but I think Asians are the most beautiful in the world beauty is not a fact you know Xddd

They exist though, whether you’ve seen them or not.

They look like blonde Egyptians tbh, as far as the rapping goes, it’s one of kishis best nods to pop culture in the series, killer b? And he raps? Someone liked wu-tang, and you can’t hate on that
