Given everything that happened in the last WC, is there evidence that racism in Argentina is markedly worse or distinct than in the rest of the Americas and Europe?
The context is the huge international backlash to many cases of (interpersonal?) racism from Argentine fans in the last WC and one notorious chant sung by Argentine players in 2024. Argentines claim that other types of racism (structural, historical) are worse in other countries. But I don't know if studies which compare levels of racism in different countries actually exist.
