It is amusing to see Australia receive zero votes; the White Australia policy and the Pacific Solution should have raised a few eyebrows. Same for South America: from Pizarro's conquest of the Incas there has been constant exploitation of the aboriginal ethnicities.

But the poll results were inevitable once one used an arbitrary definition like "continent", no? There is conflict between a human categorisation and a geographical one, and to mend it we equate racism with one cause like lack of development. Not to mention that racism should be categorically unjust, making such comparisons meaningless.
