If you think that you’d be treated differently entering USA in undesignated point of entry… You’d be right. If you didn’t get shot on the spot, you’d rot in jail for decades until somebody decides to deal with your case.
The US is not a safe place for anyone especially POC.

Lol. I’m white passing. I can tell you with certainty that the danger is disproportionately aimed at one side of the Melanin scale. (It isn’t the side I inhabit, btw.)
Okay cool you can say that as much as you want, but there are documented cases demonstrating that this effects everyone in the US or attempting to enter.
I even acknowledged already that POC are disproportionately affected in my last comment. Why are you trying to manufacture an argument?

I came to make a joke about the over abundance of American racism.
You: Well akshually…
Unfortunately it’s hard to tell it’s a joke these days when my country is being an absolute shithole and doing these bad things.
You could have started by saying you meant it as a joke. Tone doesn’t translate to text
