Things that are so obvious and ingrained that no one even thinks about them.
Here’s a few:
All US americans can go to Mexico EASILY. You’re supposed to have a passport but you don’t even need one (for car/foot crossing). Versus, it’s really hard for Mexicans, who aren’t wealthy, to secure a VISA to enter the US. I’m sure there are corollaries in other geo-regions.
Another one is wealthy countries having access to vaccines far ahead of “poor” countries.
In US, we might pay lip service to equal child-hood education but most of the funding pulls from local taxes so some kids might receive ~$10000 in spending while another receives $2000. I’m not looking it up at the moment, but I’m SURE there are strong racial stratas.

This infographic will never not be egg on the face of its creators.
According to WHO total COVID deaths in China were just over 10% the number of US COVID deaths despite China having greater than 4x the population. I’m not a math expert by any means but I calculate around 40x fewer deaths per capita in China compared to the US. Yet somehow China was determined to be less prepared for a pandemic than much of the west![emoji thonk thonk](https://www.hexbear.net/pictrs/image/922fe80d-74f6-43b6-a4e1-c74dbc4df512.png)
And it started in China
