> USA has this strange notion where they group people by skin color and call that race
No, we don’t. (There's two races where one of the common, not-generally-offensive names for each refers to a color, but people identified and identifying with each of those races have a wide range of skin colors, overlapping with those of most other races in both cases.)

Correct, most people do not believe that skin color define them or their neighbor. The notion also generally does not make much sense, as Americans are incredibly racially mixed.
However, a very aggressive and powerful minority that believe in critical social justice are enforcing racial stereotypes.
To say you are defined by race is a bit like saying you are defined by nose size. It is an arbitrary trait amongst many.

That is the Coinbase CEOs experience. People generally falsify preferences in public in order to not offend any Critical Social Justice activist that may ruin their life for saying the wrong thing.
However, generally Americans are friendly and welcoming people that just want to live a good simple family life next to good neighbors of any creed.
