Literally nobody has any problem with non-white people. It's not 1920, seek therapy.

I am sure blanket denialism of racism does wonders in the pro-racism circles, but you and I both know you don't have the balls to tell this lie in person

How do you measure racism? It's a very important question.

"Let's stop racism!" is obviously a goal everyone should aspire to (and already does), but nobody can ever seem to articulate what that means or how it could possibly be measured. Do you envision some ideal scenario where somebody declares "okay, racism is now over!"? Who would that person be, and how would they know?

Desegregation. Desegregation measurably reduces racist attitudes and feelings of racial discomfort in general. This has been known for more than a century. And, not just racial but also religious or ethnic animus.

In some scenarios desegregation is an effectively impossible task. Segregation is built into urban areas. How does one undo that? There are other limits to this solution set as well. How can Mormons ever truly live among us? No one knows.


So you just asked, how do you measure it and how to you fix it. Segregation/desegregation is a long-proven indicator of likelihood/unlikelihood of racial/ethnic/etc. problems. Macro and macro scale.


We good?

I agree segregation is bad. So does everyone else.

When your meal ticket is "fighting racism" you have a perverse incentive to ignore when progress occurs; hence modern libs pretending it's still the 1960s.

Yeah all 20 of them and everyone hates their guts, rightfully so. In a country of 330mil, twenty tiki guys doesn't seem like a huge deal. Especially when everyone hates their guts.

See, in a racist country, those guys would be celebrated and not condemned by literally everybody.

That is a very weak copout. This question was also just as vague when we literally had human slaves in this country.

I have almost no respect for you, but now I have less.
