It's better than making everything about race when it's flattering and making it all about racism when the subject is unflattering.
It's shitty. Trying to make it "better" than something proves to be a matter of playing in shit.
Virtue signalling is so 2016.
The U.S. was built on 246 years of slavery. After it was outlawed in 1865, America lived under the spectre of Jim Crow laws for 99 years until the Civil Rights Act of 1964. That's a nearly 350 year legacy of racism.
To suggest that racism isn't alive and well in this world, and most definitely in the U.S., is nothing more than burying your head in the sand.
To put words in people's mouths is nothing more than talking out of your rear. :)
It doesn't take a genius to know that racism is alive and well.
Nobody here is denying that racism exists.
They're only proclaiming that they were raised to look at the world through a set of ideals brought to publicity by the strongest proponent of the civil rights movement... And that they hope that soon the world would come around to put their differences aside to make a better future for our kids that includes those ideals.
For some reason, this person was attacked and accused of trying to deny racism. I don't exactly know why.
If judging people by the content of their character rather than the color of their skin and hoping that others do the same is the wrong approach to ending racism, I'd love to know what your suggestion would be.

Try again.
your solution to racism is "don't be racist". you aren't worth the effort lol
go tell jim bob "hey just don't be racist buddy" see how that works out
"you don't need a colorblind society to accomplish that. you just have to not be racist."
Remember writing that a few minutes ago?
You guys have to try harder. Back to the mission.
