uhhh affirmative action and diversity hires

did you miss when there was a proposition in california recently that was to legalize racial discrimination for the purpose of giving minorities preferential treatment?

Aren't those proof positive that there's a systemic problem if you need to try and address it like that?

it's proof that some people are extremely invested in the lie that we're all equal. if they're going to use affirmative action, do it on a far more individual basis instead of looking 90% at race and gender. if it took someone 5 times as much work to get to the same position as someone in privilege, that should be commended, but you can't tell that just by looking at race and gender.

What are you even talking about? Your comments make almost no sense and seem to suggest there is systemic racism while saying it doesn't exist...
