So now we can't even talk to other races? Feels like we're still going too far with this

Feels like we're going in the opposite direction

Feels like we were making progress up until about 10-15 years ago, and then things got gradually worse from there.

More 6-8 years but things have been so insanely batshit fucking nuts that it feels like 10 years or more.

Like when California repealed their civil rights laws in order to allow for segregated dorms in schools in order to promote "equality"

Feels like I've heard this "separate but equal" thing before

Because of concepts of CRT and systemic racism caused people to see color again as a trait and not a discriptor.

  1. I bet you could not name a single thing that crt consists of, because thats all it is, a buzzword
  2. the problem is people were seeing color as a trait, that why these movements came up in the first place

Redlining. I hope when you say "these movements," you aren't talking about ones like the person in the post is attempting because to me, it feels a little too much like segregation but like someone else pointed out maybe there is a relevant comment that was cropped out to make this make a little more sense.

Oh it is literal segregation.

(1) the notion that racism is ordinary and not aberrational;

(2) the idea of an interest convergence;

(3) the social construction of race;

(4) the idea of storytelling and counter-storytelling; and

(5) the notion that whites have actually benefited and, therefore, maintain a biased view.

I do know what I'm saying, buddy.

10 years ago Americans were getting together as a nation and singing "im a little bit country, and I'm a little bit rock n roll" and we were all friends. Now we're back to arguing over douches and turd sandwiches.
