America is fricking awesome. I love this country. Never been a better one in which to be a minority in the history of the planet.
I agree that the US is the Best country for minorities.
However the frame we expect to see racism in has changed. Racism is most likely not going to come in the pre 1970s form of lynch mobs, racial slurs, mistreatment by lack of service etc.
Those are visible and therefore the easiest forms of racism to do away with. Real racism today comes in forms that are alot more subtle.
Being stopped on the street when you didn't do anything suspicious, etc.

Or being passed over for a job that you are more qualified for. Or being denied acceptance to a school when you have a higher GPA. I agree, racism is alive and well in some parts of society.

Stop and realize what you just said. 1970 was NOT that long ago. Hell, my parents were born in '61. The culture shift in a scant 3-4 decades is fricking STAGGERING by any metric. Nigh unprecedented in world history. That cannot be understated.

You do realize that this happens to whites, too, correct? The vast majority of the time when it happens to minorities, it's because other idiot minorities committed some crime. What, are we supposed to just tell LEOs not to stop someone that matches a description because someone might get mad? That's unrealistic, and not a good example of racism. Certainly not worthy of any sort of comparison to pre or even immediate post-civil rights era.

This happens to many blacks because employers are scared of the repercussions if they ever have to fire a black employee. Democrats pushing this bullshite are holding them back, not helping them. And I don't consider it racism on the employers part. Why open yourself up to that? Treat everyone the same and everyone will get treated the same.

Unintended consequences. We should end identity politics. The US has evolved past this nonsense.

Eh, you might want to do a little research before you try to defend bullshite.
They even received an award on one of their bogus papers.
This is from a 25 year old peer reviewed academic journal. shite that academics use as references.
Wake up, this isn't fringe "Fox news" stuff. This is what is being passed off as legitimate research, and being taught at major universities.

You are poison. Your thought process is poison. Your constant search for an external force driving your community's failures is poison.
Every thread I see you post you are constantly looking for an external reason for your struggles or some overarching system you can break down to justify your failures or perceived inequities.
Stop looking. Buy a mirror.

It's the process of identifying a target, preaching the lie and then removing them from existence... same process worked for Hitler when he preached against the Jews and took power.

This happens to white people all the time. It's probably far more dependent on how you're dressed and how you're acting.
You just never hear about white people being stopped on the street.

Jealousy is a bitch.
You should edit to add that our army keeps the peace in many countries, our navy keeps the oceans open and free for transit and trade.
We also send aid to many countries, many of whom do not support us but we see it as the humanitarian thing to do.
I guess that is why we are such horrible people.
