So because acknowledging the problem will not produce concrete action, let's not acknowledge the problem? But let's also not acknowledge the problem because it might lead to actions we don't like?

Look, it's ok to say that we don't care about the problem and leave it at that.

[b]Problem acknowledged[/b]. Good work everyone. We did it! [/quote]

Really? Lots of Youngkin voters would tend to disagree. [/quote]

Ask them, "is racism still a problem in the United States?" and I'll bet most of them would agree that it is. [/quote]

And then they would say that white people are the victim. [/quote]

White people are the worst. [/quote]

But there is no racism against white people[/quote]

Nope, we redefined racism at the last meeting. [b]Racism is impossible against a dominant racial group. [/b]Also, non-white people are rubber and white people are glue. [/quote]

That's not a redefinition. That you misunderstood the term previously doesn't mean it has been redefined.[/quote]

2: racial prejudice or discrimination

This definition has fallen out of fashion, as the current definition is more like prejudice plus power[/quote]

That’s why you need a class for CRT, to learn the “updated” meaning of the words in English language.[/quote]

Or you could, I don't know, spend 5 seconds googling the word "racism" if you're unclear what it means.[/quote]

Every person knows what racism is. It follows from the golden rule, do to others what you would have them do to you. It is part of out tradition of equality under the rule of law etc.

[b]The CRT proponents are dishonest because they use this universally accepted foundation to push for preferential treatment for *some* minorities they deem in need of help from the state.[/b] The equality principle of the golden rule is replaced with equity, typically just to cover a selfish interest in profiting from the good intent or guilt tripping of others. Look no further than the murky finances of BLM, to get a glimpse of splurging on lavish mansions under the guise of fighting racism. At least the public is waking up to this ruse.[/quote]

That ... is not what CRT is.

Maybe you shouldn't participate in this conversation anymore since you obviously don't understand what's being discussed.[/quote]

This is so typical for CRT proponents. First they say only their lived experience matters, if you’re black talking about racism your opinion is gospel. If you’re white, you should shut up. At the same time black people are “exhausted” explaining their plight over and over again, but deserve some societal benefits from the rest like affirmative action, reparations etc. It is so self serving it’s ridiculous. Even more so when the claim is made by solidly middle class people that cry adversity while sipping their latte. Any counter argument is discounted because either it is racist or one didn’t truly understand the point in question. [/quote]

Agree only certain voices are deemed valid. This feels so antithetical to the way I was raised. Everything becomes an echo chamber of the minority viewpoints; meanwhile the rest grow exhausted. [/quote]
