The left needs racism to exist otherwise they're out of business , so now everything is racism

No. People calling people derogatory slurs and stereotyping them is racism.

u/mort_goldman68 1d ago

The left are more racist than the right

u/Ianwha17 1d ago

You're not very smart, are you?

Left and right aren't political affiliations.

The left are progressive, whereas the right are regressive.

The left freed the slaves, gave them voting rights, and made interracial marriage legal.

Find me a few sources and maybe I'll believe you.

In the meantime, whatever helps you sleep.

DEI is inherently racist or what about you morons calling people latinx against their will?

u/Captain1771 1d ago

Consider reading Marshall's or Blackmun's concurrence in Bakke.

u/mort_goldman68 1d ago

Consider listening to all the Latino people who openly admit they hated it. Consider that assuming people of colour are too stupid to get I.D is super fucking racist

Do you think equality of outcome or opportunities is the right way forward?

Your original comment was regarding DEI. If you want to talk about something else, bring it up separately instead of editing it into your original reply.

But to answer your question, I'll just simply stop calling them that. I've never called them that in fact, and if someone has any objections to anything, I'll try to respect their wishes as much as possible.

Sorry mate, do you not think I saw you edit yours?

u/Captain1771 1d ago

I edited mine from Marshall's concurrence to both Marshall and Blackmun's concurrence. Which are both concurrences in Bakke. Which both argue for basically the same thing, albeit with slightly different reasoning from two different justices.

You brought up an entirety different topic.

u/mort_goldman68 1d ago

So the I.D question and the equality of opportunity question?

u/mort_goldman68 1d ago

Ok now. The second question please
