Always learning on here....learned today that sexism is a form of racism? I have to read more on that, but I digress.
There are serious problems in this country most propelled by corporate greed. Corporate greed is the bane of American society. It promotes celebrity, and then uses the celebs to manipulate the populace into buying their products. Because of the culture of celebrity the country has ceded serious public policy issues to uneducated celebrities, that do not even understand the extent to which they further the very problems they claim to oppose.
The truth, and you can hide from it if you want, is that America is not race-neutral, therefore by my definition it is a racist country. The country must confront this reality and embark on a program to educate people on, and prescribe policies that promote race-neutrality.
There are too many race opportunists in this country otherwise how do the killings in Atlanta become a race issue?Answer is Opportunitism. The race opportunists latched on to the killings as their chance to get into the Race race. They see how Blacks and Latinos have used race and ethnicity to gain advantages, and they seized on this as their opportunity to get in on the action.
These are serious issues that cannot be confronted without the truth that the country has been pitting the races against each other. It has become a competition, not of ideas or merit, but race. Kamala Harris hit the trifecta - female, black, and Asian. Add her marriage to a Jewish man and her opponents for VP had no chance. Is she ready for that position? Come on now, she could not even make it to IOWA.
Asians are complaining about racism? How did Asians treat Blacks in LA when they moved into South Central. In the 80s some Asian countries had travel advisories warning their citizens to avoid Blacks and Black areas in America.
You want to solve this problem, be real about it. Don’t expect that from politicians though, they just politicize the issues.
I am a firm believer in education, in pro action and not reaction. The Democrats need to stop the overemphasis on race, the liberal media too, the GOP assuming there is still a GOP should remove their collective head from their butt and confront the issue of race not defensively but offensively. It won’t be comfortable but it should be done.
