Right, the goal is to stop preferring white people over everyone else.

Your second point is a straw man. I did not argue for that.

What about having no preference based on skin color?

Oh you didn't want for asians to join whites as the non-desirables? We're just collateral damage?

Look, I get what you're trying to say, that white people have been preferences for so long that we need to even the playing field. But clearly, putting arbitrary requirements for race for positions in school or jobs is racist. It's shocking that the right is battling the left to not prefer one race over another.

Would be nice, but we have a whole lot of innate human, societal and historical biases we are still working through before we get there.

Literally whatever you are saying after my quote about you straw manning me is again… just a straw man and putting words in my mouth.

Whatever personal grievances you have you can stop taking them out on a random stranger.

Look I'm just trying to argue that we should treat people equally, regardless of race.

If you have a problem with that, I think you need to look in the mirror at the issue.

Brother nothing I have said disagrees with you on that.

Actually, you arguing to prefer people for a position based on their race is directly at odds with what I have to say on that.

If you’re just going to talk past me to argue with yourself you don’t need social media to do that you can just go talk to yourself in the mirror - you might enjoy it more.
