Well this is where the impasse starts, as when you described your perspective on systemic racism to me you described what I believe to be a racist perspective which actively supports systemic racism.Quote:

He is catering to people who, like you, I believe would like to reinstitute systemic racism, so long as it's not spelled out as such.

If you are representative of that demographic, the reason they are tired of everything being called racist is because they have no conception of what racism is.Quote:

And he is not trying to hurt anyone.
Trump's agenda is to do what is best for the country as a whole. It is then up to you, whoever "you" may be, to fit in and take advantage of what is there. It's all on you.
He doesn't pass policies for anyone or any group in particular. He does if for the nation as a whole. If you can't make it based on what is out there, then that is on you.
The dems keep "helping" various groups. Any time, money, effort, legislation etc. is directed towards a particular group it is done so by taking away from other groups. A set aside for in government contracts for minorities is unfair to black, white or whatever group. Same with college admission preferences, housing preferences etc
Trump sees us as all the same. Opportunity is out there for all…not one person or group in particular. Some people just can't make it.
And, like I said, most people just cannot see this.
Then why is none of what he's doing actually helping America?
No I would not like to reinstitute systemic racism regardless of how it is spelled out. Even more so, if I were in favor of any law which negatively impacted a group of people, I’d want it stated out in plain English.Quote:

If you can't see that, your head is so far up Trump's *** that you can't even process basic information.
So he caters to people like you? Those that think racism is make believe? :laugh2:Quote:

That's what you want, but that's not what you'll get. Hasn't been the case since the 80's. Dont let them fool you.Quote:
