Alright we're moving into a politics/offtopic discussion here, lets transition the conversation back to hockey now or maybe I'll just close the thread.

So the solution is to keep the hierarchy system where white people are predominantly on top, where they can continue to apply systemic racism and just be happy with the current subset of victims?

There will always be a hierarchy - and it should be based on who is best. Anywhere there is evidence of bigotry of any kind, should be tackled via the law.

By the way, the bolded sounds a lot like Replacement Theory.

Not at all... the point is building a new hierarchy based on what victim group you fall into is still a hierarchy with winners and losers.

So you're sure he was subjected to racism, but assuming anything is race-based is speculation?

Everybody has experienced some kind of bigotry - i have... havent you? That was my point.

I never said or implied that. What I wrote was very specific.

Yes, you literally did say precisely that.

“that just because he didnt get a raise it was due to race.. thats the kind of bullshit we dont need.”

You are ignoring the fact that racism is a people thing. It’s not a white personal thing.

Who hasn’t had an instance where they were treated different because of their race? I’m not saying it’s a good thing but, shit get in line dude! That’s the world hate to break it to ya.

I’m not sure what you are saying. Are you trying to draw an equivalency between a white man getting treated with racism and a black guy. If so that just isn’t the case, because being non white disadvantages you at every level and to differing degrees depending on heritage/race. There is zero equivalency to the impact of racism.

Incidentally, I’ve never experienced being treated differently.

The United States right now is by far the land of the greatest opportunity for any color ever to exist on earth.
Free market capitalism has lifted more people out of poverty and given more people more opportunity than any system ever devised. Opportunities have never been more open to more people than right now. It is impossible to deny the massive progress of this country in those areas through all the years, and that this country has made the most progress for the most people than any in human history.

Based on what evidence? Genuinely? I find things shocking at times in the US. It’s far from perfect in the U.K. but it’s very different here.
