That might be an oversimplification of pointing out that in the history of the US (and probably the world) white people have had power most of the time and can be held accountable for most of the problems because of that. Naturally they did good things too. But it's our nature (I think) to look at the bad and try to fix those or stop them from happening again.

Admittedly when I see race-baiter such as the OP and those that champion such stances I cringe and hope that society in general is more open-minded. The OP makes a good living looking for racism in society and exploits it when it is and is not their. There are those that eat that shit up.

Again, I think if we looked at the regular posters you'd see a more fair representation across the political spectrum than you want to give it credit for.

I'd argue that there are better discussions here than in the "general public" (in general) because of the diversity of posters. Sure there is the occasional outburst and the one or two who want to follow each other around and troll but overall it's a good place for discussion.

Maybe that's just the way I see it.
