> I want to treat humans as humans and this is my solution towards a world without racism. I don't want to have to be nicer to a person because he or she is of black skin color. Or give special reasons in case of other skincolor, why this person did not qualify for a job. Or actually having to employ people because of their skin color. That would be racism to me, even if it might be well intentioned one.

But right now, you actually object to people saying "racism exists and affects how things turn out".

No, I object to people trying to fix racism by wanting to implement laws, that in fact are cementing racism.

Except that comment you are responding to does not call for any laws. Neither thread nor original article is not about implementing any laws.

Your own comment is literally against talking about race or focusing on it. While it does have final note about positive discrimination, the majority is not about positive discrimination.

"Except that comment you are responding to does not call for any laws. "

The applied context in this thread, does.

"The current trend among the woke crowd seems to be emphasizing importance of race, rather than trying to get past it."

I mean why are there laws getting implemented against racism in the shape of "positive discrimination" if various activists would not support it?
