Systematic Racism.

What "policies" or "institutions" in today's America are specifically designed to be discriminatory, or oppressive towards blacks and other minorities?

If there are any, to what purpose is there in limiting the rights and privileges of minorities?

There's been concentrated efforts by the GOP to make it harder for minorities to vote, since usually only dying old white people and Christian morons vote republican these days.

Backfire's example is probably the best if you are looking for outright racist policy in government. Others are different treatment of drugs based on the demographics of their users.

There are none that are as outward as they used to be, but that doesn't mean that there isn't systematic oppression of minorities. (both by policy and by society and culture)

There'sa lot of overlap in that Venn diagram.

Demarcates are angels from heaven, and Republicans are devils from the 9th hell.

These two and the fact that the world is flat are the great truths of stupidity.

Democrats do a lot of shit, but the Republicans are actively worse for people, they cause a lot of things that negatively impacts real people (generally oppressed people). Democrats are by no means a good party at all, they just look pretty appealing if your only other choice is what Republicans are doing now.

You're right. I forgot another important group. Poor people who vote against their own self interest because they are delusional and think that they will one day be rich.

Probably find racists in immigration and other area's where there are vulnerable people.

I love those people.

Good, bad, who cares, but in the last 100 years (or else you'd throw "Lincoln was a Republican" at me), which party do you think has done more positives for minorities in America?

Racism is really a form of loss. I'm pretty sure it won't survive.

I don't think one party is better then the other. I think both parties want you to believe that the other party is the devil.

I don't think I can explain this to you in a way you will understand, but let me give it a go:

Both parties are stuck in the lower worlds.

Let me try again:

Both parties are made up of politicians, and politicians are bad.

Why are they bad? Because they are stuck in the lower worlds.

See, I told you that I can't explain it to you in a way you would understand.

One last try:

You are being lied to by both parties.

The urge to correct OP on 'systematic' is overwhelming. It technically works, but it's also likely not what he thought he was going for. I guess I'm that guy.

I'm not asking you which party is better than the other and I understand your "lower world" bit, this isn't our first dance.

I'm asking you: in the last 100 years, which party do you think has done more positives for minorities in America? This is regardless of any and all politicians being is some 'lower' realm of hunger or what have you.

Positive as apposed to negative? Why divide the world into good and evil? Are you a Christian?

To answer your question:

In my opinion, over the last 100 years, both parties have been stuck in the lower worlds. From time to time, there have been a few leaders who have risen about into the higher worlds. These are people who have represented both parties, but have over come the craggier of ignorance that dominates the political parties.

I clearly said before "good, bad, who cares". So good and bad isn't something I'm talking about.

That's not answering my question though. I asking you which party in the last 100 years has done more for minorities that has had positive outcomes. eg fair voting rights, equal opportunities in employment, equal pay for equal work, as a few examples.

edit.

That's not answering my question though. Unless you're somehow implying that both parties have equally strived to better minorities/their situation in America in the last 100 years?

No! Both parties are selfish, and never do anything for anyone else unless you threaten then.

Both parties have equally strived to better their pockets. Minorities have nothing to do with it. Anything good that has happened for minorities is despite the political parties.

The reason for this is because they are stuck in the lower worlds.

What does "stuck in the lower worlds" mean?
