      If someone isn't willing to accept even this much, there's no point in us having a conversation. You may as well try to talk to a marine biologist while not believing in the existence of fish.

      With the slight difference that a biologist can coherently define the term "fish", which I'm pretty sure you couldn't to with the term "patriarchy". That said: Do you realize that you sound pretty much like a religious zealot? Holy scripture, dogmatism and all that stuff? ಠ_ಠ

      Carolyn, whether or not what you claim is true or not, you and folks like you sound an awful lot like religious zealots who tell me the existence of god is a fact and that I should read William Lane Craig. What you assert should be provable, and not just "accepted".

      That's not the point. What we're talking about is not if "sexism exists", but if western society as a whole is sexist or racist. Those two things aren't even in the same conceptual sandbox. That said: Why the fuck should this be "white"?

      Brown children are being tortured in concentration camps on the American border. Unarmed black people are routinely murdered by white cops who are then found innocent in court. The news media barely batted an eye at the latest story of Trump sexually assaulting a woman.

      The burden of proof should absolutely be on those who somehow still believe that "western society" is NOT, as a whole, sexist, racist, and a whole lot of other fucked up shit.

      "as a whole"? No. You've just established that things are less than perfect, which isn't disputed. You have all your work ahead of you presenting something that is meaningful and testable, and then demonstrating it.

      Also, I'm told all the time that the burden was actually on the nonbeliever due to things that so *obviously* confirmed a creator. But just as biology taught us that the appearance of design is explained without a designer, so too do social issues often have hidden causes.

      And if you think western society has issues with racism and sexism, I have really bad news for you about almost every other country on the planet

      The fact that it's far worse in other places doesn't mean that it's hunky dory here, not by any stretch, or that fighting to make the culture that we live in better isn't a moral imperative.

          I agree, and I'm also glad you acknowledge that it's far worse in other places, since I've often encountered activists reluctant to do so. We've countless things in need of fixing - I live in the UK and it's hardly rosy here either - but I also think we should be grateful.

          We can be grateful that things aren't even more unjust than they are and still fight tooth and nail for them to be more just.

          1) You can't solve a problem if you conceptualize it the wrong way. It's just not sufficient to be "against racism/sexism", you have to be also honest with your analysis. 2) Yes, it does, because humans don't naturally exist in some utopia were everything is great.
