also: "everyone just chills out about racial stuff" means B1) White people stop being racist, or B2) Minorities learn to get comfortable with oppression? Cause those are the only ways race is going away!

I... don't think everybody chilled out about racial stuff in California, lol. And if they did, given the state of California's prison system, it was clearly B2.

That, and exclusionary housing policy (which gets sold as ant-racist!!). But I mean, California is a LOT better than in the 80s and 90s...like, a LOT. Surely that counts for something?

absolutely. Counts for a lot. These less-racist coastal places are TONS better than a lot of other places. Not enough that I'd consider it healthy grounds for all Californians to warmly embrace America.

I feel like a lot of people think racism is this taint that we can expunge in a single generation, perhaps with a Revolution. Whereas I see it as an endemic disease, to be ground down over centuries. I'm happy to see any progress. And California has had some progress!

I think we can ameliorate the effects of racism very very quickly by coercing better behavior from governments and racists which merely requires a 67% supermajority of political power in the United States!! Nbd, super achievable right?? Emerging majority ftw!!

but yeah, absolutely every step forward is a step forward and to disrespect that is to disrespect the activists and martyrs who worked and suffered to make it better.
