Friendly reminder. We are living in 2019. There is no institutional racism. There hasn't been for a very long time. But, that doesn't mean that bigotry isn't rearing its ugly head... it is. Ideas are under attack. The thought police are watching you.

But I can literally point out institutional racism... But we all know you're not serious, by now, so... Yeah, there's that.
Honestly, point it out to me. Show me some documentation where it is explicitly in the policy of a major American institution to be racist. I would like to see it if it exists and I will be right there with you fighting it.

Institutional does not mean explicitly written. It means that it is embedded into the institution of this country. How many non white men has been president since the country was stolen and fought over? That, my friend, is the "institution" of which we speak... How long since

The problem with that theory is that there is no way to prove racism or for me to disprove it unless we use what is explicit. If I were accused to being a thief, you'd need proof. If you accused my organization of institutional thievery, you'd need to show that it was codified.

Non whites and women have been legally eligible to vote? Come on, man, why fight so hard against that which is as plain as your skin on a dark night?

Does not the fact we are still having these conversations in 2019 mean nothing to you?
