When you see a racial group under-perform, why is your automatic assumption that this is 100% determined by "systemic racism"?
Have you considered alternatives, and if so, why have you dismissed them?
For example, in the United States, jedi whites are much wealthier than non-jedi whites. By your logic, this would have to be the result of systemic racism against non-jedi white people, if you considered no other alternatives for group differences.

Your logic says money rules all and that it’s an indicator of a real man. I disagree.
Is there a single reason you can think of to explain why asian murder rates are lower than whites ones, while black ones are higher?
I usually find progressives to attribute everything positive about asians and jedis to hard work, and everything negative about blacks to systemic racism.

It's not an automatic assumption, you idiot, it is a summary of everything else I already posted.

I looked at Obbe's wall of text and thanked it because it mentioned the indian act which is interesting in its racistness. The Canadian government also used to chemically sterilize native women who ended up in psyche wards until the mid 90's. Canada's system was so fucking british colonial in its design it's amazing it flew in the western hemisphere.

Ummm to have systemic racism you have to have it ingrained in your society as a way of life for hundreds of years, or it’s not systemic. It may not be exactly hundreds of years, but you get my point. Asians and j3ws were never slaves in our society. That’s where our systemic racism started.
you're mixing up your 'privileges' there.
it's debateable whether asians could be considered slaves considering how they were treated building the railroads and during the gold rush, but it's not really relevant - Rabbit was saying that asians and jedis are (per capita) significantly overrepresented in the highest wealth brackets and positions of power (ie. government positions, media etc.).
If whites are only (generally) wealthier than blacks due to systemic racism, can you not make the argument that asians and jedis are wealthier than whites due to systemic racism?

In the not so distant past:
blacks were not allowed to ride with whites on railroads
allowed to live on certain streets unless one could marry the majority of the residents (blacks could not marry whites)
blacks could not enter through certain doorways, work in the same rooms, or were excluded from union jobs
in certain towns blacks could not leave their homes after 10pm
In North Carolina blacks had to use a different set of textbooks. In Florida those separate textbooks couldn't even be stored together. Hell Atlanta courts had two different bibles. One for white witnesses and one for black witnesses.
360,000 black men served in WW1. When they came home they were getting lynched while still in uniform.
But all that is ancient ancient history and nobody feels that way anymore. Obviously. So systemic racism is just a made up term by the J'ewish media. Lolz

Systematic racism ended in the 60's with the repeal of segregation etc. It doesn't exist anymore.
Stay in school. Work hard. Don't do drugs. Wake up early. Show me a black man that does that, and I'll show you a successful black man.

there are still policies that disproportionately affect blackers, but all the tears about 'no black disney princesses' and the like are fake and gay
