It is a shame that this progress stalled and perhaps even reversed to some extent in the aftermath of the 1960s.
That's the period I was referring to. I thought it was obvious but I should have been more specific. You're right they were making progress up to that point. Back then it was far less common for an 18 year old black man to have multiple children with multiple women. They also didn't worship ghetto culture.
The favoritism is mostly applicable to the top tier, which is pushed over the top. A black janitor isn't benefiting from it
It does mostly favor the top tier, but a black janitor could take advantage if he were willing to put in the effort.
I agree favoritism doesn't help the group it intends to help. Many individuals within the group will benefit, but overall it's destructive.
Tbh that just makes it all the more frustrating for people like me. If the favoritism led to a more productive and less violent black community, I might even support it (for a period of time, and again this is hypothetical) because America cannot survive with a black community like the one we currently have.

Yes, it did seem like the most likely meaning, but I wasn't entirely sure.

Not every janitor is able to go learn to code. Some people are just born with the capability of being a great janitor, rather than a coder. My point is that these things always end up aiding the people who are already very well off, generally at the expense of lower-class Asians and whites.

I think it can. The violence of the black community generally harms blacks and poor whites, not anyone who 'counts' in the estimation of the ruling classes. The greatest threat to America, in my estimation, is not the violence of the black community, but the identitarianism that tears the country literally apart.
You don't have to code to take advantage. Any black person could move to Seattle or Portland where companies are desperate to hire more black people, and get hired in any number of entry level roles. They'd have to kill someone to get fired, and they'll get promoted over more qualified people.
But still you're right that it mostly favors well-off black people.

Moving to Seattle or Portland is reserved for the most privileged people, because home prices have skyrocketed so much due to bad policies. It's funny that while explicit anti-black policies did not succeed at keeping them out, San Francisco succeed in driving out half its black population by enacting policies that result in higher cost of housing.

I can agree with that, at least for now.
