Other than the 1488 crowd wanting to be able to say ‘no blacks allowed’ in certain businesses, I’m genuinely curious what else is in there that should make it get repealed?
I personally would like it not repealed mainly because I would be personally affected by said policy obviously, but I’m curious in the reasons outside of just that, if y’all have reasons other than that, as AFAIK, the CRA violates freedom of assembly in the view of people who have that opinion.
My own views aren't as clear-cut, but let me ask you this question: do you think that business should be able to discriminate against people for not taking the Coronavirus vaccine?
In Europe, such discrimination (against folks holding a job) is banned. I guess some business owners are rabid Coronavaccine supporters, but you wouldn't know, nor does anyone have to worry about their opinions.
Is that good? Is that bad? Or neither?
Redlining wasn't about race, but about poverty. Blacks were just affected more because more blacks were poor.
No, such discrimination isn't fucking banned in Europe, in fact it was state enforced in many European countries, and just today in my country a dude got 5,5 years hard time for criticizing it (in the same country where a nigger raping a 16yo carries a two year sentence, to add some spicy context to the matter), so the whole point is moot. It already happened, and the same people who support nigger rights legislation also supported this, so fuck them, and fuck niggers, both groups should be deported to Africa as far as I'm concerned.
I suggest you calm down. I clarified my earlier comment a bit. As far as I know, not one country mandated that employers fire their employees for not taking the Coronavirus vaccine, and privacy regulations in many countries even forbid a company from knowing about it.
Regardless, let's say that it's not happening, and just state it as a pure hypothetical. Should it be allowed to fire people for refusing the coronavirus vaccine?
Multiple countries outright mandated vaccinations for various groups, employed or not. IIRC, Greece for seniors above a certain age, and Germany, Austria and Czech Republic for certain professions. In places that mandated vaccination based on field of work, failure to vaccinate would, of course, mean these people are barred from working in those fields, and therefore fired because noone's going to pay some dude who can't legally do his job. (The seniors in Greece would just get fined over and over again.)
Privacy what now? I had to stop going to the only restaurant within walking distance that isn't a shitty kebab shop, because the Ukrainian slut that waits tables there demanded to know my medical history and refused to serve me otherwise, how's that for fucking privacy regulations? That was also state-mandated, obviously, bitch didn't just one day wake up and think "today I should start asking regular customers wildly inappropriate questions", she just did what the TV told her to.
I am a little bit beyond discussing hypotheticals. I've already been treated like a kike in Nazi Germany over a cold. This is a fight against people who have only principle and that's total control, and until they're all gone I'm done discussing philosophy because they don't give a shit about anything except destroying anyone who even just appears to ever so slightly oppose them. Or just a random person, just for fun. We can talk about justice and right vs wrong after I slam dunk the last shitlib baby into a trashcan.
For medical professionals, correct?
That is unfortunate. I'd have loved to hear what people would say when anti-discrimination laws are to their benefit.
Fewer blacks were poor. A higher percentage of blacks were poor.
There are still, today, just as there have always been, more poor white people than poor black people (in the US, which is relevant because we're talking about the CRA).
The thing to me is that in 60 years of politicking they haven't changed this a bit.
White people's incomes remain average for the US.
Black peoples incomes are below that.
Black peoples incomes haven't improved.
Groups have moved up the ladder but those groups are not black or white.
The perils of imprecise language...
It doesn't matter if I think they should. They did. Still do in more than a few places.
Why does free association only go one way?
I think this isn't really a feasible example for a few reasons. Firstly, most of that was government-driven anyway, so I don't even view it as "private discrimination." There's one or two actually lunatics per, like, every thousand business owners who just wants to trade goods/services for money.
Secondly, even if they wanted to, implementation would be a pain. Are they going to check everyone entering the premises? Are they going to pay more employees to be on duty all the time, just to keep out customers? It's insane. Without a driving force - AKA the government - there's no way that naturally gets off the ground. And, just like with the CRA, I'm against the government exerting power to tell people how and with who they can do business.
I also think the protections about private data is completely different than overreach when it comes to bypassing freedom of assembly. But, even if it wasn't...yes, I'm still fine with businesses discriminating when it comes to who they let in.
As some of the other people have said, I don't want to give my money to people who hate me, anyway. If businesses were especially terrible at the height of mandates, I'm much less likely to frequent them now, even if they aren't actively kicking me out. I just won't go back to the places where they were dicks.
Absolutely let the fuckers discriminate. They're lunatics, and deserve to go out of business. Let me know who they are, so I can discriminate against them.
