I know it’s pointless to say but if every other racial group can voluntarily segregate then so can whites. Yes I know that is me being silly and logical but I feel people should be free to voluntarily integrate or segregate
With the civil rights act I can see the government saying we won’t discriminate but it does violate free association. Goldwater’s concerns were correct. Especially with the adding of “gender identity”
The civil rights act should be repealed. I should have the freedom to hire whoever I want. Why freedom of association ends at personal relationships is beyond me.
Even discussing government actions alone, the Civil Rights act and 14th amendments somehow started demanding racism once the legal system added "disparate impact" theory to the mix. A naive reading of the laws would make you think any Black man and any White man must be treated equally by the government. The courts don't see it that way. They look at the outcomes of government programs over entire "classes" of people. If the outcomes are different, that is seen as evidence that Blacks and Whites were treated differently, so the government must now start giving preferential treatment to Blacks.
Which is wrong. The only thing that can be guaranteed is equal opportunity assuming the person puts forth the effort. Disparate impact is an endless loop. Sowell has pointed out how there are numerous factors that can affect t people positively or negatively. I have tried to explain to some relatives that getting rid of affirmative action and firing those who constantly ramble on about historic systems oppression is better for blacks in the long run. Definitely better for whites and Asians because they can actually get a fair shot. I do think reversing the obsession with diversity and inclusion is possible but it’ll take a while
Civil Rights Act II -- referring to the second as merely THE Civil Rights Act plays directly into the left's game of pretending : (1) there's only one, and (2) they are responsible for it
First one was in the 50s and did most of the heavy lifting. Republican President, Republican Congress, a lot of veterans who remember fighting alongside 'colored' units in WWI and WWII behind the push. Also liberal Republicans, back when there were a bunch of those who weren't lying about it.
LBJ's hard-R voting Democrat for a hundred years bill was the one the libshits mark as the start of the modern era, despite the pace of income growth, family stability, and educational attainment catch-up slowing after '65 rather than accelerating.
I see your point, but third world immigrants coming here and creating ethnic enclaves where they never integrate and learn English is one of the biggest issues with "diversity is our strength."
Agreed. Now it seems like the concept of assimilation is bad, but if I legally move to another country it’s my job to assimilate. When in Rome do as Romans do
Well that’s true. I personally have friends of different races. I was just defending the principle of free association. I feel like undoing the effect of radical feminism will takes a long time.

The civil rights act and the constitution are mutually exclusive.

I think most places appreciate partial integration from more successful societies, and want full integration from less successful societies.
Do as the Romans do in Eritrea, and they might appreciate a stable supply of clean running water.
Great point
That's literally the only way to have diversity.
If everyone integrates, all we get is a people of grey sludge.

They definitely would.
I know this because they did it last Wednesday when they counter-protested a rally for parental rights in schools.
And yes, they called it "hateful" probably to lay the groundwork for legal action later.
