Millennials: Racial Discrimination more important than economy, healthcare

[Suburbia]

Civil rights/racial discrimination will be a significant issue, but not big to determine the election.

It's not the 1960s anymore, and some far-left millennials need to understand that.

Social engineering doesn't work anymore.

There needs to be a balance.

What does this dog whistle even mean?

Root out discrimination anywhere, especially with home mortgages, but stop the corporate shakedowns. You don't have to hire people because of skin color, it should be because of work ethic, with any race.

It's not a dog whistle. Social engineering doesn't really work.

We are all equal.

This is what all of us being equal looks like...

We are all equal in the way how we can have opportunities, but it is the way how people conduct themselves is how they become successful.

Mass incarceration is a big problem, those wrongly put in jail should be freed, but murderers and rapists should be punished forever.

Education is a big issue as well. If inner city students don't feel the need to learn (some of them), same goes with rural white children, who will hold their hands to do it?

Don't be obtuse. Social engineering is what the US was founded on, and has practiced for decades. The idea that minorities are inferior is social engineering - ensuring that corporations and universities account for that is not. Pretending it's the other way around is willful ignorance.

No, we are absolutely not equal in the opportunities afforded to white and black people. Those graphs disproved your point before you made it.

For instance, white people and black people use illegal drugs at about the same rate (9.5% of whites, 10.5% of black people, which means that there are waaaaaay more white people using drugs than black people), yet black people are 12 times more likely to be arrested for drug use. You cannot tell me that is equality.

People in "inner cities" don't do worse in school because they're lazy, they do worse in school because their schools aren't properly funded...

I'm a millennial and it's not even in my top three for concerns.

Ok, would you like a cookie?

I don't believe in reverse racism but apparently reverse virtue signaling is a thing now...

good. why the heck is there still racial inequality? it affects economic and health care outcomes too. racial disparities are everywhere!

Yes, why, in 2018, are black women three times more likely to die in childbirth than white women? It's disgusting. Racial discrimination is, in some cases, literally a matter of life and death. But no, I'm only supposed to care about the economy and healthcare as it pertains to me, because apparently many don't value caring about other people any more...

When they don't get their dream job, it's because of their race or gender, and not because of their lack of experience, work ethic, minimal credentials, or the neck tattoo that their older prospective boss isn't exactly into.

Literally the only people I have ever heard articulate that thought are white Trump supporters, anywhere from ages 16-60. They'll whine when they didn't get a promotion or acceptance into a college or work program they felt they deserved, because some minority they felt was beneath them got it instead due to affirmative action. Never mind the fact that said minority was, in each and every case, just as qualified (if not more so) than the aforementioned Trump supporters...

Yes, some of them in inner cities are lazy. You don't invest in people who don't want it. Those who want it should get an education. Government can't hold your hand and guide you through the way. The excuses game is not working anymore. Middle America had it. There needs to be a better alternative.

I’m glad; maybe we’ll actually make more than superficial progress on this issue once Millenials are the main voting block.  Glad Millenials are at least recognising the discrimination that exist within America’s  institutions.

It's threads like this that remind me that atlas is 90% white

We all know that discrimination exists in some of America's institutions. The question remains, once the discrimination ends, will there be more complaining and extreme extortion tactics from SJWs?
