Re: The just and the unjust ways to address modern racial inequality: affirmative act
You said "We fix discrimination based on race by discriminating based on race? That makes no sense... Oh wait... Progressives came up with that idea."
implying that any idea Progressives come up with makes no sense, or that a progressive is incapable of coming up of good ideas, or something of the sort, implying that you close to equate progressives and their ideas with nonsense.
A less prejudicial approach, I think, would be to approach each issue individually, and say something such as "This idea is nonsense" or something of the sort, rather than thinking that all progressives and their ideas are nonsensical. After all, surely there is ONE progressive with ONE good progressive idea in the world.
What do I know of progressives? A lot, I suspect, but much depends on how you use the term "progressive," because there are many different parties, people, and organizations advocating for government reform and changes and such. How do you define "progressive"?
