Once upon a time a couple of decades ago, people were encouraged to judge other people not by what they looked like, but on their merits. I miss those times. *sigh*

Once upon a time a couple of decades ago, people were encouraged to judge other WHITE people not by what they looked like, but on their merits. I miss those times. *sigh*

Fixed it for you. POC have always been judged on what they look like, but you're right, the real tragedy kicks in when whitey is under attack for the colour of their skin.

Uh, no. Remember this quote. I was raised to aspire to it. And so were a lot of other people.

I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character.

I don't think that immediately acting as though race doesn't exist at all and as though no one has ever had any racial prejudices is the best way to achieve that goal.

I certainly don't think pretending it's the only way and anyone who does otherwise isn't really interested in achieving that goal is helping anyone.

There's a reason it was a dream. It wasn't realised a couple of decades ago either.

da

I don't think that's what that anon meant, though? Obviously we shouldn't just ignore racism and pretend it doesn't exist anymore. But as individuals we should aspire to judge every person we meet by their behaviour, not by their race or their sex or their sexual orientation or whatever. Obviously systematic racism is a huge problem that needs to be tackled, but we should still teach individuals that when they meet someone, it doesn't matter if that someone is black or white - be nice to them if they're nice people, and fuck them if they're rude assholes. And I feel like SJWs have moved from that to "I hate all straight/white/cis/whatever people, they're all disgusting".

this

also compare the attitudes toward PWD in 1981 (UN International Year of the Disabled) and SJW attitudes towards PWD today (fetishizing is just the start of it) and it's like these loudmouthed American teenage girls have singlehandedly set back the rights of PWD thirty years

A couple of decades ago, people were being actively encouraged to judge people of colour
not by what they looked like, but on their merits. Were they successful at actually living up to that standard? Not so much. But was it encouraged? Yes.

[darkmanifest]

People are still encouraged to do that today. The problem is, same as a few decades ago, and throughout all of human history, it hasn't really worked out how we hoped it would.

[(Anonymous)]

So are sexuality and gender counted among 'merits'? A couple decades ago was still pretty bad. It's good that you never ran into that though.
