Where is this “systemic bias” people keep crying about? I don’t see it in ads, in hiring policies, in college admission policies, etc.
In fact, I see the opposite: the group you mentioned is vilified and artificially held back across the board because it is fashionable. Fighting racism with a different kind of racism makes absolutely no sense.
The more we deviate from a meritocracy the more we all lose.
