But isn't having a color blind society incompatible with affirmative action?
Affirmative action doesn't work because it *is* a form of racism. Example: They'll choose an employee because he's black rather than his work experience or education to fufill their "diversity quota". While this is seen as a way to combat racism, it's really doing the opposite effect. It's enforcing it. Positive racism is still racism.
I believe race should not be a factor in jobs, education etc. It's not racist to not pick a black guy simply because the white guy is more qualified for the job, despite what some think. If the black guy is more qualified, then he'll get the job. Sadly people will have you believe otherwise because so and so minority will claim it's the government etc. putting them down, when in reality it's themselves. Those black kids who get into gangs, drugs etc. are only doing it because they *chose* to, using anything but themselves (some using the race card) to blame. They can easily better themselves and improve the conditions of their community if they bothered to continue their education, stopped being annoying cunts and actually get a job without appearing like some idiot. It *is* possible and many blacks have done so, the rest should get off their arses and do the same; if they want equality then they should contribute to society in equal terms.
As for the guilt nonsense, I don't care that white people pissed them about and turned them to slaves. I wasn't fucking born then, *they* weren't born then... so why should anyone care? Sure the past was cruel, but we need to move on and think of the present and future. None of this "black history month" bollocks in the US, "sorry day" in Aussieland and so on.
