I’m white, but I’ve always had friends of all races. So I didn’t experience racism against myself, but hanging out with black friends, or Mexican or Native American friends is all it took to really understand that racism definitely exists! I’ll never forget the horrible feeling I had when I realized my friend was being treated badly simply bc of her skin color. We were in grade school and it was my first encounter with the ugliness of racism. It really hurt my heart to know she had to deal with that, not all the time of course, but a lot. And through the years, I’ve seen it with lots of friends. Maybe if I only had white friends, I wouldn’t have had that experience, and I’d be prone to thinking racism doesn’t exist. I would hope I’d be smarter than that, but who knows? The thing that is so difficult about the subject is that you can pass laws against racist behaviors, but you can’t legislate how people think. When people continue to be racist, they bring that with them everywhere: their interactions with others, their work, their recreation, shopping, etc. and it affects all those things. There are so many levels to it also. People can lie about their beliefs, yet act in horrible ways. People aren’t always honest with themselves about their beliefs. Institutional racism is also a complex issue. It can exist even though there are laws against it, and sometimes the laws themselves are the problem. I don’t know why some white people insist so loudly that there is no problem. Maybe it’s ignorance, maybe something more sinister. But why do they feel qualified to say it? They haven’t lived life as a person of color, so how do they know what they’ve experienced? I wish people would be more open minded and willing to learn and change their mind. It’s the only way we can get past this. Sometimes I wonder how it is that humans have walked on the moon, yet we still haven’t figured out how to get along with each other! Sometimes I think it behooves the rich and powerful to have the rest of us arguing amongst ourselves, bc then we will never become a threat to them. Other times, I think it’s just rampant ignorance that can eventually be overcome with education and time. Although, after the trump presidency, I think the latter is less likely, unfortunately. There’s no easy answer, and that sucks. But decent people have to be willing to call it out when it occurs, we can’t just ignore it bc it’s not happening to us. Anyway, sorry for the long rant, but I think it’s a hugely important subject, and something we should talk about. Thanks Vaush, for being a voice of reason. You have a big platform and I’m glad you’re talking about these things. TLDR; Racism sucks!

@Joe Maleski Other than him doing it already? Systemic racism is when a system is racist, even if every individual isn't. It's when policies have racist outcomes.

[@Lectical]

@Joe Maleski the easiest example is explicitly racist housing policies from the 30's to the 70s that denied black people loans and corralling us into ghettos that weren't invested in. This led directly to the de-facto segregation we still see the remnants of in cities and suburbs. This also means black homeownership was lowered by racism, and those homes that would have been passed down as intergenerational wealth never could. This is an example of explicitly racist policy that contributes to the disproportionate black poverty rate and wealth gap that exists now. Vaush has many videos about this if you're interested. Look for his response to Ben Shapiro talking about systemic/institutional racism. It's easy stuff once you're educated about it. Cheers.

I like both James Lindsay and Helen Pluckrose. Their grievance studies were pretty hilarious. I actually think he has some pretty good segments on New Discourses. I really liked his most recent one on authenticity. Personally, I've heard and read a lot of both pro and anti CRT arguments, and there are a lot more bad interpretations of it than good ones. I do think Vaush makes some good points, but this Prager video is a pretty accurate interpretation of CRT as far as a anti CRT perspective goes. Bad CRT interpretations are being implemented in schools and work places. These segregated training sessions fall flat on their face when they literally segregate individuals based on a color swatch while discussing "whiteness", and dismiss any dissenting opinions as evidence of "white fragility". If CRT training sessions were set up as an open debate, that allowed people to disagree, I think that could create some genuine understanding as well as be beneficial for both skeptics and believers alike. I say this because CRT is mainstream and this idea that it can simply be removed and boycotted as a solution for those against it, is as ridiculous as saying those who disagree with CRT should just switch schools and or jobs, or comply. I would be interested in hearing a discussion and or debate between Vaush and Lindsay. Also, just a side thought. I can't speak for all conservatives, liberals, or whatever political ideology that is fearful of CRT. For myself, I do find aspects of it raise red flags. The validation of white privilege bothers me the most. I find it counter productive as well as dangerous to implement aspects of white supremacist theories. It's entirely likely that many children as well as adults might believe the concept of skin color denoting a kind of inherent caste hierarchy, which undermines the idea of equality completely. Historically, segregationist thinking based on race is what got us here. I don't see how this new form of segregation based on race will lead anywhere positive. As far as why CRT is mainstream, I would guess it has less to do with some kind of intricate conspiracy, (although I have seen some pretty interesting videos on this idea), and more to do with the majority of Americans actually really do care about race relations in our country, and want to help. Which is a sentiment I can understand.

I mean, if you dilute it down to just “Nazis were race conscious and CRT scholars are race conscious too!” But that seems disingenuous since nazism was all about superiority of the white race, or Aryan race, and conquering other races, while specifically being anti-Semitic for blaming them for corruption of the German ideals and Germany’s defeat in WWI. While CRT recognizes white supremacy in the institutions or history of US legal systems, and believes a color-blind, incrementalist approach to redress the inequities or disparities of systemic racism that’s oppressed people of colors, particularly blacks, is inadequate. Thus, a color conscious approach with equity in results is the proper solution to redress the problems created by white supremacy or racism. Also, your assessment is ignoring the centuries of white race consciousness that existed in the US leading up to the formation of CRT scholarship.

Liberalism is rooted from Judeo-Christian values that man is made in the image of God and that there are natural rights that everyone has that comes from God and that man is born free.

[@Nemo12417]

Christianity was the dominant religion in Europe for over a millennium before the concept of natural rights came about. If natural rights are an extension of the Abrahamic faiths, why did it take so long? In the Old Testament, believers are commanded to worship Yahweh Sabaoth exclusively, and to be viciously intolerant of those who do not. Where do "natural rights" fit in with that? And finally, enough with the "Judeo Christian" buzzword. For the majority of Christian history, Christians wanted nothing to do with Jews and persecuted the "Christ Killers" within their borders. "Judeo Christian" is a modern political slogan, not one grounded in any religious realities.

[@Nemo12417]

In what way can the concept of human rights be directly linked to the Torah? I can easily provide examples from the Torah which refute the idea of human rights coming from that particular deity. My argument is that the concept of human rights developed slowly in spite of religious traditions, not because of them. And at every step, piety was antagonistic (unless you count the social justice-y religious types who were rejected in their day and were outside the Overton Window).
