I don't think allegedly discriminated against groups actually want equality. You know what equality really means?
-
No one is concerned in the least about legal ramifications of firing you.
-
No one ever has a quota to hire you. No recruiters are traveling around the country to snag you right out of college because of your skin color.
-
No court/jury will ever find in your favor if you allege discrimination, even if it's blatant.
-
There are no special mentoring programs or scholarships or anything else based on your skin color.
-
You have no excuses. If you don't make it, it's your own fault.
-
No one ever cares if the police ki-l you without justification. Seriously, go ahead and name one white guy that police officers negligently ki-led. It happens more to white men than any other group, and yet we don't know a single name, because people have been trained that they don't matter.
-
Media, schools, and other institutions constantly tell you that you are the root of all evil and people with other skin colors are the virtuous victim of your treachery even if you did nothing wrong.
-
You are expected to "shup up and listen", and like it, as if your freedom of speech is less equal than others.
-
No one will ever lower standards or eliminate testing for you.
-
Generally, to advance you must compete and accomplish it on merit. There's exceptions, but by and large that's true. No one is going to create a fake LOB with non-work to do so you can be the executive running it to improve the CEOs diversity numbers.
The list goes on, but you get the point. I wish there really was equality, then we could get rid of all the racist BS, but a lot of people are heavily invested in keeping it going. They get rich off it, and they aren't willing to just give that up, so here we are, with institutionalized racism the standard and the alleged leaders or the alleged victims do not want it any different.
