qwerty said:Was the Taco Bell chihuahua considered racist? I don?t remember. I was fan of it personally and did not find it offensive. But I am not PC and generally aren?t offended by most things. Except being told to wear a mask
I do believe in a meritocracy and don?t believe things should be equally representative of races in America. X% of America is race A and therefore X% of CEOs should be Race A.
Where was the outcry for the Asian population in the US when they were being called names and getting assaulted because of covid? Where is the outcry to support Asians that aren?t allowed into the best schools because there are already too many Asians? That seems pretty racist.
Where is the movement to increase the number of Hispanic CEOs in business? Hispanics are about 18% of the US population? Yet make up only 4.3% of executives compared to 3.2% for black and 5.9% for Asians, the rest are white.
With that said, I do think black people get the short the end of the stick because of various stereotypes and/or racism. I?m hopeful one day black people get a fair shake, but I?m hopeful everyone gets a fair shake.
I too wish for a society that treats all races the same.
The entire country should be like the NBA: talent and hard work wins the day, no race quotas.
