    you're back to a personal attack again, which isn't debunking my source.

    Where do you perceive a personal attack? In not accepting every conclusion you insist upon?

    I've stated my thoughts on the matter. Why are you taking it so personally that someone might not agree with you in every way?

    Pointing that out is not "whining." Again, you seem to want to take everything personally. It's not necessary.

    I think I made my point quite clearly. You seem unduly upset that anyone might not be in lockstep agreement with your conclusion.

    I can not stress enough that I don't care about your opinion about me.
    My point stands about systemic racism, because you're not disputing it at all / I've countered your idea that there is no data and you're not responding to that.

    It kinda seems like you do. Could it be that you are not as sure about your conclusion as you want to be?

    You sure are showing me wrong with that post full of substance.

    I think this is a fair question:

    Is systemic racism today a bigger barrier to overcoming racism than explicit efforts (including those claiming to be "anti-racist") to define everyone foremost by race and frame everything in terms of race are?

    I don't doubt that though things have improved a lot, some systemic racism still happens and is a problem. I also don't doubt that racism is increased by always insisting on defining people by race and framing everything in terms of race.

    I am not sure at this point which is the bigger hurdle.

    I didn't say anything about what the JUDGES said. I said that none of your SOURCES say that judges are using race in their decision.
