“If you cannot define a problem clearly, you cannot propose a solution. ‘Systemic racism’ or ‘institutional racism’ or ‘implicit racism’ is a miasmatic, deliberately vague charge. Name the racist policy, name the racist person, so we can all fight the racism together.” -Ben Shapiro on Systemic Racism
I completely, 100% agree with this quote by Ben Shapiro on systemic racism. Frankly, I think it is something that the right, especially young conservatives that are the future of the conservative movement, needs to keep in mind and accept as the truth about systemic racism.
Right now, we’re letting the left set the narrative about racism in America. They claim that America is an inherently and unforgivably racist country. That’s a lie, America is not at all a racist country, but you wouldn’t know that if you only listen to mainstream news sites, including ones on the conservative side such as Fox and the National Review. Because its an uncomfortable, sensitive topic, too few conservatives are willing to stand up to the left and reveal the truth about racism in America.
The left claims that President Donald Trump is a racist. He isn’t; in fact, by unleashing economic opportunity, he’s helping black Americans far more than Lyndon Johnson’s racist and ineffective “Great Society” and “War on Poverty” programs ever did.
Even more ridiculously, the left claims that opposition to the current abortion paradigm is somehow racist. Really? It’s somehow racist to be against the murder of black babies? Over three thousand abortions are carried out each day, of which about forty percent are of black babies. Margaret Sanger established Planned Parenthood as a way to limit the number of black births. How on Earth could it be racist to oppose that? The abortion system is racist, not those that oppose it.

If people have time to feel oppressed by statues or names on stuff they are not oppressed at all.
Many dislike Ben. I think he has an excellent mind and makes excellent points. He is a valuable ally in this post modern crisis.
Who cares.
Great article, and Ben’s always got something insightful to say. Keep up the good work, and don’t let anybody get you down!
I can only think of one. It goes by a fancy name, called Affirmative Action.

True. The ONLY institutionalized racist policy is 'Affirmative Action'.
It’s too late to counter the critical race theory narrative with words. The Red Guard is running wild, destroying lives. There are no political solutions left. It’s either accept slavery or fight.
Happy New Year.
