Well, the claim on the table is that the reason you can't post actual examples is that there aren't any. So you do not care that this claim seems to be irrefutable?schmelzer said:Sorry, but I don't care about this. The example is, of course, general, but this gives you even more power to chose an example from this general category which presents my position in an unfavourable way.
On the contrary, I have been posting quotes and responding to replies from you that seem to be based in complete ignorance of the economic, political, and historical facts of bigotry and oppression.schmelzer said:The problem is that you don't seem to know how racial oppression actually works in real life, how bigots get together and do harm.
This is your private theory, not based on any evidence.
Like this:
Aside from you not knowing what a "boycott" is (a rich banker redlining his town is not boycotting anyone), the assertion has been proven false by a century of American history (all it takes is a few bigoted rich bankers and one KKK member for every five block area to confine all the black children in dangerous ghettoes)schmelzer said:Whenever boycotts by bigots will be supported by so many people that they become dangerous for some minority, they will be supported by every democratic state
Any American can give you dozens of examples of really, truly, harmful suppression of minorities by bigots that were ended - or at least greatly reduced in harmfulness and scope - by having a democratic government forbid them. You have seen examples - the motel room problem, the business services problem.schmelzer said:In other words, the really harmful suppressions of minorities by bigots you cannot fight with the power of the state, at least not a democratic one
Yep. And that would automatically include those government contractors with employees of their own, of course. Government suppliers?schmelzer said:I would require that the government makes it obligatory in their job contracts that their workers are obliged not to discriminate.
How about: anyone who wants their contracts enforced by the government.
