Systemic racism exists
Charlie kirk
Look, you're buying into a narrative that actually hurts the very people you claim to care about. Here's what's really happening - we've had more opportunities, more programs, more legislation aimed at helping minority communities than any society in human history, yet we keep hearing the same excuses.If systemic racism is so powerful, explain this to me - Asian Americans have the highest median household income at $117,894, far exceeding every other racial group in America [1]. That's not an accident or luck - that's the result of cultural values that prioritize education, hard work, and personal responsibility.
You're telling me the same "systemically racist" country that supposedly holds minorities down has somehow allowed one minority group to dramatically out-earn everyone else? Asian Americans moved into the upper-income tier at 32% compared to just 19% of Americans overall [2]. That destroys your entire narrative right there.
The real problem isn't systems - it's that we've created a victim mentality that tells people their failures are someone else's fault instead of empowering them to succeed. When you constantly tell communities they can't make it because of racism, you're actually holding them back from the very achievements that would prove you wrong.
