I forced myself to listen to a little bit of a Rubin Report the other day. He was interviewing Coleman Hughes who is a philosopher academic and Quillette writer, happens to be black, and grew up in a liberal environment, but now questions many of those assumptions. He gets a bit uncomfortable, because he does a thought experiment on just how much racism can we tolerate? I think this is something that’s hard to admit, that you can’t get rid of all racism, sexism, certainly promiscuity. It’s kind of a positive sign of the times that this question can be asked, although it seems negative that you’re saying you are allowing for some racism and sexism. But, the point is, think about it. To completely eliminate those things, you’d have to have monitors everywhere, every bar, every basement where guys are watching football, every bedroom, and ultimately in your head, sending you in for re-education if you look at someone wrong for more than 2 seconds.
