No, being against a little benefit that is trying even the playing field after literally hundreds of years of systemic oppression against a group of people is what is disgusting.

This futile quest for cosmic justice is making people believe that discrimination is, somehow, equality.

Many blacks have slaves as their ancestors. Some immigrated more recently. Jews have had it uphill for most of the past two millennia. Poor whites in rural South would be right to chase you away with their guns if you tried to tell them about their alleged privileges.

Why stop at race? Short men are disadvantaged in the dating market. Beautiful people have an enormous advantage in life.

The past is full of discrimination, persecution, and prejudice. But we cannot right the old wrongs by creating new ones. Let’s treat everyone equally instead.
