Could you possibly identify it first?

  The original comment said: "It would be unthinkable for modern western countries to segregate as described in the article." You replied with: "Yeah, we're all about the more subtle behaviors...." There are two possibilities: either you think that these more subtle behaviors are at least as bad as the overt segregation discussed in the article, or they're not as bad. If the former, then that's the false equivalency. If the latter, then your reply was pointless.

    I think it's different, but I think if you have to waste part of your (I believe) only life fighting for basic human rights, it's wrong. It's especially wrong when those issues so often touch on matters of health, with contribute to an early and unnecessary exit from that life. Not surprisingly, this has more nuance than the silly black and white options presented by people who have issues.
