Microaggressions do exist. I think they are a part of how we naturally arrange ourselves in dominance hierarchies. They are so subtle and natural, it's insane to make such actions a crime, or to create bureaucratic enforcement against them. Those are policies of insanity. That said, I've seen a lot of racially tinged microaggressions as an Asian male.
