So you're saying there's no bias in the data sets , or in society? Do you think that someone who thinks there's no bias in their dataset would then dig in to see what's going on? Do you think people are going to recognize the negative biases in the data if they don't face those issues themselves?
Bigotry is part of society, because it's existed for so long and still does. It doesn't mean that everyone is actively racist. It just means you can't just say there's no bigotry affecting things, and in saying there isn't, you're now blinding yourself to the possibility of negative biases.
