  What do you think solves discrimination?

    Does the OP need to have such answers ready? If someone observes that healing crystals and prayers do not cure cancer, should they be required to provide a perfect cure for cancer before the healing crystal and prayer practice is discontinued? I happen to agree with the OP. Discrimination to solve discrimination is rather similar to "war to end all wars". And as for your question, I don't think that wars, discrimination etc. can be ultimately solved; they aren't mathematical tasks but results of innate human flaws, so fundamentally unsolvable unless you redesign humans, which has always been a failure. But they or their consequences can be mitigated, much like we managed to mitigate many other human flaws. I would rather ask the opposite side for some reasons why they think that an end of discrimination will be achieved by lifting the categories of race or gender to a legally critical concept.
