Not parent, but I agree with them. > Some observable differences are due to social factors. > Some observable differences by certain groups are the result of past actions by other groups. Agreed with this as well. > You should favor policies to correct for the result of past harms. Mostly disagree. I'm wholly convinced there's never going to be even remote consensus about ancestral oppression and victimhood. I think that if you want to correct harms, you should focus on the current social issues. Not only do I think that has much less shitty side effects (such as exacerbating group identity), but I also think it will be more effective at reaching those that have been mistreated in the past - both directly and their ancestors. The US in particular has, let's say, a decent amount of low-hanging fruit in terms of social issues to address (homelessness, lack of preventative health care, incarceration for victimless crimes etc etc). > there's no need to try to mitigate things, everything is peachy This is not the only option. You can recognize that things are fucked but have a vastly different opinion on how to improve.
