These are a priori questions: theoretical and naive. If you’re sincere about wanting an answer to your question, we in the United Stated have more or less forfeited the argument that we’re capable of discrimination without harm based on our historical treatment of minorities. Now, I know the instinct is to launch into more a priori questioning, but for every “what about…” or “if only…” there’s a historical counterpoint that shows how we (the United States), were not able to fulfill those theoretical promises or ambitions. I have some time today, so if you’d like me to trawl the archives, I can probably do some historical resurfacing for the benefit of this thread some counter examples to the idealized forms of harm-free discrimination, for more than just laughs.
