I don't think that is a valid argument. Laws are a hazzle to deal with etc.
It is also a sort of "have you stopped beating your wife?", "nothing to hide" etc.
I am buying caste discrimination is a big problem in the US though.
- dghlsakjg 3y agoThe more apt comparison would seem to be a law banning something else described as imaginary. Would anyone object as strongly to a Unicorn ban as they would to a ban on caste based discrimination? We might think that the law is a waste in many ways, but no one could seriously object to the content of a Unicorn ban since it would have no real effect. The same would be true of explicitly making caste a protected class/race.
