Here is something for the people who don't think critical race theory is something worth at least some consideration. Something for them to ignore, obviously.

It's John Olliver, in case you want to ignore it before you even click it. I am considerate with the personal time of ignorant people wishing to stay ignorant

What happened is truly disgusting. However, I'm not sure reparations are the way forward though.
Oliver conviently missed out lationos, Asians, Moslims, etc.
All who probably received equal treatment because of those laws that were introduced.
And if you turn up at some fancy gated community dressed like a hillbilly, I'm pretty sure you're gonna be treated more like a black than a white.
Still, I'm not sure I can see any other solutions to the problem either which won't take generations to work themselves out.

Companies take data of past experiences.
So a loan company that doesn't get paid back by certain groups will cause almost everyone in the group to suffer and be denied a loan or have to meet extra criteria etc.
Rental properties also go by past experiences too.
The funny thing about stereotypes is they are usually right. 😉

@quackquack saidYeah, seriously, when did all that start. Hair-bun libs and trans people are just wild about the comedians. And DO get their news there.

@dood111 saidThis will go right over their heads Dood. Prob cause several have actually trashed such places. Makes it hard for real estate investors to make some real money.....But the big picture , we do make money. Just gotta take the bad with the good.
Maybe the housing discrimination is because...uhh...certain people have a habit of renting homes and apartments and trashing them before they get evicted for not paying the rent as soon as they settle in? Seems like I've heard of that happening before.

"The federal Fair Housing Acts apply to all aspects of the landlord-tenant relationship. A landlord may not:
set more restrictive standards for selecting tenants or refuse to rent to members of certain groups.

@no1marauder saidIt's not discrimination, it's common sense based on past experience with them.

What you think is A-OK has been illegal for more than half a century.

@no1marauder saidStill doesn't change the fact that "Them" have a history of renting places and tearing them up after not paying rent for 6 months before finally getting tossed out and leaving the place trashed. .
