I have no problem acknowledging that our country suffers from racism,sexism,anti-semitism and anti a whole bunch of things.Identity political and tribalism are a fact of life In America if not much of the world.
Many if not most would agree life is not fair and tough to succeed. That being said,many have been able to do just that by pushing against the tide. Sure we can say it should not be like that. Doubt there is any place on earth anyone can point to where meritocracy rules.
So my question is whatever ism someone faces a good enough reason to say well the system is fixed so why try and get ahead. So is whatever ism you fall into a proper excuse at failing to succeed here.
Thoughts.
