Nah, it’s a pretty relevant distinction within American life.

The only people who think race don’t matter is people who exclusively interact within the same race.

It’s a social construct that didn’t exist until the 1600s, but it’s a real social construct.
Outside America and other former plantation economies it can be a bit different, and less in-your-face, but it’s almost always still there.

It’s not purely a social construct, I hate this stupid idea. It’s a phenotype. Babies do not have a randomized skin color at birth, it depends on their ancestry. Calling that a “social construct” is arguably racist in itself.

The left has GOT to stop using race/skin color.
You first.
StaySquared@lemmy.world 4 months ago
I don’t need to… I don’t care about people’s skin color or race or religion or ethnicity or their nationalities. That doesn’t define an individual.

Sure, right. Because I’m sure you are free and clear of centuries of systemic white supremacy… Uh huh.

As a Democrat, I agree.
But I kinda want to see how deep this goes.

I’m in one of these oddly specific groups, and I feel both validated and paranoid.
