I'm not a fan of explicit institutional racism, even if it's done with good intentions.

We tried the "certain people recognized by the government have exceptional powers granted along hereditary lines" thing, and everyone for a while agreed it wasn't the best.

You are not clever, Nazi fuck.

You're calling for special privileges based on race and I'm the Nazi for being against it?

Ok.
