I think we should. The more we stop caring about races, gender, and sexual preference, the better off we are. People cry out constantly about racial crimes because they don't get what they want. Well, normal people don't. People who understand that maybe they didn't get something because they didn't work hard enough rather than blaming hate on their skin color are usually a little wiser, too. In the USA, it's practically impossible for a straight white male to get good grant money, because they're not considered a minority. Homosexual straight men, or straight white females, however, can get grant money just for that. There's also a grant fund for most races. In my personal opinion, it seems like this is a sort of reverse-segregation, where people are getting benefits because somehow, it's unfair if they don't. People can be sued for rejecting an application for someone of a certain skin color, even if another applicant has better experience. Racial quotas have to be filled, otherwise it's unfair. It seems all a bunch of bullshit to me. If we get rid of the concept of races and stop tracking racial statistics altogether, as well as stop segregating by gender and sexual preference, I think the playing-field would be leveled.

I totally support your view on this. Another example is how colleges want to reach a diversity in their campus, or not be marked as racially/sexually prejudiced. They have racial as well as sexual quotas. For example, 2% of students have to be Native American, 10% have to be Asian, etc... This of course defeats the purpose of a college education and the use of college entrance exams. Colleges should I think always base their admissions on the ability of their applicants, not on racial and sexual quotas. Side: yes

I think I like the fact that when I make a racial white joke I'm called an individualist or a free thinker or a spectacular comedian and if a white person makes a racial joke he/she is called racist. I like the fact that I can openly oppose christianity, white people's history, culture, beliefs whereas they cannot. I like it. We shouldn't get rid of that. Side: No
