The issue with your argument is that you’re saying it was inherently wrong to hire/cast people due to being white, but you’re also implying that it’s perfectly fine to hire/cast people because they’re black. Either racism is wrong or it’s not. You can’t say that racism is wrong, unless it benefits a particular subgroup. That’s the very definition of racism.
I believe everyone should have equal consideration and that the decision as to who to hire needs to be based on merit and nothing more. Over compensating for wrongs of the past only creates more wrongs, it doesn’t correct anything
Live by the SJW die by the SJWSchaub is about as much SJW as you can get. The guy says dumb shit but this is just ridiculous. People will just keep trying to push that line, it's depressing.
remnants of racism of the past should be changed to better fit todays society. it is not racist to do so. if television was predominantly white because that's all a more racist time wanted to see, you fuckin rights that should be phased out to better suit today's world.
you can absolutely say racism is wrong and that races that have been misrepresented because of "leftover" racism ingrained in todays systems deserve to receive the same privileges that white people receive. that's equal consideration, not continuing the tradition of "white people get all the things and black people have to work even harder to be considered and receive exponentially more criticisms in the process"
i'm also not saying "hire someone because they're black." i'm saying don't criticize their commentating skills because they're black and complain about them receiving the opportunity despite maybe being "unqualified" when there are many, many white people who are and were given many if not more opportunities despite also not being qualified[ that don't receive the same race-based criticisms.
that's fine to say out loud, but where are the threads critizing all the white panelists all over TV that are boring, monotone, etc? the most we get is a few making fun of rogan or dom for their actual commentating flaws, but never is their skin color put into question (i.e, are they only there because people still prefer to see white people more on tv? you know how quickly the people who say that woodley/yves/bryant are only on tv because they're black would shut that down?) so clearly there isn't equal consideration there.
Where i disagree with you is that you seem to think the best way to combat racism is more racism, but racism in a different way, that you approve of.
That was a forum member of a boxing site.
Pretty sure he won the Novice division in Denver Golden Gloves. That's not the highest level of competition.Schaub was a former boxer himself. He did that before MMA.
