"There's no such thing as structural racism!" [lists a dozen instances of politicians cynically committing heinous racist acts and reaping the expected reward in elections]
Joe, How many straw men can dance on the head of a pin? Your definition of equity is wildly inaccurate. So is your rather sneering characterization of structural racism. That you define the national political "culture" debate without even *mentioning* women's reproductive rights, gun violence or rising right-wing authoritarianism & violence suggests you either slept through this last election, or woefully susceptible to the Murdoch Media's dictates as to what voters "should" believe is important. Please exercise some journalistic rigor!
Thanks for your comment. I appreciate feedback, even if it's snarky. Abortion and gun control are certainly cultural issues, but not the one I was addressing here. Stick around, I'll have something to say about both--especially gun control (hint: not just assault weapons should be banned). As for rising right-wing authoritarianism, a clear message was sent in the 2020 and 2022 elections. A similar message will be sent in 2024 if Trump wins the nomination...that is, unless Democratic delusion, which sees the very real issues I discuss here as "straw men" dominates the party.
