    I’m seeing more and more that th de facto viewpoint going forward will be that anyone who votes Biden is voting Harris for president. And she’s a thousand times better than the alternative. Autobots, assemble.

    Let's break it down.

    By not recognizing and celebrating the cultural contributions and accomplishments, you are minimizing and denying those contributions and accomplishments which leads to future lack of cultural innovation.

    You end up with a lackluster generic whitebread culture. And of course that means almost every aspect of that culture would come from the race that has been in the majority over the longest period of time.

    But by celebrating and recognizing contributions and accomplishments we get the greatest cultural accomplishments and exports.

    It is also pure positive and hurts nobody (other than those that want no recognition of contribution by minority cultures, and wish to tamp out even the mention their cultures played in those contributions).

    Exampl- Jazz music: Without the culture and finding ways to overcome the racism of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, it either doesn't exist or is only a fraction as relevant. Yet, it is one of the greatest cultural exports from our nation in its history.

    Celebrating that isn't 100% racist. Refusing to, might be.

    Yes it’s completely racist to say you want a vice president based on race

    On top of that she ain’t that black

    Your position is that celebrating accomplishments is racist, and calling out racism is also racist.

    Makes total sense. Good job.
