    I’m not saying the Civil Rights Act is crafted to give whites an advantage. You’re assuming I meant that specific institutional policy in reference to this. I was speaking more of a general, big picture. I could also be assuming wrongly on what you’re assuming.

    My specific train of thought from what I read that it was mostly white workers that were getting discriminated against in the workplace. I wanted to make the distinction that it isn’t “racism” against white people. For other cases, yes, it is racism. I don’t disagree. However, these capitalists are operating within the framework of a settler society. They’re using law and court that was designed AND created for AND by white individuals historically to also inflict grievances on minorities or protect their place in society while justifying their exploitation. The people aggrieved are using the Civil Rights Act to defend themselves, actually. With the chunk of white workers that are aggrieved and the original comment; I thought they were saying it is racism to discriminate against white workers/individuals or implying it was racism to discriminate against the whole group in which I thought was mostly white workers. If I’m wrong on that, I apologize and I’ll remove everything.

    I also apologize for responding later, I was at work.
