Forcing Equality Down Our Throats

ACCORDING TO LIBERALS, black people, gay people, and transgender people, among others, have been mistrereated, historically. Mistreated since time immemorial, and sill, in the present. Enslaved, shunned, segregated, ridiculed; you name it, whatever form of mistreatment you choose, those groups have been subjected to it. Now, if not sooner, is the time to do something about it, goes the liberal thinking, since the United States is supposedly a country which aspires to and mandates equality, equal treatment. According to liberals, you have to actually do something, something tangible and measurable, instead of just declaring that from now on, all citizens will indeed, truly, and seriously be treated equally. Simply sayiing its so does not, will not, never has and never will, make it so. Society has to actually manifest the equal treatment, require its manifestation, implement it through concerted, defined action. Hence, affirmative action. Hence, gay rights. Hence, womaen's rights. And on and on. The conservative point of view seems to be that when you, when a society actually imements forced, required equality, such as affirmative action, you are simply using a new form of rcism, discrimination, to replace another, and that the new type, against white people straight people, is no better, really, or diffferent than the old pro white discrimanation anti-gay anti-black kind. Superficially, that conservative argument may sound and seem good and reasonable, and logical, and honest, but, alas, it is none of the above. Conservatives argue that Affirmative Action and gay rights gives those groups special protected status, and exclused all other groups, including white and heterosexual. This is a fatuous assertion, which would be true if all the groups were starting from a place of equality, which they most certainly are not. The so called "Special treatment" of social engineering is nothing other than action designed to equalize social status and treatment among all demographic groups, and does not have anythig to do with creating any privileged groups. eliminating all race based quotas will only force us back to a make believe color blind society, and, far from color blind, we the people will simply rebuild the same old barriers to racial equality our ancestors knew so well.
