2. Minorities have faced discrimination the most.
3. Let's discriminate against Whites/Asians to correct #2, even though we accept the truth of #1.
I don't get this thought process at all..."lets fight discrimination with more discrimination!"
Can you fix the existing imbalance without doing something?
What if the affirmative action were only temporary, and was designed to stop once balance is reached -- is it still discrimination?
The solution can't be to do nothing, doing nothing is why we are where we are, doing nothing is why discrimination exists. We need to fix #1 and #2 on your list before we can fix #3.
I would love to hear of an alternative thought process, please please suggest something better than affirmative action that might fix discrimination.
I though we left that behind a 100 years or more ago?
Non-white people are discriminated against because society as a whole accuses their parents as a whole of being degenerates.
> If your father was a violent degenerate and arsonist, would you comfortable paying society back for a portion of his crimes?
I'm a german. Ask me about the amount of paying back my entire life has consisted of.

You're also veering very off-topic from the fact that op made the claim "more discrimination is being proposed as the solution" to which i replied by disagreeing that it is more, and claim it is the same amount of discrimination, just moved around.
How is this an acceptable solution??
So its more like "discrimination is bad, but only against some groups, if we discriminate against this other group though, its okay"...I still don't how this is "fair" or "just" in any sense
It is however an improvement, unless you think it is fair to discriminate one group massively and one not at all.
> It is not acceptable in the sense of "ok, we can stop now."
That means: It is not supposed to work well in the long run.
The sins of the father should not condemn his children.
