As the esteemed African-American scholar Thomas Sowell pointed out, ""structural racism" is not something that can be quantified or measured, and therefore talking about it and "working against it" is every bit the equivalent of tilting at windmills. Some people don't like that reality, but it is reality, nonetheless, and eventually all will be forced to accept it.
Some may not have noticed (being colorblind as they are), but 75% of the prosecutors levying charges against Trump are black. White supremacy? Only in a fool's mind.
I've seen no evidence of anyone forcing their religious beliefs on others, but I have seen some people who very justifiably believe that "less fully developed" humans are humans, and should not be killed. Are they right? We can argue. Can their argument be dismissed out of hand? Of course not.
Are we harming the environment? Probably yes, ever since the megafauna were eliminated and fire was discovered. Are we harming it too much? It's a very valid question, worthy of discussion. Why is no one on the left willing to discuss it? Probably because it has become their religion, and in their worldview, this belief gives their lives value. Very simple cause to rally behind, absolutely no thought required, kill the dissenters.
But in America, the dissenters are not quite so easy to kill.
This will become evident in good time, unfortunately.
