But I do notice that everyone's dropped the "racism" explanation. Funny, that. I wonder what they realized... :wink: They realised that you will explain away each event individually, while the whole point of systemic racism is that's evident more from the patterns within the data rather than the in...

Duh. Humans have freedom in some situations and don’t in others. Take the trolley problem as an example of both situations. You, as the switch operator, have the freedom to make a choice regarding which course the trolley takes. The ones on the tracks face a situation beyond their control. They must...
