And yet, people keep coming here. Some are sitting in cages so desperate to be a part of the American citizenry, they risked their freedoms.

What do they see that the American citizen fails to see? If they saw hate, why not stay in their own country, where they are already victims of hate?

Here is one of the better source establishing the facts.

You linked to a 2013 article on cultural diversity not ethnic diversity, as noted by the author.

There is a powerful process of dismantling white supremacy in this country. Almost every comment is in some way related to race somehow if you read between the lines. Couple that with US is best and competition for resources and you have the United States moving through time.

What happened is that greed may have been the primary motivator of this countries original sin, it is now being used to both dismantle that legacy and continue it at the same time. Either way, it’s an exercise in experimentation. We brought the warring European clans together to build the country initially and it will obviously continue onward with building up the nation with all the peoples of the world. Or so they hope. As long as elites can make lots of money during the process, so be it.

Social media is just a symptom, not a cause of this countries division. White Americans have always been the default American and now that is being overturned. Current times are just a reflection of that birthing process. There are obviously other reasons, but race is at the core of how Americans perceive themselves and their value as human beings in general.

People are challenging the dissolution of absolute racial advantage, next will come real monetary advantage and subsequently widespread social advantage. We’re just at the starting gates of real change and people better get ready for a drawn out wild ride. Globalization will take a bit of the sting out of it, I do confess. But if that means dissolving our national integrity, I can’t be for it. These clowns have already sacrificed to many to get their way.$$$

A whole lot of racists crawled out of their hiding places when Trump announced for president. I, like most Americans, are surprised at how many of them there still are in the 21st century. But really, the hate is in the fringes. Most people don't hate others who disagree with them politically. There is a great frustration in the land because of out of control and growing wealth imbalance. History shows us that unless this gets addressed politically there will be a revolution.

Well, to start with, the police must be (no, not defunded) better taught about the use of lethal force. And they should have operating body cams on whenever they interact with the public.
