All anti-discrimination laws do is make things worse by driving the bigotry underground
Bullshit.
Anti-discrimination laws force people realize there are consequences to their shitty little small minded opinions which wont be tolerated by a civilized society.
To take a small example let us have a public transport system for each race and sexual orientation. The transvestite bus, the transsexual bus, the black bus, the jew bus, the muslim bus. the hispanic bus. And the entire world grinds to a halt because no fucker can get to their black work or their jew work or their gay work because no fucker can get on the right bus.
So in Seths utopia of "No blacks allowed here", "Nein Juden!" we can all live in a culturally divisive society where basically the final result is that we all end up acting the way gangs do in prison.
We've done that. It's shit. No thanks. While maybe an admirable vision of humans living in harmony to boycott bigots, all legalized bigotry does is breed more bigots, it's fact, its proven. Sadly humans can't be trusted. Once again Seths delusions are proven to be a moronic idea by the history books, logic and reality in general.
In the begining there was nothing. Which then exploded.
