Could any of it be because we don't challenge those who slander us because we are told that it is racist for us to defend ourselves?
They have the same rights to free speech as you do. The problem is your own misinterpretations of what the 1st amendment protects and the history of this country.
The First Amendment only protects you from the government making laws banning political speech. You don't have the right to your job or to a clean reputation. If you want to say the N word (Which let's be honest, you have already said it multiple times in the past 2 weeks), the government won't throw you in jail. That doesn't mean the company you work for can't fire you or people have to associate with you. That's life.
Also, when you start a thread implying that ending racism is futile, you are advocating indirectly for Jim Crow laws and to a more extreme position, slavery.
Remember Loving v. Virginia? Well here is what Judge Bazile said
"Almighty God created the races white, black, yellow, malay and red, and he placed them on separate continents.... The fact that he separated the races shows that he did not intend for the races to mix."
See that line of thought led to the banning of interracial marriage. That is the same line of thought that you have. It's morally reprehensible and just plain wrong. So when you feel "attack" for your line of thought, it because smarter people than you understand that reasoning is dangerous and leads to horrible oppression.
I'm going to call bullshit on this interpretation. Very few people are objecting to having to walk by a black person on the sidewalk, rather the objections all focus on LAWFARE which specifically focuses on race. Compelled Association, restricted property rights, racial favoritism which undermines free enterprise and merit based systems, etc.
If you want to broach the topic of moral reprehensibility, it's guys like you who pervert fairness, stomp on human rights, and use law to advantage one group over another group who are utterly reprehensible beings.
And give the "smart person" schtick a rest. Most of you liberals couldn't argue your way out of a wet paper bag.
