Politics in general has been reduced to this sort of semantic silliness. Any preference is discriminatory, because any gravitation TOWARD one thing is a move AWAY from the other.
Our waitress asks if we want fries or onion rings. If I say “fries” she doesn’t demand “What do you have against onion rings?!” But drop two opposing lobbyists in the diner and that’s the inevitable discourse that will ensue when politicians get involved.
The argument that, for example, the City of Milwaukee isn’t discriminating AGAINST Caucasians in its hiring practices is hardly defensible by declaring a preference TOWARD minorities. But that is, at the end of the day, their feeble defense. And it’s preposterous.
Preference IS discriminatory…
