Finally, someone has cracked the code. You’re welcome everybody. Here’s a step-by-step on how to eradicate racism (without any unexpected consequences whatsoever):
Step 1: Change the Labels
Let “brown” become “charming as ever.”
Let “Hispanic” become “pretty as a peach.”
Let “Asian” become “super lovable.”
Let “white” become “cute as a button.”
Let “native” become “darn adorable.”
Let “aboriginal” become “most darling.”
Let “Arab” become “silky smooth.”
Let “Inuit” become “fetchingly handsome.”
Let “black” become “oh so sweet.”
Let “mixed race” become “plain delightful.”
Let “racially ambiguous” become “finger-lickin’ good.”
If someone described themselves as “part charming, part darling, just plain delightful and finger-lickin’ good,” how could you hold any negative bias against that?
Step 2: Make Race Invisible
Simply give everyone really cool sunglasses to wear at all times, thus making it more difficult to groundlessly infer the quality of someone’s character based on their skin colour.
Step 3: Replace Race
Describe people not by the colour of their skin or ethnicity, but based on their supposed ability to digest gluten. This one is perhaps the most difficult, but definitely the most important. Nothing is more annoying than someone going off about gluten. If you don’t eat gluten, keep it to yourself.
