General on Yik Yak | The other night, my aunt was saying that when Charlie Kirk said the civil rights act was a mistake, that wasn’t racist. I don’t get it. How is that not racist? Why would the CV act be a mistake? It’s like saying the 19th amendment is wrong

Listen to the context of that. I don’t remember entirely but his point was actually AGAINST racism. He said it caused more division or something. You should check it out.

Okay so I don’t agree with Kirk’s take, but as a libertarian I have more insight due to the discourse around it. Basically, a major thing about the Civil Rights Act that is criticized is that it limits the application of the “Freedom of Association”

Huh that’s interesting. Bro switched sides for a second. Maybe they could’ve changed some things in the act? Or maybe did it somehow differently. My sister was saying how it didn’t exactly sound racist but it confused me

What this means is that in many instances, a private individual may be forced to provide services to someone they don’t want to provide them to on grounds of personal or religious beliefs.

Otherwise, they can be found discriminatory if they refused to comply. Now these reasons are entirely pedantic, and CRA1964 was enormously important into (nearly) normalizing race relations/rights that its limited drawbacks are minuscule in consequence

Once again, I don’t agree with anyone who believes it should be repealed (at least, if not replaced with superior wording and intent) and I just happen to understand the argument.
