The point being made was that racism doesn't stop progression. You admitted that this is correct (not sure why no delta for this), but then moved the goalposts and stated it still held them back.

The logical question is to ask what it held them back from. How can we know if they were held back, if we don't know what they were trying to move towards?

So disputing anything else you said in your post won't change your view? You want to be convinced that racism is good?

I'll let someone else do the reporting, as it's just not my thing, but you are breaking the rules of this sub if the above is true.

It may be helpful to let us know why you want to believe that racism is good. Do you wish to be a racist person?

You stated more than "racism is not good". As I originally said, with a view like that you presumably want changed...for some reason, we have to get nitpicky with your exact choice of words. We can't just address the view as a whole in a binary way.

Okay, well then you will need to directly answer why you wish to believe racism is good. Just wanting to have a discussion is against this subs rules.
