Dude, we evolved on different continents for 50,000 years. We look different. Our bodies' biochemistry differs (different medications for whites + blacks for blood pressure). Why do you think brains came out the same? They didn't, and all the hard data, and all the evidence of everyone's eyes - how black vs white, or other populations, live, shows that. It's ugly, it's not nice, people don't know what to do about it, it's a can of worms, but it's true.

There was an article somewhere recently, of someone proposing changes to CPython for just that reason. Guido had already resisted several attempts at the kind of thing he was doing, from a desire to keep the CPython implementation simple.
I voted for it before reading it - it sucks. The title makes it sound like Glenn Greenwald is saying sorry - I don't see anything like that in there. His name gets a couple of mentions, but it's about some no-name former marine changing /his/ mind. I regret my upvote.
edit: Ah, I mis-read the title, I see he's saying sorry to Glenn Greenwald. No harm no foul, but I still wouldn't have upvoted.
