By making the statement "The competition over whose oppression is worse does not help..." you are doing exactly what you claimed not to do. You are trying to invalidate my argument. All suffering is NOT the same in this country. No other group of people have been victimized by chattel slavery, and then continue to be victimized by white supremacy, racial terrorism & various other racially systemic oppressions, except black people. This has been occurring since this country's inception. The historical facts speak for themselves.
