Yeah, I didn’t wake up expecting to write that today, either (I wonder if Glenn did). Heck, I don’t even know if I agree with this…

…in the same way that he does; but race is such bullshit.
And that’s all I feel like saying on that matter, actually.

PS: Of course, I don’t particularly expect that Ta-Nehisi Coates is ready to abandon the roughly sixteen metaphorical tons of bad liberal/progressive/Democratic policy positions that rely on said bullshit being taken seriously.
There’s only one race, the human race.
I guess that’s why we’re forced to celebrate diversity.
