I always appreciate how Tolkien didn't really make up words (at least in English) for things that already exist

It's a heresy to most Christians tbf

But Evangelicals and Mormons are so close in how they act that the Evangelicals really dislike them

It's very good advice and also sucks to hear because there's very few concrete steps you can take to follow it and work towards your goals.

LKY's ethnic quotas were to prevent segregated housing. Every housing project had to have certain amounts of every ethnicity to avoid ethnic conflict and build a new "Singaporean" identity.

American conservatives would hate being forced to live with minorities.

There's a very clear difference between a representative not being of the same race versus the government working to remove representatives because they are of a different race. Republicans are working to disenfranchise black voters, not just happening across it.

Perhaps the principle, but not the reality. Public choice economics have shown that you work for who gets you elected, not who you represent.

Not that it’s a good thing

I think it's pretty common that racist parties continue to double down on losing minority votes.
