Though I would agree that seeing "anti-racism" behind every corner is also a vice. My point was that race, whether racism or "anti-racism", is very low on the list of problems, especially problems afflicting minorities. Republicans understand this better than Democrats. Nothing more. I dont think “discovering alleged reverse discrimination” is itself a virtue, I think the fact that Republicans dont see racism behind every corner is.

I think we deserve an explanation about how you feel an obsession with discovering alleged reverse discrimination can be a "virtue". It certainly seems like a flaw to me. “This is actually true and though Yglesias views it as a flaw, I see it as a virtue.”
