• We can ask propsective babies if they'd rather be born into a dysfunctional lower-class white family in Middlesborough or a wealthy black family in West London.

    Good luck with that? It's a strange thing to say really.
    You might not be able to choose to be wealthy, although there's the opportunity for that to change, not so much with race, the bit you have to change is the way society treats race, part of which is acknowledging that people are treated differently based on race and and working to remedy it alongside other inequalities, rather than trying to play discrimination top-trumps in a thread about racism.
